Every oilfield worker knows the moment: you are heading out to a location, cell service drops off, there is a road closure and your app stops being useful. You are left with a well name, UWI or API from dispatch, and a road ahead that looks uncertain from the driver's seat. Oilfield Route was built to fix exactly that.
Today we are officially launching Oilfield Route, a navigation app built specifically for remote oil and gas operations. This is not a general-purpose map product with a thin industry skin on top. It is designed for the actual conditions, vehicles, roads, and workflows crews deal with across producing regions in Canada and the United States.
Why a dedicated navigation app matters
General navigation apps do not understand wellsite workflows. They do not know how to route to a lease location without a standard street address, or what happens operationally when a crew loses signal halfway through a trip or the original planned route changes because of operational conditions. The result is wasted time, unnecessary detours, and avoidable uncertainty when crews should be focused on the work itself.
That gap is not minor. It affects fuel use, trip time, coordination, and in some situations safety. Oilfield Route was built to close that gap with routing and search behavior that starts in the oilfield when needed, instead of worrying about cell coverage.
What is included in the initial release
The first production release brings together the capabilities crews need most when they are moving between leases, pads, and remote service locations.
- True offline navigation so routes calculate on-device once the required map package has been downloaded.
- Wellsite routing using identifiers and land-description workflows that reflect how destinations are actually referenced in the field.
- Truck-ready routes designed for pickups and heavier oilfield traffic, not only standard consumer-driving vehicles.
- Updated well details so routing and planning decisions can reflect what is happening on the ground.
Navigate the oilfield without cell signal and without compromising the route when conditions stop looking like a normal road trip.
Coverage across Canada and the United States
Oilfield Route currently supports Alberta, British Columbia, and Saskatchewan in Canada, along with Alaska, California, Colorado, Kansas, Montana, New Mexico, North Dakota, Ohio, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, Texas, Utah, and Wyoming in the United States. Regional map packages can be downloaded in advance, which keeps storage practical while still making the app useful for crews who work across multiple operating areas.
Coverage is not standing still. We are actively expanding the footprint of the app, and Louisiana, Nebraska, and Mississippi are among the regions planned for the near future as we continue building out support where field demand is strongest.
If your team is looking for a specific region, you can contact the Oilfield Route team through the Contact Us section and ask about current availability or upcoming expansion plans.
Built for safety and efficiency
Efficient routing is only half the problem. Crews also need routing that respects field conditions, vehicle limits, and the operational cost of getting sent down the wrong road. Truck-optimized routing helps keep heavier vehicles on more appropriate roads, while wellsite-aware navigation reduces the time spent circling for the correct access point.
The offline-first design matters just as much. Navigation failure tends to happen when operational risk is already rising, usually after coverage has become unreliable. Oilfield Route is intended to remain useful precisely in that part of the trip rather than only at the beginning.
How to get started
Oilfield Route is available now on iOS and Android. The recommended setup is simple: choose your operating region(s), download the required map package over Wi-Fi or cellular data, search for wellsites or destinations you need, and head into the field with the data and maps in your pocket.
