John Lawrie Tubulars Acquires RB Johnson Engineering, Expanding Drilling Market Product Offering

John Lawrie Tubulars ("JLT"), a leading supplier of steel piling products, geotechnical and geo-foundation solutions to the construction and drilling industries, today announced the acquisition of RB Johnson Engineering ("RBJ"), a manufacturer of drilling tooling products.

This strategic move strengthens John Lawrie Tubulars' position in the drilling market and enhances its product range to supply drilling equipment for the site investigation, mineral exploration, water well construction, geothermal, and environmental monitoring markets.

The combination of JLT and RBJ will allow JLT to offer a complete drilling product range, from dynamic sampling through to rotary coring, wireline coring, open hole drilling, friction welded rods and casing.

Under the agreement, RB Johnson Engineering will become part of the John Lawrie Tubulars brand, bringing together complementary expertise, inventory and technologies.

The integration process will begin immediately, with both companies committed to ensuring a seamless transition for employees, customers and partners.

In addition, RB Johnson Engineering will continue operating from a central, easily accessible location in the heart of England, just off Junction 30 of the M1, enabling swift and efficient deliveries while also providing customers with a convenient walk-in trade counter facility.

Quote from Iain Laing, Managing Director, John Lawrie Tubulars

"This acquisition marks a significant expansion for JLT and allows us to offer an extended product range to our customers," said Iain Laing, Managing Director of John Lawrie Tubulars.

"By combining our strengths, we can now offer complete drilling tooling packages to customers across a wider range of drilling applications and projects.

I welcome Ray Johnson and his team to John Lawrie Tubulars UK & Europe and look forward to working with them as we continue to grow our presence within the drilling industry."

A different perspective on our operations. 🏗️

Taking a bird’s-eye view of our Montrose yard highlights the scale, organisation, and capability behind every order we deliver.

From extensive tubular stock management to efficient handling and logistics, every area of our facility plays a role in ensuring our customers receive the right products, when they need them.

Behind every steel tube is a dedicated team, a carefully managed process, and the experience required to support demanding industries across the UK and beyond.
Proud of our people, our facilities, and the work that happens every day on the ground.

Moving steel pipes manually was once one of the biggest bottlenecks in our operation. Our automated steel pipe handling systems fixed that!

Our automation has helped:

✔ Improve workplace safety by reducing manual handling
✔ Increase throughput with faster, more consistent pipe movement
✔ Minimise production downtime and bottlenecks
✔ Improve workflow across the facility
✔ Allow our team to focus on higher-value tasks

Investing in automation isn't just about increasing efficiency—it's about creating a smarter, and more productive manufacturing environment that is built for the future.

Precision and quality you can trust—it's why we're proud to put our name to it!

Our newly engraved logo on our tool joints is more than just a mark. It represents the quality, precision, and craftsmanship that go into every component we manufacture.

From machining to final inspection, quality is at the heart of everything we do. We're proud to stand behind every product that leaves our workshop.

It's a small detail, but it means a lot to us. Every engraved tool joint represents the hard work, skill, and attention to detail that goes into manufacturing our products. If our name is on it, you can be confident we've built it to the standard we'd expect ourselves.
