Bid closing pushed to 16 February 2026 for Baghewala emulsified crude sale

Feb 03: 8Oil India limited has extended the bid closing.
8The move lands alongside a revised bid evaluation framework that adds sharper discretion levers and heavier compliance mechanics for a product-sale tender.
8What bidders do with premium strategy, documentation risk, and minimum offtake commitments is now the real story.

E&P contracting brief for the day

Feb 03: 1) ONGC tests indigenous 40/70 type-III low strength proppant supply chain ahead of frac demand
8ONGC’s WSS Ahmedabad is probing whether India’s proppant makers can hold type-III 40/70 performance limits under a corporate-spec test regime.
 
2) 2D broadband offshore seismic award throws up a 26.0% L2 gap
8The pricing spread that signals a very different risk view between L-1 and the rest of the field.
 
3) Gas genset hiring for SRP wells: Bid analysis
8It was a narrow L-1-L2 gap
 
4) ONGC awards MODU-1989 LQ HVAC ducting retrofit on Sagar rigs as L1 undercuts L2 by 83.2%
8ONGC’s MODU-1989 compliance retrofit for LQ HVAC ducting on four offshore rigs has landed with a pricing split that’s hard to ignore.
 
5) ONGC ILM turnkey rig services re-wired
8The corrigendum does not change the ILM rig scope, but it changes who can realistically win it.
 
6) ONGC offshore cementing services tender extends unpriced bid opening
8ONGC has moved the unpriced techno-commercial bid opening.
8The bigger signal is what did not change: the contractor still carries planning, lab validation, and rig-side interface accountability across ERD, HPHT and deepwater cementing exposure.
8Whether this is a participation-relief move or an internal process-control reset is the part bidders will read between the lines.

Downstream contracting briefs: Technical bids

Feb 03: 1) Two bidders clear technical gate in IOCL’s panipat refinery heat tracer O&M tender after six participate
8IOCL’s panipat refinery heat tracer package has collapsed into a two-bidder technical race, with four bidders knocked out before commercials even matter.
 
2) GMPL tightens the field to three in PTA plant operations assistance bid
8It is a commissioning-to-stabilization control contract with penalties and redeployment authority baked into the core. Nine bidders came in, but only three survived technical evaluation

Downstream contracting briefs

Feb 03: 1) Refinery expansion tender hard-cuts assured quantity cover while forcing L1 rate-matching across three shutdown piping packages
8The technical challenge is not just piping tonnage, but brownfield interfaces and round-the-clock delivery where the risk philosophy is written into the procurement mechanics.
 
2) EIL tightens compressor operating envelope and bid-time interface disclosures in latest amendment for PLL PP project
8The package quietly resets the machine’s operating pressures and formalises the condensate handling philosophy. The bigger signal is not the numbers, but the new demand that bidders quantify installation and insulation assumptions even where execution is pushed to the site contractor.
 
3) HPCL LMBU cooling tower package amendment strips six-month chemical dosing O&M tail
8The tender has quietly redrawn the boundary between EPC delivery and early-life operations.
 
4) Petronet LNG’s Dahej PDH–PP DG set tender extends bid deadline, keeping reverse auction and stacked PBG risk intact
8Petronet LNG and eil have pushed the DG set package bid due date out by 14 days, but the tender’s risk architecture stays fully switched on.
 
5) BPCL shifts Bina refinery energy optimization into execution mode with a 3-year EPCM-PMC bid that hardens scope and security rules
8The scope reads like an execution-risk transfer onto the PMC.
 
6) BPCL buys crane-and-equipment uptime at Kochi refinery, but a 2-day bid extension hints at schedule friction
8The real story is how BPCL’s governance-heavy structure reshapes bidder behaviour long before prices are even compared.
 
7) NRL tightens Assam-office gate for PIH PMC package
8It is shaping into a site-supervision contract with hard deployment expectations and limited relaxation levers.

