AI for Oil & Gas Safety. Investigation built for process safety.

Remote sites, contract crews on turnarounds, and process risk that can turn catastrophic. Intero investigates each incident to a cited cause your team reviews and signs.

Why Oil & Gas Safety Needs AI

High-consequence failures, diverse contract crews, and complex regulatory environments demand intelligence that manual processes cannot deliver.

Remote locations make centralized safety management difficult. Sites are spread across geographies with limited connectivity and oversight.
Contract crews cycle through during turnarounds and shutdowns. Hundreds of contractors performing high-hazard work simultaneously creates concentrated risk.
Process safety risks carry catastrophic potential. A single failure in containment, isolation, or monitoring can lead to fires, explosions, or toxic releases.
Complex regulatory requirements (OSHA PSM, API standards, state-specific regulations) demand consistent compliance documentation across all operations.
Turnarounds and shutdowns concentrate risk. The most dangerous work happens in the shortest timeframes with the most unfamiliar crews.

Common oil & gas hazards

Oil and gas operations face high-consequence hazards where a single failure can escalate fast.

Process Leaks & Releases

Hydrocarbon releases, gas leaks, and process upsets that can escalate to fires or explosions. Early detection and rapid response are critical to preventing catastrophic events.

Confined Space Incidents

Vessel entry, tank cleaning, and maintenance in enclosed spaces with atmospheric hazards. Permit-required confined spaces demand rigorous procedural compliance.

H2S Exposure

Hydrogen sulfide is a constant threat in oil and gas operations. Colorless and deadly at low concentrations, H2S exposure events require immediate investigation and pattern analysis.

Turnaround Injuries

Planned shutdowns concentrate hundreds of contractors performing high-hazard work (scaffolding, hot work, confined space entry, heavy lifts) in compressed timeframes.

Permit-to-Work Violations

Hot work permits, confined space permits, and isolation certificates require strict procedural compliance. Violations often precede serious incidents.

Cross-Site Equipment Failures

Similar equipment across multiple sites can share failure modes. A valve failure at one refinery may indicate risk at every facility running the same equipment.

How Intero helps

Intero works from the first report to cross-site pattern analysis, and keeps a person on the sign-off.

Conversational Capture

Contract crews type safety reports in plain language and attach photos, without stopping work. Intero classifies each one and opens a Case File. No forms, no reports lost during a turnaround.

Process Safety Investigation

Intero loads the method a process safety event calls for, from bow-tie to Tripod Beta, and cross-references similar events in your history to find systemic causes. Every finding in the Causal Chain is cited to evidence.

Cross-Site Pattern Analysis

Intero correlates incidents, near-misses, and observations across the sites in your organization to surface shared failure modes. A corrosion finding pulls up earlier similar findings from your history.

Review & Sign-Off

Every RCA is a draft until a human investigator reviews and signs it. AI-generated content is marked DRAFT, edits are recorded, and segregation-of-duties keeps the author and approver separate. Intero advises; people decide.

A three-line report starts the investigation.

Illustrative scenario.

A contract welder spots corrosion on a pipe flange during a turnaround and types a short report from a phone. Intero asks the follow-up questions a seasoned investigator would, builds a root-cause analysis with every finding tied to evidence, and links the hazard to earlier similar findings in your history. The draft is ready for your investigator to review, edit, and sign.
