HR software built for MENA oil & gas operations

From Aramco field-service contractors in Ghawar to ADNOC NOC subcontractors in Al Ruwais, QatarEnergy LNG operations in Ras Laffan to Basra oil-field crews — MENA oil & gas operations run rotation shifts (14 days on-site / 14 days off, or 28/28 for offshore + remote), labor-accommodation workforces, and multi-nationality crews. AttendUX handles the specific operational patterns: ZKTeco at camps, offline mobile at field, per-diem allowances tied to on-site cycles, safety-incident tracking.

Why MENA oil & gas contractors pick AttendUX

Built around how Oil & Gas businesses actually operate — not bolted on as an afterthought.

14/14 + 28/28 rotation shifts

Pre-built rotation-shift templates for standard oil & gas patterns: 14 days on-site / 14 days off, 28/28 for offshore + ultra-remote, 21/7 for short-cycle. System schedules + tracks who's on-site when, applies per-diem allowances only during on-site weeks.

Labor-accommodation ZKTeco

ZKTeco face terminals at camp entry points track in-and-out of labor accommodation. Separate from site-attendance tracking. Reconciled on single timeline for audit. Standard pattern for 100-500 worker camps.

Offline mobile for field sites

Oil fields + offshore rigs + remote pipelines often have weak-to-no signal. AttendUX mobile app queues face + GPS check-ins locally when offline + syncs when returning to signal (end-of-rotation to camp). Critical for Basra + Ghawar + Ruwais operations.

Per-diem allowances + remote-site pay

Per-diem allowances tied to on-site rotation days (not off-site weeks). Remote-site allowances per employee classification. Configurable per contract type (direct employee vs subcontractor vs third-party staffing).

Safety-incident tracking

Record workplace incidents, near-misses, PPE distribution. Documentation critical for ADNOC/Aramco/QatarEnergy HSE compliance. Audit-ready logs support safety audits + contract renewals.

Dual IQD/USD for Iraqi IOCs

Iraqi oil contractors (ExxonMobil, BP, Lukoil, CNPC subcontractors in Basra fields) commonly pay USD + IQD. AttendUX supports dual-currency payroll with configurable exchange rates per period, documented per employee contract.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does AttendUX handle 14/14 rotation shifts?

Rotation shift templates are pre-built. Define cycle length (14 days on-site + 14 days leave = 28-day cycle). System auto-schedules forward indefinitely. Per-diem allowances auto-apply during on-site weeks. Off-site weeks don't count against vacation balance (they're paid leave by contract type). Attendance tracked only on-site via ZKTeco camp + field mobile.

How does labor-accommodation attendance differ from field attendance?

Two separate but reconciled timelines. Labor accommodation (camp) has ZKTeco face terminals at gate — tracks in/out of the housing facility. Field work (oilfield, rig, pipeline) uses mobile face + GPS — tracks work-time per shift. Both feed into single attendance record for payroll + HSE audit. Reconciliation catches gaps (checked into camp but no field check-in = flag).

Does AttendUX work for Iraqi oilfield contractors with IQD/USD dual payroll?

Yes. Dual-currency payroll with configurable exchange rates per period. Common pattern: USD base salary for senior/skilled roles + IQD per-diem for operational expenses. Both documented in contract. Taxed per Iraqi income-tax brackets on IQD-equivalent total. Suitable for ExxonMobil/BP/Lukoil/CNPC subcontractors in Basra + Rumaila + West Qurna fields.

Can AttendUX produce HSE-compliance audit reports for ADNOC/Aramco/QatarEnergy?

Yes. Safety-incident logs (date, employee, location, type), near-miss reports, PPE distribution records, safety-training completion all tracked with immutable audit trail. Export reports in formats aligned with HSE auditor expectations. Supports contract renewal reviews + certification maintenance. Not a substitute for dedicated HSE software, but adequate for most contractor-level needs.

How does mobile work in oilfield zones with no signal?

Offline-first design. Mobile app queues face-recognition + GPS check-ins locally when no signal (common in field work, pipeline routes, offshore). When worker returns to signal area (camp, admin block, rest break), check-ins sync to server. Server-side validation (geofence match, mock-location re-check, face verification) runs at sync time. Workers never lose attendance records.