BPCL’s Mumbai refinery GTU revamp consultancy lands with EIL

Feb 02: 8BPCL has awarded the Mumbai refinery GTU revamp consultancy to EIL, but the bigger story is the project’s pivot from a new GTU case to a revamp economics rewrite. The scope ties licensor inputs to LP, capex/IRR cases, and DFR updates that feed environmental clearance workstreams. With only one qualified bidder disclosed, the award looks more like vendor concentration than price discovery.

Thirty-four extensions later, the holds the line on risk in this green hydrogen transmission bid

Feb 02: 8After thirty-four deadline extensions, the company has shifted the clock again on one of India’s most ambitious green hydrogen transmission projects.
8The scope remains untouched, the securities remain locked, and the schedule remains unforgiving.
8What this says about bidder appetite, tariff realism, and future hydrogen corridors is where the real story begins.

NRL's contracting brief

Feb 02: 1) Two bidders enter EIL’s RG condenser race for NRL’s polypropylene unit project
8The bid frame hard-bakes PPP-MII local class eligibility and buyer-approved TPIA oversight, signalling a governance-first approach to exchanger quality risk. What matters next is not the headcount of bidders, but how the hidden datasheet constraints and inspection hold points reshape who can actually clear technical compliance.
 
2) BOQ split flips L1 across scope baskets in NRL’s NREP EPCM-1 MS block instrumentation award
8The package did not just end in a routine L1 story; the pricing ranks invert between boq1 and boq2. One basket is separated by a normal competitive gap, while the other shows a spread so wide it changes the risk profile of the award. The procurement calendar, stretched through repeated addenda, hints that bidders were pricing uncertainty as much as steel and cable.
 
3) NRL’s NREP instrumentation package sees split L1s across BOQ1 and BOQ2
8The tender closed after a long chain of deadline extensions that kept the baseline intact but pushed bidder validity economics into late 2025. The award table shows a clean competition on BOQ1, but an extreme bifurcation on BOQ2 that hints bidders were not pricing the same obligation.

Downstream contracting briefs: Technical bids

Feb 02: 1) GAIL’s NCR pipelines GRA and HARZOP bid tightens the technical gate as only 3 of 9 clear evaluation
8This is a massive 2,000 km NCR pipeline grid. A hard software-and-methodology spine sits beneath the bid, while bidder attempts to soften liability and dispute clauses were bluntly deflected.
 
2) GAIL narrows VSPL LPG pipeline HARZOP–QRA field to five qualifiers
8The tender is not being decided on glossy methodology decks, but on hard proof: executed orders, compulsory checklists, and licensed modelling software.
 
3) GAIL’s Jamnagar–loni pipeline expansion PMC tender draws just two technical bids
8GAIL has structured its JLPL capacity expansion PMC tender with a pipeline-scale experience gate that naturally compresses the field. The technical opening record shows only two admitted bidders, both legacy PSU consultancies. The real story now is how the tender’s schedule-risk posture and “no consortium” architecture will shape downstream competition.
 
4) GAIL’s Uran Usar pipeline package draws eight technical submissions after date extension, with working-capital clause sanitised
8The next filter will be whether the bidder pool holds after HDD capability and compliance scrutiny.
 
5) EIL’s BPREP CS pressure vessel tender draws 26 technical bidders as evaluation begins
8The real separation will come from how bidders handle inspection gates, documentation discipline, and delivery assurance under an 08-month site-receipt-defined clock.

Downstream contracting briefs

Feb 02: 1) BPCL Mumbai refinery’s engineering consultancy ARC gets deadline extension as manhour caps and a 25% option clause tighten bidder risk
8A late-cycle extension window and a 25% quantity/duration option clause shift bid-day strategy and volume risk at the same time. The real contest will be who can price the “as-site data + fast turnaround” burden without bleeding margins.
 
2) GAIL extends Moga paddy straw CBG plant PMC tender, pares back approvals ownership language
8The more revealing move sits inside the SOW: permissions and statutory-approval wording is tightened, and a paragraph that pinned approvals as the pmc’s “responsibility” is deleted. The package now reads like a deliberate risk-map cleanup ahead of close, with cashflow and scope-elasticity levers still intact.
 
