H2S Safety Inspection Software
The H2S safety checklist app for oilfield crews working sour wells. Capture atmospheric readings, detector bump tests, SCBA inspections, and wind direction in timestamped, photo-backed records that help document H2S monitoring and inspections.
- Atmospheric monitoring: ppm readings at entry, work zone, and muster point
- Detector verification: bump tests, calibration dates, and serial-level audit trail
- Wind & muster check: photo of wind sock, muster point checked against the site plan

Paper inspection workflows break under field pressure.
The risk is rarely the checklist itself. It is missing context, missing ownership, and missing evidence when a regulator, operator, or customer asks for the record.
Failure point 1: Paper loses the field context
The field record needs photos, timestamps, operator attribution, and location context in one place. Paper splits that evidence across binders, phones, and memory.
Failure point 2: Failed items do not get owned
A checked box can show that a problem existed, but it rarely assigns the corrective action, due date, and follow-up trail needed to prove the issue was closed.
Failure point 3: Audit requests turn into searches
When someone asks for OSHA 29 CFR 1910.1000 (exposure limits) documentation, crews should export the record, not hunt through truck folders, scanned PDFs, or spreadsheets.
An H2S inspection your crew can actually run on a sour site
Keep detector checks, training records, and field observations together so supervisors can review what was checked.
- Atmospheric monitoring: ppm readings at entry, work zone, and muster point
- Detector verification: bump tests, calibration dates, and serial-level audit trail
- Wind & muster check: photo of wind sock, muster point checked against the site plan
- Training currency block: crew can be blocked from signing if H2S certification is expired

H2S Features Built for Sour Operations
Detector tracking, training currency, and atmospheric logs — one tool for the inspections that matter most.
H2S detector calibration tracking
Each fixed and portable detector logged with serial, calibration date, and bump-test result. Expired devices auto-flag.
Wind direction & muster point logging
Capture wind direction at the time of inspection with a photo of the muster point and downwind layout.
Offline at sour-gas wellsites
Run atmospheric monitoring and SCBA inspections in zero-signal locations. Records sync on return.
Crew training verification
Confirm every worker on site holds current H2S certification before the inspection can be submitted.
Auto-issue on failed readings
An out-of-range H2S reading or expired SCBA creates a tracked corrective action with an assigned owner.
H2S inspection PDFs
Export recorded atmospheric readings, detector logs, and crew sign-offs for review.

Compliance gaps become expensive when the record is weak.
OSHA 29 CFR 1910.1000 sets occupational exposure limits. API RP 49 is the Recommended Practice for Drilling and Well Servicing Operations Involving Hydrogen Sulfide. API lists RP 49 as withdrawn in its 2025 catalogue. Confirm the requirements that apply to your operation; BasinCheck helps organize monitoring and inspection records.
- H2S atmospheric monitoring records with location & timestamp
- Detector calibration and bump-test logs by serial
- Worker training currency and on-site briefing sign-offs
Why BasinCheck vs. Generic Inspection Apps
Generic Apps
- No detector calibration or bump-test fields
- Wind direction tracked on a clipboard, not the record
- Training currency lives in a separate spreadsheet
- Failed items rely on a verbal hand-off
BasinCheck for H2S
- Detector serials, calibration, and bump-test built-in
- Wind direction & muster point captured with photo
- Training currency check before submit
- Monitoring and inspection records in one place
