Account for every person in hazardous areas.
For operators, EPCs and turnaround contractors across offshore platforms, refineries, terminals and petrochemical plants. We design mustering and persons-on-board accountability, lone-worker safety, hot-work permit geofencing and turnaround workforce visibility — engineered for hazardous, regulated environments. Hardware-agnostic across ATEX/IECEx-certified UWB, BLE, active RFID and GPS.
What we keep seeing.
Mustering is too slow
In an emergency, paper or badge-swipe headcounts can take 30–45 minutes across a large site — and still leave doubt about who is actually accounted for.
Lone & remote workers are exposed
Technicians in confined spaces, tank farms and remote wellheads can go man-down with no reliable way to raise an alarm or be located.
Turnarounds are chaos to track
A shutdown brings thousands of contractors on site for weeks. Knowing who is qualified, where they are and whether hot-work permits are respected is a clipboard job.
The use cases that consistently pay back.
Mustering & POB accountability
Real-time persons-on-board counts and verified headcount at muster stations in under two minutes for emergency response and drills.
Lone-worker & man-down
Duress alarms, no-motion detection and precise location for workers in confined spaces, tank farms and remote sites.
Hot-work & exclusion geofencing
Permit-linked zones that alert when unauthorised personnel enter hot-work, simultaneous-operations (SIMOPS) or energised areas.
Turnaround & shutdown visibility
Live contractor register, competency/induction status, work-front progress and automatic gate reconciliation during TAR peaks.
Asset, tool & valve tracking
Locate test equipment, high-value tools, scaffolding and critical spares across plants, terminals and laydown yards.
Confined-space & gas-detection link
Entry/exit monitoring tied to permits, integrated with wearable gas detectors for a single safety picture.

On a major refinery turnaround we had roughly 1,800 contractors on site. Manual mustering was taking over 40 minutes — unacceptable if it were ever a real evacuation. With ATEX-rated tags and zone readers, verified headcount dropped to under 90 seconds and persons-on-board was accurate to the individual. It worked because TRACIO designed it around our permit-to-work process, not bolted on after.HSE Manager · downstream refinery turnaround · EMEAAnonymised at the client's request.

Where the payback shows up.
Offshore platform mustering
Real-time persons-on-board and sub-two-minute verified mustering for a fixed-platform emergency-response programme.
Refinery turnaround control
Live contractor visibility, competency gating and hot-work geofencing across a multi-week shutdown with thousands of workers.
Lone-worker tank farm
Man-down and duress alerting with precise location for operators across remote tank farms and pipeline pump stations.
