You can use a carbide burr in a rotozip or die grinder, but it will spark.
I'd wonder what kind of hydraulic fluid? What is the flashpoint? Have a
Mig Wilder? You can use your argon tank to flood the drum with inert gas
and reduce the risk of fire, but this will become less effective as you cut
more of the lid away. The other option is to intentionally burn out the
fluid before you remove the lid (it will be easier to put a fire out inside
a sealed drum than one with the top cut halfway off)..