3)  BPCL’s NHGU (and SRU) STG package tightens performance gates, but bidders expose scope-labelling risk
8With only three serious bidders in the room, BPCL’s next written clarifications will decide whether this stays a tight OEM contest or turns into a deviation-heavy bid fight.

BPCL’s Jawahar Dweep crude tank plan hardwires coastal clearance and quantified risk into the consultancy scope

Andhra Refinery Update

Feb 02: 1) PFCCU block licensor tender: It is now on for more than 100 days past its first due date
8What the extension chain really says about bidder depth, tender clarity, and pricing tension is where the real story sits.
 
2) LDPE licensor tender tightens risk with long-tail CPBG and hard liability caps
8The package is written less like a technology sale and more like a long-duration performance contract. A fresh time extension now becomes the tell on whether the market is pushing back on that risk stack.

Coal gasification: Ash specs narrowed

Feb 02: 8By forcing “20% ash” references to be read as “18.4% ash” across the tender, the owner narrows variability but raises the bar for licensor-backed guarantees.
8The next clash point will be whether coal quality control is contractually owned by the client or priced as a contractor risk.

E&P contracting brief: Part I

Feb 02: 1) ONGC’s Onshore Energy Package Insurance Policy 2026–27: An Update
8It is handing bidders a near-underwriting-grade exposure ledger across wells, workovers, and connected pipelines
 
2) GSPC’s Ahmedabad RFPSC and Ankleshwar Drill Site Restoration Tender Tests Lump-Sum Risk With Pipeline Removal and Landowner Handover Obligations
8GSPC’s abandonment-closure package is written like a surface handover project, not a routine civil job, with landowner acceptance and lease termination paperwork sitting on the critical path.
8Part-a adds buried-asset uncertainty through a kilometre-class pipeline removal scope that must be reinstated back to cultivable condition under landowner scrutiny.
 
3) Cairn Sets a Global Vendor Gate for Rajasthan Well Tangibles as It Bundles Hardware With Execution Services
8Cairn’s Rajasthan well campaign is quietly shifting procurement from “supply” to “systems accountability”, with completion and artificial lift tangibles pulled together with associated field services.
8The EOI’s hard liquidity and audit-scrutiny filters look built to reshape the vendor pool before any pricing fight even begins.
8What this does to interface risk, category packaging, and who can realistically qualify will only become clear once the RFI responses surface.
 
4) Twin L1 Sets Up Random Selection Risk in Oil India’s PS-10 Barauni and RS-17 Khagaria UT Thickness Survey Award
8Oil India’s thickness-survey award lands on a rare twin L1, compressing price discovery to a single number while the rest of the market prices in heavy execution risk.
8The tender locks data quality to OISD formats and ASNT level-II manpower, but refuses to pin down exact measurement counts, shifting effort uncertainty to the vendor.
8The next pricing step-up to L2 hints at margin stress and a higher chance of post-award friction on what “actual points” really means on site.
 
5) Two Qualifiers, One Disqualification as ONGC Cambay Tightens Compliance Around Gas Genset Hire for SRP Wells
8With only three bidders at the threshold that disables auto-extension, ongc Cambay asset’s genset hire moved straight into a high-stakes technical sort.
8One bidder fell out, while two stayed in—yet the scope shows gas conditioning, metering, and uptime governance quietly deciding who survives evaluation.
8The risk transfer sits on the contractor even when fuel is “free”.

E&P contracting brief: Part II

Feb 02: 1) Reply to Pre-Bid Queries Tightens Scope Edges for 10k PTS Hire
8ONGC has answered bidder pushback on what drives cost in a three-year high-pressure flowback testing campaign.
8The clarifications look small but shift erosion, logistics and compliance failure risk back onto contractors.
8The unresolved tension is whether the claimed bid extension is reflected in the controlling tender text.
 
