Use this page to organize field time into a usable record for oil and gas work: who worked, where they worked, which job or work order received the time, and which shift, trade, or rate category applies. Remote well-site crews, drivers, mechanics, operators, and supervisors often move between yards, lodging, equipment, and the site, so the record has to identify the work behind each total.
A good weekly record also supports the payroll and finance handoff. For employees covered by the FLSA minimum wage or overtime provisions, employer records must include hours worked each workday and total hours worked each workweek, along with wage details. The federal law requires accurate records for nonexempt workers, but it does not require a specific clock, spreadsheet, or app format.
Oil and gas time entries work best when each entry carries the operational labels finance and field managers use later. Include the worker, date, start and stop time or daily total, site, project, work order, WBS or cost center, internal order if used, craft or trade, shift, location, and pay or bill rate category. Those fields turn raw hours into labor cost, budget, invoice, and crew planning data.
A service unit operator's entry, for example, can tie a long field shift to a specific work order, trade, and shift code, while a mechanic's entry can connect repair time to an equipment-related task. For time-and-materials work, the LEM record should align labor with equipment and material details so client billing and invoice approval trace back to the same job record.
Remote well-site work adds an operational layer that office time tracking never sees. NIOSH says oil and gas workers often drive long distances from homes, lodging sites, and equipment yards to remote well sites, and long trips combined with long shifts can create fatigue. NIOSH also identifies crashes as the leading cause of death for oil and gas extraction workers, so shift length and travel-related time deserve separate visibility.
Separate categories help supervisors spot patterns before the weekly report turns into a flat total. Track productive site labor apart from non-productive hours, training, isolation, travel, or other categories your contract, payroll rules, or internal policy uses. The cited oil and gas EPC case used dimensions such as region, grade, shift, location, and trade, plus override rates for training, isolation, and cost-plus subcontracts.
A simple weekly total is enough when you need a quick recap for one person, one job, and no downstream approval. It stops being enough when field time feeds LEM support, client invoices, mobilization checks, budgets, payroll review, or finance systems. Re-keying the same hours into several places creates mismatches between the timesheet, the work order, and the invoice support.
A managed workflow gives every crew member a repeatable way to record time by project and task, submit it for review, and keep approved records available for reporting. Everhour fits that stage when oil and gas teams need configurable reports by project, member, billable time, labor cost, budget metric, or integration custom field, with exports for payroll, billing, and project controls.

A useful entry identifies the worker, date, daily hours, workweek, site, project, work order, craft or trade, shift, location, and rate category. Field teams that use LEM records also need labor to line up with equipment and material details. For FLSA-covered nonexempt employees, records must include hours worked each day and total hours worked each workweek.
Yes. A LEM supports client billing and invoice approval for time-and-materials work, so the labor side should match the timesheet source. It should connect hours to the same work order, WBS, cost center, labor rate, and job context used for equipment and material records. Mismatches slow approval and weaken the audit trail behind the invoice.
Yes. The FLSA requires covered employers to keep accurate records for nonexempt workers, but it does not mandate a specific timekeeping form or system. The method can be a time clock, digital app, or other complete record, as long as it captures required wage-and-hour details accurately and remains available for the required retention periods.
Separate it when your payroll rules, client contract, internal policy, or fatigue review uses travel as its own category. Remote well-site teams often drive long distances between lodging, yards, and sites, and burying that time inside production labor hides a fatigue-relevant signal. The record still needs clear daily and weekly hours for covered nonexempt workers.
No. Under the FLSA federal baseline, covered nonexempt employees must receive overtime pay for hours worked over 40 in a fixed 168-hour workweek at not less than 1.5 times the regular rate. Hours cannot be averaged across two or more workweeks for FLSA overtime purposes, though state law, policy, or contract terms can add rules.
Everhour Reporting can group and filter logged time by task, project, client, member, comments, billable time, labor costs, invoice status, budget metrics, and integration custom fields, so work orders can be represented in the tracking setup. Reports support 45+ columns, date ranges, CSV, Excel/XLSX, and PDF exports, plus scheduled email delivery for project controls review.
Everhour Timesheets lets crew members submit weekly project hours or working hours, then managers can approve, reject, or partially approve submitted time. Submitted and approved entries stay locked for regular members, which keeps payroll and billing review tied to the approved record.
Track field labor by task, project, member, and rate context, then use Everhour Reporting to group, export, or schedule labor views for cleaner budgets, invoices, and payroll review.
