Permits and checks that work in the field

AuditDAT is an oil and gas inspection app for permit, confined space, hot work and LOTO checks in Ghana, Nigeria and similar markets. A fail becomes a job card that stops the work. Checks still finish with no internet. A QR at the gate lets a visitor report a problem.

The problem

The permit is done. The proof is not.

Today

  • The paper permit gets wet, gets lost, or is sent in a group chat.
  • Gas tests and isolation checks sit in a folder in the site cabin.
  • After the job, someone rebuilds the proof.

With AuditDAT

  • Permit, gas-test and isolation inspections run on the phone, even with no signal.
  • A failed reading on the inspection becomes a job card before anyone enters.
  • Control room calls and gate QR reports go into one record.

How it is used

How a site uses AuditDAT

Do permit, confined-space and isolation checks on a phone. Failed items become job cards. Visitors and the control room can add to the same list.

At the job

Fill in the permit on a phone

At the Train 2 pipe rack, the officer confirms the permit is displayed, the fire watch is in place and the gas test is in date. Lifting and site HSE checks work the same way, even with no signal. Signatures and photos stay on the record, and a fail becomes a job card.

Before entry

Record confined space and gas tests

Before anyone enters vessel V-204, the gas reading from the detector goes on the confined-space check, along with the time and whether extra ventilation is needed. If a reading is outside safe limits, it becomes a job card before anyone goes in.

On isolation

Keep LOTO photos with the job

The job card for valve P-12 holds the lockout photos, the owner and the due date. Maintenance closes it with proof when the work is done. Later, you can open the full record for a client or an investigation.

At the gate

Visitors report from a QR

A QR code at the gate or muster point opens a short form. A visitor or contractor can report a hazard, such as loose grating on a walkway, without logging in. The report joins the same list as permit job cards.

In the control room

Log a radio call as a job card

When someone radios in a problem, the control room raises it as a job card. It sits on the list with the permit and isolation jobs, such as an overdue gas test or a missing isolation tag, until someone closes it.

FAQ

Before you book a demo

What software records permit and LOTO checks in the field?

AuditDAT records permit, confined space, hot work and LOTO checks on a phone. A fail becomes a job card that stops the work. Finish the inspection with no internet. Records sync when the phone reconnects.

Does it work on remote wellsites?

Yes. Finish the inspection with no internet. Records and job cards sync when the phone reconnects.

Is there a record we can show a client?

Yes. Each job card keeps the owner, due date and history. That record is useful for clients, audits and investigations.

Can someone without an AuditDAT login report an issue?

Yes. A guest, tenant, contractor or worker scans a QR and reports the issue without an account. No app is needed. The report lands in the same job-card list.

Are actions the same as job cards?

Yes. Actions are job cards. Create them from a failed check, add them yourself, or get them from a QR report. They stay open until someone closes them.
