Why oil & gas teams switch

Oil and gas workforce management, starting with who's on site.

01

A headcount you can trust

The live view lists everyone checked in and not yet checked out at each facility, so the headcount comes from verified check-ins, not a clipboard.

Know who is on site right now →
02

Turnarounds at scale

Hundreds of shutdown contractors are enrolled with a photo at the gate. On Premium, deduplication catches anyone enrolled twice, and their data can be deleted when the job ends.

03

Restricted zones

With access control on Standard or Premium, doors and turnstiles to control rooms and other restricted areas open only for staff cleared to enter.

No helmet, no clock-in →
04

PPE at the gate

On Premium, helmet detection checks for a hard hat during the face check and can flag the check-in.

On site

Rotations and contractors, counted at the gate.

Oil and gas hours are hard to get right because crews work long rotations and contractors come and go by the hundred, often at sites with a weak network link.

On siteHow NCheck handles it
Crew changeRotations such as 14/14 or 28/28 are set as schedules for each crew, and a night shift that crosses midnight counts as one shift. Reports show each person's hours across a hitch for fatigue reviews against your own limits.
Contractor companiesEach contractor is its own group, so its crews' hours report separately when you check its invoices.
Refinery gate at shift changeOn Standard and Premium, an IP camera reads several faces at once as a shift arrives.
Muster pointA station at the muster point records who has arrived, alongside the live view of everyone still checked in on site.
Remote wellsitesField staff use the free Attend app, which records GPS with each check-in, and on Standard and Premium it keeps working offline.

During a 30-day refinery turnaround, 400 contractor staff from 12 companies are enrolled at the main gate in the first week. Each company's hours come out as a separate report for invoice checks, and the site deletes their biometric data once the shutdown ends.

Data and networks

Inside your own perimeter, online or air-gapped.

NCheck On-Premises runs on a server at the facility, online, offline or air-gapped, so attendance never depends on an offshore or satellite link. For sites in the UAE and Saudi Arabia, keeping biometric templates on servers in-country is the simplest answer to data residency rules, and our guide to biometric attendance under the UAE and Saudi PDPL covers consent and transfers.

FAQ

Oil and gas time and attendance questions.

What is oil and gas time and attendance software?

It records when crews and contractors start and finish work, applies rotation and overtime rules, and turns the hours into payroll and contractor reports. A biometric system also confirms each check-in was made by the right person, which matters when hundreds of contractors are on site at once.

Is NCheck a full oil and gas workforce management system?

NCheck covers the attendance side: verified check-ins, rotations and shift rules, contractor hours, access control and visitors, with exports and an API for your payroll and ERP. Job costing and certification tracking stay in the systems you already use.

Can check-in devices go inside hazardous areas?

NCheck runs on standard tablets, terminals and IP cameras, so stations normally sit at the site gate or muster point, outside classified hazardous areas. Check the rating of any device before placing it inside one.

What if a worker won't use biometrics?

Anyone who declines biometrics can check in manually, or by RFID card on Standard and Premium. Our compliance guides by region cover consent rules. This is general guidance, not legal advice.
