Derrick Inspection App runs structured derrick inspections across every site. Inspectors complete forms on a phone or tablet, capture photo and voice evidence on each derrick, and raise corrective actions the moment something fails. Managers see derrick compliance status, open issues, and performance across every site in real time.
Derrick Inspection App runs a structured derrick inspection covering main members, welds, and corrosion, bolt torque and pin condition, crown block and sheaves, racking board and fingerboards, and ladders, platforms, and fall arrest, with a photo and a sign-off required on each point. Without a system, derrick findings live on paper and in chat. A derrick fault such as corrosion or cracked members slips through. An audit then means rebuilding derrick evidence from folders.
Derrick Inspection App keeps one record per derrick and per site, with photo evidence and a named sign-off. Each derrick finding is tracked to verified closure. Rig and structural inspection teams see derrick completion and overdue actions across the energy & utilities portfolio. Every derrick record proves what was checked, when, and by whom.
What to Include in a Derrick Inspection App?
A comprehensive derrick inspection covers the key areas that affect operations and compliance. Inspect derricks with structural, access, and rigging checkpoints plus defect logging. Your inspection should include sections for main members, welds, and corrosion; bolt torque and pin condition; and crown block and sheaves, evidence capture, pass/fail or scoring criteria, corrective action assignment, and sign-off, so that nothing is missed and every inspection finding is traceable.
How to Use Derrick Inspection App
A consistent routine keeps derrick inspections reliable across every site. Follow these steps to run an effective inspection:
Open the assigned derrick template on a phone or tablet and confirm the site, derrick, date, and inspector.
Work through each section, marking items pass or fail and recording the condition of the derrick.
Attach a photo or voice note for any finding, especially corrosion or cracked members, loose or missing bolts, worn crown sheaves, fall-arrest or platform defects.
For every failed derrick item, raise a corrective action with an owner, severity, and due date.
Sign off the derrick form. The derrick report generates automatically and syncs to the multi-site dashboard.
What Does a Derrick Inspection Cover?
A derrick inspection covers main members, welds, and corrosion, bolt torque and pin condition, crown block and sheaves, racking board and fingerboards, ladders, platforms, and fall arrest, and dropped-object surveys. Rig and structural inspection teams capture a photo and a reading on each derrick point. They work offline where signal is poor, then sign the derrick round off. So every derrick record proves what was checked, when, and by whom.

How Derrick Inspection App Runs a Derrick Inspection
Step 1
Define and Deploy
Build the derrick template with objective pass-fail criteria and schedule it to mobile teams.
Step 2
Capture and Verify
Inspectors run the inspection with photo evidence on each finding, such as corrosion or cracked members, loose or missing bolts, worn crown sheaves, fall-arrest or platform defects, and failed items raise corrective actions.
Step 3
Report and Improve
Dashboards built on verified derrick data reveal recurring patterns on the derrick across every site.

What Derrick Teams Fix When Inspections Move Off Paper
Derrick work breaks down the moment evidence leaves the form. These are the problems Derrick Inspection App is built to remove, and what the team gets back when it does.
Derrick checks signed off on paper with no proof the derrick was actually checked
A derrick inspection is ticked off on a paper form. Weeks later someone asks whether the derrick was actually checked, and whether corrosion or cracked members, loose or missing bolts, worn crown sheaves, fall-arrest or platform defects were looked at. Nobody can say for certain the derrick passed.
Problem
Derrick checks recorded on paper with no evidence attached
No way to confirm corrosion or cracked members, loose or missing bolts, worn crown sheaves, fall-arrest or platform defects were actually inspected
Derrick findings re-keyed into a spreadsheet, with errors and delay
Solution
One digital derrick form with required fields and validation
Photo, GPS, and timestamp on every derrick check
Derrick findings sync to the dashboard, no re-keying
The same derrick defect comes back every cycle
Corrosion or cracked members, loose or missing bolts, worn crown sheaves, fall-arrest or platform defects on the derrick are fixed, then reappear weeks later. Each derrick defect is treated as fresh because nobody sees it is the third time this quarter. The derrick root cause is never addressed.
Derrick data is scattered across spreadsheets, photos, and chat
Some derrick records sit in Excel, some in a WhatsApp group, some in a folder of photos. There is no single source of truth for the derrick, so every derrick question takes an hour and three people to answer.
Problem
Derrick records split across Excel, chat, and photo folders
No single trusted version of the derrick record
Answering a simple derrick question takes hours
Solution
One system of record for every derrick check and finding
Every derrick photo and action tied to its record
Search any site or derrick and get an answer instantly
Frequently Asked Questions
What does Derrick Inspection App check on a derrick inspection?
Derrick Inspection App runs a structured derrick inspection covering main members, welds, and corrosion, bolt torque and pin condition, crown block and sheaves, racking board and fingerboards, and ladders, platforms, and fall arrest. Each point is captured on mobile with a photo and a reading, and a named inspector signs the round off before it can close. The same template runs on every site, so rig and structural inspection teams work to one standard rather than a version that drifts between locations. Every record proves what was checked, when, and by whom, so the evidence is ready long before an assessor asks for it.
Which derrick defects matter most, and what happens if they are missed?
The inspection targets the derrick failures that matter most: corrosion or cracked members, loose or missing bolts, worn crown sheaves, and fall-arrest or platform defects. Left unchecked, a fault such as corrosion or cracked members can mean downtime, a safety incident, or a failed audit, so every finding becomes an owned task with a deadline. It stays open until photo proof of the repair is reviewed, and repeat problems are flagged so rig and structural inspection teams fix the cause rather than the symptom. Prioritising by severity means the most serious issues are handled first, not whichever was reported loudest.
Which standards does Derrick Inspection App support for derrick work?
Derrick Inspection App keeps derrick checks aligned to API derrick and mast standards and work at height regulations. The photos and readings each standard expects are required fields, so an incomplete check cannot be closed and a gap is caught before an assessor finds it. When a review is due, rig and structural inspection teams pull the records for the site in scope with one search instead of rebuilding them from folders. Retention and history stay searchable, so proof remains defensible at any point, not only on the day of an audit.
Can teams run derrick checks offline and across multiple sites?
Yes. Derrick Inspection App is offline-first: teams complete derrick checks on iOS or Android with no signal, capturing photos and the evidence each check requires in the field. Each record syncs automatically when the connection returns, with its timestamp intact, and the same template runs on every site. So rig and structural inspection teams get a live view of what is complete, overdue, or failing per location, and a weak connection in a remote or low-signal area never costs a round or loses a photo.
What evidence proves a derrick inspection was completed?
Every completed derrick inspection carries member and weld photo, bolt torque log, and crown block photo, a GPS location, a timestamp, and a named sign-off. Because the evidence is captured during the round rather than typed up afterwards, rig and structural inspection teams can show exactly what was checked, when, and by whom. When an assessor or client asks, the record exports in seconds as a branded PDF or a searchable history, so proof never depends on someone remembering where a photo was saved or which folder holds last quarter's records.
