Oil, Gas and Energy Safety Management
Oil and gas is consistently one of the highest-fatality industries in the United States, and power generation, utility and renewable energy crews face many of the same exposures. Process safety failures, struck-by incidents, toxic gas, energized equipment and falls from elevation drive the majority of serious injuries and deaths. The TRIR for oil and gas extraction runs nearly double the all-industry average.
The platforms that actually move that number are the ones your field personnel, safety coordinators, and HSE managers will use. That means at the wellsite, on the platform, in the refinery, at the power plant and on the wind or solar site, not just at a desk.

The Problem
HSE leaders in oil, gas and energy are not short on procedures. They're short on field execution, real-time visibility, and documentation that holds up when a regulator, insurer, or operator walks through the gate.
An active wellsite, pipeline corridor, refinery or power plant generates more safety data in a single day than a typical platform can process in a week. That data includes:
What Disconnected Tools Cost You
Process safety events that a management of change review would have caught.
Qualification gaps that only surface after an incident or a Veriforce audit.
Reports go unfiled when the process needs a laptop and a desk.
OSHA 300 logs that don't match incident records once an inspection starts.
Higher workers' comp premiums and bids blocked by prequalification score minimums.
Time spent rebuilding records instead of running the safety program.
EHS Insight closes that gap with one mobile platform, built around the workflows oil, gas and energy HSE programs run every day, from the wellsite to the boardroom.
Hazard Control
High-pressure systems, toxic gas, energized equipment, remote sites and large contractor crews under simultaneous permits. Each capability maps to a hazard you need to control before it causes harm.
01
Track Tier 1 and Tier 2 events under API RP 754 with PHA action items, mechanical integrity results and MOC records. Each LOC event feeds root cause analysis and corrective actions, so lessons from one asset reach the whole fleet.
02
Hydrogen sulfide can be fatal at high concentrations. Manage H2S training and expiration dates, control entry permits for high-H2S areas and link atmospheric readings to each permit record.
03
Standardize lifting plans, pre-use inspections, rigger qualifications and dropped object checklists by asset and crew. Observations that flag unsecured loads or unqualified operators become corrective actions before the next lift.
04
Hot work permitting, atmospheric testing, fire watch verification, and equipment isolation records all attach to the location, crew, and date of the work.
Hot work permits walk crews through built-in safety prompts. Crews confirm atmospheric testing was performed, fire control equipment is on hand, and isolation steps are in place.
Each response ties to the location, crew, and date of the work. The completed permit is timestamped and auditable from the first signature through close-out.
05
Most oil and gas fatalities happen in the contract workforce. Manage prequalification status, COIs, EMR records, training and site orientations for every crew, with ISNetworld, Veriforce and Avetta data kept current.
06
Power plants, substations and wind and solar sites add energized equipment and climbs to the risk profile. Issue energized electrical and work-at-height permits, keep LOTO and fall protection inspections current, and confirm NFPA 70E and climb training before crews start work.

Core Modules
Oil and gas customers use Incident Management more than any other EHS Insight module, and not by a small margin. In this industry, a single incident can trigger a fatality investigation, BSEE enforcement action, or a contractor prequalification score review. Fast capture, classification, and investigation is the difference between a controlled response and a cascading crisis.
EHS Insight captures injuries, illnesses, process safety events, near misses, environmental releases, vehicle incidents, and property damage from any device in the field in minutes. Tier 1 and Tier 2 process safety events are classified per API RP 754 at the point of entry. Built-in OSHA 300, 300A, and 301 forms update the recordable log automatically.
Out of the box, the module supports several root cause analysis methods, including 5 Why. A configurable causal analysis mechanism also accommodates rapid cause analysis, TapRoot®, TopSet, Scat, ICAM, BCCA, CFA, and RCA.
Explore Incident Management
Oil and gas operations face more overlapping audit obligations than almost any other industry. These include:
EHS Insight’s Audit Management module runs mobile inspections for wellheads, pressure vessels, lifting equipment, turbines, transformers, and fire suppression. It also covers personal gas monitors, PPE, and any other asset or system requiring a documented review. Build custom checklists per asset type, location, and regulatory standard.
Deficiencies automatically trigger a corrective action with owner, due date, and photo evidence. Overdue findings appear on the dashboard before the next audit cycle arrives. Every completed audit is timestamped, signed, and available for regulator or third-party review within seconds.