2) Tender Closing Extended for ONGC’s MSV Samudra Sevak and DSV Samudra Prabha O&M Package
8ONGC has moved the closing date on its DP-diving vessel O&M tender, buying bidders time to assemble heavy evidence stacks that this matrix-driven package demands.
8The real story is how an “all-in day rate” (including dry-dock) collides with a BG structure linked to day rate—turning pricing into a liquidity and reliability bet, not just a rate card.
 
3) 1000 hp Mobile Rig Hire Bid Timeline as Key Mobility and Pump-Drive Clauses Soften
8This rig hire tender is shifting at the clause level, not just on dates.
8Equipment acceptance and mobility obligations have been recalibrated in ways that reshape bidder eligibility and execution risk.
8The most consequential impact sits in what the buyer removed, not what it added.
 
4) OIL Rajasthan Field Cementing and BHP Services Tender Pushed Ahead
8Oil India Limited’s cementing and bhp package is being run with unusually hard technical gates, from approved additive ecosystems to final-binding lab validation.
8Behind the extension lies a deeper contest over compliance discipline, equipment readiness, and bidder appetite under restrictive eligibility filters.

E&P contracting brief for the day

Feb 03: 1) ONGC tests indigenous 40/70 type-III low strength proppant supply chain ahead of frac demand
8ONGC’s WSS Ahmedabad is probing whether India’s proppant makers can hold type-III 40/70 performance limits under a corporate-spec test regime.
 
2) 2D broadband offshore seismic award throws up a 26.0% L2 gap
8The pricing spread that signals a very different risk view between L-1 and the rest of the field.
 
3) Gas genset hiring for SRP wells: Bid analysis
8It was a narrow L-1-L2 gap
 
4) ONGC awards MODU-1989 LQ HVAC ducting retrofit on Sagar rigs as L1 undercuts L2 by 83.2%
8ONGC’s MODU-1989 compliance retrofit for LQ HVAC ducting on four offshore rigs has landed with a pricing split that’s hard to ignore.
 
5) ONGC ILM turnkey rig services re-wired
8The corrigendum does not change the ILM rig scope, but it changes who can realistically win it.
 
6) ONGC offshore cementing services tender extends unpriced bid opening
8ONGC has moved the unpriced techno-commercial bid opening.
8The bigger signal is what did not change: the contractor still carries planning, lab validation, and rig-side interface accountability across ERD, HPHT and deepwater cementing exposure.
8Whether this is a participation-relief move or an internal process-control reset is the part bidders will read between the lines.

Downstream contracting briefs: Technical bids

Feb 03: 1) Two bidders clear technical gate in IOCL’s panipat refinery heat tracer O&M tender after six participate
8IOCL’s panipat refinery heat tracer package has collapsed into a two-bidder technical race, with four bidders knocked out before commercials even matter.
 
2) GMPL tightens the field to three in PTA plant operations assistance bid
8It is a commissioning-to-stabilization control contract with penalties and redeployment authority baked into the core. Nine bidders came in, but only three survived technical evaluation

Click on Details for more Details

Downstream contracting briefs

Feb 03: 1) Refinery expansion tender hard-cuts assured quantity cover while forcing L1 rate-matching across three shutdown piping packages
8The technical challenge is not just piping tonnage, but brownfield interfaces and round-the-clock delivery where the risk philosophy is written into the procurement mechanics.
 
2) EIL tightens compressor operating envelope and bid-time interface disclosures in latest amendment for PLL PP project
8The package quietly resets the machine’s operating pressures and formalises the condensate handling philosophy. The bigger signal is not the numbers, but the new demand that bidders quantify installation and insulation assumptions even where execution is pushed to the site contractor.
 
3) HPCL LMBU cooling tower package amendment strips six-month chemical dosing O&M tail
8The tender has quietly redrawn the boundary between EPC delivery and early-life operations.
 
4) Petronet LNG’s Dahej PDH–PP DG set tender extends bid deadline, keeping reverse auction and stacked PBG risk intact
8Petronet LNG and eil have pushed the DG set package bid due date out by 14 days, but the tender’s risk architecture stays fully switched on.
 
