BP Coke's lab facilities are located in Huntington Beach, California.
BP Coke can offer an unusually broad spectrum of carbon-related research and testing, including crude assaying and fractionation, coking, calcining, anode fabrication, anode baking, anode testing, core analyses, etc. The Huntington Beach facility can also draw on resources and specialized equipment and tests at BP's Carson and Cherry Point refineries.
BP Coke maintains an exhaustive mainframe-based historical quality information system at Huntington Beach, allowing rapid retrieval, comparison, and historization of relevant data.
