Oil, Gas & Mining Software Development
Extractive operations are measured on two things regulators and boards both care about: what came out of the ground, and whether anyone got hurt getting it. Both are recorded at the site, usually by people wearing gloves in poor light with no signal. Software that ignores that reality gets replaced by a paper register within a month.
The Challenge & The Orus Solution
We turn complex business challenges into resilient, scalable digital systems.
The problem
Production, consumption and downtime are recorded on paper at the face and keyed in days later. By the time the number reaches management it is both late and unverifiable.
Safety incidents and near-misses are under-reported because reporting is a form nobody wants to fill in. The near-miss that predicted an incident is then invisible until after the incident.
- Production figures arriving days late and impossible to verify
- Near-misses under-reported, so leading indicators are missing
- Statutory HSE returns assembled by hand from paper registers
- Equipment maintained on a calendar rather than on running hours
- Contractor compliance documents expiring without anyone noticing
Our solution
Capture happens at the point of work on a rugged device or ordinary phone, offline, with a photograph attached. A production figure carries who recorded it, when and where, which is what makes it defensible.
Near-miss reporting is reduced to a few taps with a photograph, because reporting rate is a function of friction. Analysis then works on a dataset that actually reflects the site.
- Offline-first capture at the face, with photographic evidence
- Near-miss reporting short enough that it actually happens
- Statutory HSE returns generated from recorded data
- Maintenance triggered by running hours and condition, not the calendar
- Contractor document validity tracked with expiry alerting
Software solutions we build
Tailored services and software modules designed around your exact business model, tech stack, and growth goals.
Production and dispatch
Extraction, grade, stockpile movement and despatch weighed and recorded with reconciliation against weighbridge data.
HSE management
Incident and near-miss reporting, investigation workflow, corrective actions and statutory return preparation.
Permit to work
Digital permits with hazard assessment, isolation confirmation, sign-off chain and expiry enforcement.
Asset and maintenance
Heavy equipment tracked on running hours with preventive schedules, breakdown history and spares consumption.
Contractor management
Induction records, competency certificates, insurance and licence validity with alerting before expiry.
Fuel and consumables
Issue against equipment and shift, with consumption per operating hour surfaced as a cost figure.
Environmental monitoring
Water, air and noise readings recorded in the formats pollution control boards require.
Shift and workforce
Rosters, attendance at remote sites, and competency matched to the task being assigned.
Security & compliance first
Extractive operations are among the most heavily inspected sectors in India.
Why businesses choose Orus Studio
We design for gloves, dust and no signal
The capture screens are deliberately minimal because anything slower gets replaced by paper.
Near
miss reporting that people use — Reporting rate is a friction problem, not a culture problem, and we treat it that way.
Costs attach to equipment
Fuel, spares and downtime post against the machine, so cost per operating hour is measured rather than estimated.
Built to be inspected
Statutory registers come out of the same data the operation runs on, not a parallel record.
Who this is for
- Mining operators running open-cast or underground sites
- Oil and gas operators managing field assets and contractors
- Quarrying and aggregates businesses with weighbridge dispatch
- Heavy industrial sites with statutory HSE obligations
- Operations where production data reaches management days late
What you get
- Production and dispatch tracking with reconciliation
- HSE and permit-to-work system
- Asset maintenance on running hours
- Contractor compliance tracking
- Statutory register and return preparation
- Offline-first site capture app
