Oil and gas, where remote never means out of sight

Visibility from the yard to the wellsite

Geotab keeps trucks, crews, and equipment visible on lease roads, with satellite backup.

  • Remote site tracking with satellite-backed options
  • Driver safety on lease roads and highways
  • Equipment hours and maintenance visibility in the field

Beyond Coverage

When cellular ends, tracking does not

GO Anywhere Plus keeps remote assets reporting where cellular does not reach.

  • Beyond-cellular coverage: tanks, generators, and trailers stay on the map, however far out they sit
  • Complete trip records: vehicle trips buffer through dead zones and upload whole when signal returns
  • Driver safety scoring: speeding and harsh events surface before they become incidents
  • Engine hours in the field: service remote equipment on real usage, not guesses

What Changes

What your operation gets out of it

One map for the whole field

Heavy iron, light trucks, tanks, and trailers report into a single view, not four disconnected systems.

Records that stand up

Site time, hours of service, and inspections log themselves, ready when a client or regulator asks.

Our Advice

What we typically install for an oil and gas fleet

Crew trucks and light vehicles

GO9 or Next-Gen GO: full trip records, safety scoring, buffered through dead zones. Plug it into the port, no installer visit.

Heavy field units

GO Rugged, IP68/IP69K. Engine hours off the unit, so service runs on real usage.

Tanks, generators, and trailers past coverage

We split the asset list with you: which units earn the wired satellite tracker, which run battery-only.

High-risk drivers and lone workers

A GO Focus Plus AI camera adds road and in-cab context, with fatigue and distraction alerts on the long hauls.

The Real Problems

The three risks an HSE manager actually loses sleep over

01
The drive is the most dangerous part of the job

Speeding and harsh events scored per driver, with in-cab alerts. The average injury crash costs nearly $400,000 (FMCSA, 2024).

02
Assets go dark past the coverage line

GO Anywhere Plus reports over satellite, so equipment past the last tower behaves like equipment in town.

03
Journey management lives on a whiteboard

Geofence arrival and overdue alerts make check-in automatic, with a record that stands up in an investigation.

Built for remote operations

What we set up for oil and gas fleets

Coverage is step one. These are the zones, rules, and reports we configure so the field runs on data, from the pad to the back office.

Pad and yard geofences

Every pad, yard, and lease entrance zoned, so time on site records itself for billing and HSE.

Scheduled reports to the office

Site time, exceptions, and utilization delivered automatically, no one exporting spreadsheets.

Digital inspections and HOS

DVIRs and hours-of-service captured in the field, ready for audit.

Groups by district

Supervisors see their pads and crews; HSE sees the whole operation.

Fuel and idle rules

Idling thresholds set yard by yard, so heavy units and light trucks each get a limit that fits.

Configured and supported here

We build it before the first run, and support it after, U.S.-based.

Configured, not generic

Rules tuned to your operation

Need a zone moved or an alert added mid-job? You call your team here and it is handled, not a ticket into a vendor queue.

Idle Time By Yard

Idling, broken out by group

See which yards burn fuel standing still and set idling rules where they pay off fastest.

Questions

Oil and gas fleet FAQ

Do we have to wire every asset?

No. Battery GO Anywhere trackers self-install on tanks, trailers, and staged equipment with no wiring, three to five years per battery. Wired GO Anywhere Plus units go on assets where you also want engine hours and satellite reporting.

Can I monitor for safety in the field?

Yes. Speeding, harsh driving, and seatbelt use are tracked, and AI cameras add road and in-cab context for lone-worker safety.

What about heavy and specialized assets?

GO Rugged and GO Anywhere cover heavy equipment, tanks, and trailers alongside light vehicles.

What happens to the data when a truck is out of coverage for hours?

Nothing is lost. The GO device stores the trip and uploads the complete record when coverage returns. For fixed assets that live beyond cellular, GO Anywhere Plus adds Starlink Direct-to-Cell satellite connectivity so reporting never pauses.

Can we run journey management without buying another platform?

Yes. Zones, arrival windows, overdue alerts, and after-hours movement rules are all native MyGeotab. We configure them around your pads, yards, and routes so the journey board runs itself.

Can we service remote equipment on actual hours?

Yes. Wired GO Anywhere Plus units report engine hours and ignition state, and GO Rugged does the same on heavy units. Maintenance reminders trigger on real usage wherever the asset sits.
