Upstream (Exploration and Production) Audit App turns upstream (exploration and production) audits into a scored, repeatable programme. Auditors score each upstream against weighted criteria, attach photo evidence, and track corrective actions to verified closure across every site. Managers compare upstream (exploration and production) audit scores across sites and track every corrective action to closure.
What is Upstream (Exploration and Production) Audit App?
Upstream (Exploration and Production) Audit App runs a scored upstream audit covering wellhead, valves, and pressure control, separators, vessels, and relief devices, hydrocarbon leaks and gas detection, well integrity and barrier status, and flare, vent, and produced water, with a photo and a sign-off required on each point. Without a system, upstream findings live on paper and in chat. An upstream fault such as wellhead or valve integrity loss slips through. An audit then means rebuilding upstream evidence from folders.
Upstream (Exploration and Production) Audit App keeps one record per upstream and per site, with photo evidence and a named sign-off. Each upstream finding is tracked to verified closure. Upstream operations and integrity teams see upstream completion and overdue actions across the energy & utilities portfolio. Every upstream record proves what was checked, when, and by whom.
What to Include in an Upstream (Exploration and Production) Audit App?
A comprehensive upstream audit covers the key areas that affect operations and compliance. Audit upstream exploration and production operations with structured scoring, evidence capture, and follow-up workflows. Your audit should include sections for wellhead, valves, and pressure control; separators, vessels, and relief devices; and hydrocarbon leaks and gas detection, evidence capture, pass/fail or scoring criteria, corrective action assignment, and sign-off, so that nothing is missed and every audit finding is traceable.
How to Use Upstream (Exploration and Production) Audit App
A scored audit only helps if every auditor scores the same way. Follow these steps to run an upstream (exploration and production) audit:
Open the upstream (exploration and production) audit template, which carries weighted criteria and a scoring scheme.
Score each upstream against the criteria and attach photo evidence for any non-conformance.
Let the app calculate the section and overall upstream (exploration and production) score so the site is comparable to others.
Raise a corrective action for each failed upstream (exploration and production) criterion with an owner and due date.
Sign off the upstream (exploration and production) audit. The scorecard and branded report generate automatically.
What Does an Upstream Audit Cover?
An upstream audit scores condition against well integrity standards and offshore and onshore safety case rules, checking wellhead, valves, and pressure control, separators, vessels, and relief devices, hydrocarbon leaks and gas detection, well integrity and barrier status, flare, vent, and produced water, and permits, isolations, and safety systems. Each upstream finding is logged with a photo, a severity, and the failing point. So the upstream audit becomes a traceable evidence pack, not an ageing spreadsheet.

What Upstream (Exploration and Production) Teams Fix When Audits Are Scored the Same Way Everywhere
Upstream (Exploration and Production) work breaks down the moment evidence leaves the form. These are the problems Upstream (Exploration and Production) Audit App is built to remove, and what the team gets back when it does.
Upstream (Exploration and Production) data is scattered across spreadsheets, photos, and chat
Some upstream (exploration and production) records sit in Excel, some in a WhatsApp group, some in a folder of photos. There is no single source of truth for the upstream, so every upstream (exploration and production) question takes an hour and three people to answer.
Problem
Upstream (Exploration and Production) records split across Excel, chat, and photo folders
No single trusted version of the upstream record
Answering a simple upstream (exploration and production) question takes hours
Solution
One system of record for every upstream (exploration and production) check and finding
Every upstream photo and action tied to its record
Search any site or upstream and get an answer instantly
Every auditor scores the upstream (exploration and production) audit differently, so sites cannot be compared
One auditor is strict, another is lenient, and a third skips sections. The upstream (exploration and production) audit scores come back, but leadership cannot tell whether a low score means a weak site or a tough auditor.
Problem
Upstream (Exploration and Production) scoring depends on which auditor showed up
Upstream sections get skipped with no record
Upstream (Exploration and Production) scores are not comparable across sites
Solution
Weighted upstream (exploration and production) criteria baked into the audit template
Mandatory upstream sections, so nothing is skipped
Comparable upstream (exploration and production) scores that roll up across the estate
Assigned contractor signs off the upstream fix, and nobody checks it
A defect on the upstream is handed to assigned contractor. A week later the upstream defect is marked closed. Whether the upstream work was done well, badly, or at all, nobody has verified.
Problem
Assigned contractor marks work closed with no verification
Poor upstream fixes are only found at the next inspection
No record of which upstream (exploration and production) partners actually perform
Solution
Closure photo required before any upstream (exploration and production) action is signed off
Assigned contractor performance scored on closure speed and re-opens
Re-opened upstream actions linked back to the original finding
Frequently Asked Questions
What does Upstream (Exploration and Production) Audit App check on an upstream audit?
Upstream (Exploration and Production) Audit App runs a scored upstream audit against well integrity standards and offshore and onshore safety case rules, checking wellhead, valves, and pressure control, separators, vessels, and relief devices, hydrocarbon leaks and gas detection, well integrity and barrier status, and flare, vent, and produced water. Each finding is logged with a photo, a severity, and the point it fails, then routed to an owner with a deadline. It stays open until a reviewer verifies the fix, so the audit becomes a traceable evidence pack for upstream operations and integrity teams rather than an ageing spreadsheet. Because scoring is built into the template, two sites assessed by two people produce numbers you can compare fairly.
Which upstream defects matter most, and what happens if they are missed?
The audit targets the upstream failures that matter most: wellhead or valve integrity loss, relief device or vessel defects, hydrocarbon leaks or gas detection faults, and well barrier failures. Left unchecked, a fault such as wellhead or valve integrity loss 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 upstream operations and integrity 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 Upstream (Exploration and Production) Audit App support for upstream work?
Upstream (Exploration and Production) Audit App keeps upstream checks aligned to well integrity standards and offshore and onshore safety case rules. 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, upstream operations and integrity 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 upstream checks offline and across multiple sites?
Yes. Upstream (Exploration and Production) Audit App is offline-first: teams complete upstream 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 upstream operations and integrity 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 an upstream audit was completed?
Every completed upstream audit carries wellhead photo, relief device record, and gas detection test note, a GPS location, a timestamp, and a named sign-off. Because the evidence is captured during the round rather than typed up afterwards, upstream operations and integrity 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.
