ODOS Rigs

From the plod sheet to the paid invoice, without the paperwork.

Shift reports, fleet, crews, plant hire, maintenance, stock and billing for drilling contractors, built to work where the signal does not.

Built for: Drilling contractors and plant hire companies

The problem we solve

On a drilling contract, the money is made on site and lost in the paperwork. Plod sheets get rained on, rig hours go unrecorded, consumables walk off, and invoices go out weeks late with standby nobody can prove.

ODOS Rigs puts the plod in the driller’s hand, even with no signal. Shifts are captured as a timeline of activities, approved by the supervisor, signed off by the client, and turned into an invoice with the full supporting schedule attached.

What's inside

Everything Rigs does for you

  • Digital plods

    Capture every shift as a timeline of activity codes: drilling, standby, breakdown. Productive metres and hours are calculated for you, then submitted for approval.

  • Offline field mode

    An installable app for the rig that works with no connection at all and syncs safely, without duplicates, the moment it finds signal.

  • Projects and holes on a map

    Every collar on satellite imagery, with planned versus drilled depth so you always know where each programme stands.

  • Fleet, maintenance and telematics

    A register of rigs and plant with hour meters, service intervals and work orders. Feed engine hours from trackers automatically, and tag every asset with a QR code.

  • Plant hire

    Quote, put on hire and return equipment with a full timeline, then bill off-hired plant alongside drilling work.

  • Stock and consumables

    Bits, rods and consumables tracked per yard and per rig. Approved plods draw stock down automatically, and billable items flow straight onto the invoice.

Workflows

Every breakdown, rig move and delivery on a job card.

Run the work around the drilling with the same discipline as the drilling itself. Each job type has its own board, states, owners and time limits, and the job card carries the parts, labour and sign-off from start to finish. Many jobs raise themselves.

Client portal

Let the client sign off the plod, not argue about it.

Share a secure link with each client. They see their projects and holes, sign off approved plods or raise a query against them, and view every invoice. Disputes get settled in days, not months.

  • Invoices built from approved plods: metres, standby and ancillaries
  • Client and per-project rates
  • Crew register and roster grid
  • Email invoices and reports directly from the app

Works with

  • Vehicle trackers & telematics
  • Satellite imagery maps
  • QR asset tags
  • Email delivery
  • PDF & CSV export
  • Offline-capable devices

What changes

  • Invoice at month end, not month end plus six weeks
  • Prove every standby hour with a signed record
  • Service plant on time, before it breaks down on site
