Oilfield field app for drivers and field crewAn app that works in the truck, with gloves on.

Gloves on, sun on the screen, forty miles out with no phone signal. That is the day it was built for. You get a short list of your own jobs and a few taps to log what you did. Nobody types it again.

Blue Sage’s My Day on a driver’s phone: on shift and up to date, two of four stops done, a note that the plan changed, and the next stop at Buckhorn 33-1 with Start route, Map and the tickets he could get signed there.

Your day

You know the job. The paperwork is what slows you down.

You know every well site (the drilling pad where the work is) by heart. What you do not need is a clipboard blowing across a dirt road, a ticket riding in the door pocket for a week, and a phone call at 4pm asking how many gallons went into the generator on Tuesday.

The app makes the fastest thing to do also the right thing to do. Log it at the well site in a few taps, and you are done.

What the app puts in front of you

Your stops, in order, and a fuel log you can do with gloves on.

The next stop is at the top. Log the work at the well site and be done.

  • Your day, in order — Your jobs for today, in the order the office set, or in your own order if your company allows it. The next stop is at the top with a Map button and a Log fuel button. At sites pinned on the map, the app records your arrival on its own. The card changes and the on-site clock starts without you tapping anything.
  • A fuel log you can do with gloves on — Site, unit, gallons, and a photo of the gauge. Buttons sized for a gloved thumb, and a sun mode with type big enough to read at noon. The truck’s fuel total updates on its own.
  • It works with no signal — With no signal, fuel logs, service calls, hours, tickets and photos wait on the phone. They send themselves when the truck is back in range. You do not have to remember to send anything.
  • A ticket that makes itself — Every fuel delivery, equipment delivery and pickup makes its own numbered ticket with the photos on it. If someone from the customer is at the site, give them the phone: they print their name and sign. If nobody is there, which is most of the time, leave it and collect the signature next visit. It never stops you finishing the job.
Blue Sage’s field Toolbox on a phone: tiles for viewing assignments, logging a fuel delivery, filling the truck, fuel tanks left at sites, scanning a unit, an inspection and reporting a problem — most of them marked with a small cloud.
The cloud on a tile means that one works with no signal: it saves on the phone and sends itself when you are back in range.

Talk instead of type. And a button for help.

A mic to log what you did, an SOS button when you need help, and a way to fix your own hours without calling the office.

  • Say it insteadGrowth — Press the mic and say what you did: “pumped 20 into the generator and 35 into the heater.” Dispatch Copilot fills in the form and shows you a card. It can be wrong, so you check it and tap Confirm. Nothing is saved until you do. Copilot needs an internet connection; with no signal you use the regular screens. What you confirm is saved and sent the same way as everything else.
  • One button when it goes wrong — An SOS button at the top of the field app. One press sends a help request with your location to the office, and “Help is on the way” comes back to your phone. It needs some phone signal to send. It reaches your own office, not an emergency service.
  • Location sharing is your choice — Sharing where you are is your own setting, unless your company turns it on for everyone on the clock. If it does, the app tells you on your screen. While you share, the phone checks in about every 45 seconds. Nothing is recorded off the clock, and recorded trips are deleted after 30 days.
  • Your own hours, your own fix — Forgot to clock out? Fix it yourself within the number of days your company allows, and say why. The change is recorded. No phone call to the office, and no argument on Friday.

Just as important

Nothing in the field waits on the office.

Nothing in the field is blocked because a rate is missing or a signature was not collected — those are office problems and they stay in the office. It never asks you to type anything twice, either.