Oil and gas HSE teams manage compliance obligations across more regulatory bodies simultaneously than nearly any other industry. These obligations all run on independent calendars, and every missed deadline carries enforcement exposure:
EHS Insight’s Compliance Task module centralizes recurring obligations into a single tracked register. Each task carries an owner, a due date, a recurrence schedule, and an escalation path. Nothing slips because it was in someone’s email inbox.
The compliance dashboard shows every open obligation, its owner, and its days-to-due across every asset and business unit. Your HSE director sees the exposure before the deadline passes, not after.
Explore Compliance Tasks
Work observations are the leading indicator that separates the oil, gas and energy programs that drive TRIR down from the ones that react after the fact. Unsafe conditions on remote pads, pipeline rights-of-way, offshore platforms, and wind and solar sites go unseen for hours or days unless there’s a structured, frictionless way to report them.
EHS Insight makes a work observation a 30-second submission from any crew member on any device, anywhere on the asset. Crews log a safe condition, unsafe condition, safe act, or unsafe act, with photo and GPS location attached. Observation data rolls into dashboards that surface patterns across assets, crews, and time periods.
Programs using this module consistently see near-miss reporting rates increase as the barrier to submit drops. That is precisely what the API RP 754 Tier 3/4 indicators, and every serious incident review, tell you to track.
Explore Work Observations
Pre-tour safety meetings and toolbox talks are a daily operational requirement in oil and gas. They happen on drilling rigs, at production facilities and power plants, before pipeline and line maintenance crews start a shift, and at every turnaround and outage kickoff.
The problem isn’t running them. It’s proving they happened when a regulator, prime contractor, or insurance auditor asks for the record six months later.
EHS Insight logs the meeting topic, attendees, sign-off, and any action items assigned, digitally, from a phone, in real time. Safety meeting completion rates by crew, asset, and shift appear on the dashboard as a leading indicator. The record is timestamped and retrievable in seconds, not filed in a binder somewhere on the rig.

It is a platform that helps upstream, midstream and downstream operators run their HSE program from one system. It typically covers JHAs, permit to work, inspections, incident reporting, PSM documentation, OSHA 300 recordkeeping, training, observations and contractor management, replacing paper and disconnected tools with one mobile record across every asset.
Yes. The same platform supports generating plants, transmission and distribution crews, and wind and solar operations. Teams use it for energized electrical, LOTO and work-at-height permits, substation and turbine inspections, OSHA 1910.269 and NFPA 70E training records, contractor oversight for outages and construction, and incident reporting from the field, even offline. See how it supports utility operations.
Yes. EHS Insight supports the key elements of OSHA 1910.119, including PHA action item tracking, MOC workflows, mechanical integrity records, hot work permits, contractor safety, incident investigation with root cause analysis and compliance audits. It provides the documentation backbone for all 14 PSM elements.
Yes. EHS Insight classifies and tracks Tier 1 and Tier 2 process safety events, plus the Tier 3 and Tier 4 indicators, such as near misses and unsafe conditions, that warn of future loss of containment. PSE data feeds the analytics dashboard for trending and benchmarking.
Yes. EHS Insight manages the records that feed ISNetworld, Veriforce, Avetta and ComplyWorks, including EMR records, OSHA 300 logs, training matrices, COIs and incident history. Keeping that data current reduces the score impact of documentation gaps on your profiles.
Yes. Inspection, JHA, permit, observation and incident workflows run offline on iOS and Android. Records sync when the device reconnects, so offshore rotations, remote pads, and wind and solar sites with intermittent or satellite-only coverage keep a complete record.
Yes. EHS Insight supports SEMS documentation under BSEE, including hazard analysis, management of change, operating procedures, safe work practices, training, mechanical integrity, pre-startup review, emergency response, incident investigation, audits, records management and stop work authority.
Experience Modification Rate is driven by the frequency and cost of workers' comp claims over a rolling three-year period. That includes contractor incidents that count against the operator's recordable log.
EHS Insight reduces both frequency and cost in three ways:
Lower TRIR and DART over time pull EMR down. That directly reduces premium and protects prequalification scores that have EMR ceilings.
Most oil and gas customers run their core modules, including incident reporting, permit to work, inspections, JHAs and training, within weeks. Customer success and implementation support come with every subscription.