5) BPCL shifts Bina refinery energy optimization into execution mode with a 3-year EPCM-PMC bid that hardens scope and security rules
8The scope reads like an execution-risk transfer onto the PMC.
 
6) BPCL buys crane-and-equipment uptime at Kochi refinery, but a 2-day bid extension hints at schedule friction
8The real story is how BPCL’s governance-heavy structure reshapes bidder behaviour long before prices are even compared.
 
7) NRL tightens Assam-office gate for PIH PMC package
8It is shaping into a site-supervision contract with hard deployment expectations and limited relaxation levers.

BPCL’s Mumbai refinery GTU revamp consultancy lands with EIL

Feb 02: 8BPCL has awarded the Mumbai refinery GTU revamp consultancy to EIL, but the bigger story is the project’s pivot from a new GTU case to a revamp economics rewrite. The scope ties licensor inputs to LP, capex/IRR cases, and DFR updates that feed environmental clearance workstreams. With only one qualified bidder disclosed, the award looks more like vendor concentration than price discovery.

Thirty-four extensions later, the holds the line on risk in this green hydrogen transmission bid

Feb 02: 8After thirty-four deadline extensions, the company has shifted the clock again on one of India’s most ambitious green hydrogen transmission projects.
8The scope remains untouched, the securities remain locked, and the schedule remains unforgiving.
8What this says about bidder appetite, tariff realism, and future hydrogen corridors is where the real story begins.

NRL's contracting brief

Feb 02: 1) Two bidders enter EIL’s RG condenser race for NRL’s polypropylene unit project
8The bid frame hard-bakes PPP-MII local class eligibility and buyer-approved TPIA oversight, signalling a governance-first approach to exchanger quality risk. What matters next is not the headcount of bidders, but how the hidden datasheet constraints and inspection hold points reshape who can actually clear technical compliance.
 
2) BOQ split flips L1 across scope baskets in NRL’s NREP EPCM-1 MS block instrumentation award
8The package did not just end in a routine L1 story; the pricing ranks invert between boq1 and boq2. One basket is separated by a normal competitive gap, while the other shows a spread so wide it changes the risk profile of the award. The procurement calendar, stretched through repeated addenda, hints that bidders were pricing uncertainty as much as steel and cable.
 
3) NRL’s NREP instrumentation package sees split L1s across BOQ1 and BOQ2
8The tender closed after a long chain of deadline extensions that kept the baseline intact but pushed bidder validity economics into late 2025. The award table shows a clean competition on BOQ1, but an extreme bifurcation on BOQ2 that hints bidders were not pricing the same obligation.

Downstream contracting briefs: Technical bids

Feb 02: 1) GAIL’s NCR pipelines GRA and HARZOP bid tightens the technical gate as only 3 of 9 clear evaluation
8This is a massive 2,000 km NCR pipeline grid. A hard software-and-methodology spine sits beneath the bid, while bidder attempts to soften liability and dispute clauses were bluntly deflected.
 
2) GAIL narrows VSPL LPG pipeline HARZOP–QRA field to five qualifiers
8The tender is not being decided on glossy methodology decks, but on hard proof: executed orders, compulsory checklists, and licensed modelling software.
 
3) GAIL’s Jamnagar–loni pipeline expansion PMC tender draws just two technical bids
8GAIL has structured its JLPL capacity expansion PMC tender with a pipeline-scale experience gate that naturally compresses the field. The technical opening record shows only two admitted bidders, both legacy PSU consultancies. The real story now is how the tender’s schedule-risk posture and “no consortium” architecture will shape downstream competition.
 
4) GAIL’s Uran Usar pipeline package draws eight technical submissions after date extension, with working-capital clause sanitised
8The next filter will be whether the bidder pool holds after HDD capability and compliance scrutiny.
 
5) EIL’s BPREP CS pressure vessel tender draws 26 technical bidders as evaluation begins
8The real separation will come from how bidders handle inspection gates, documentation discipline, and delivery assurance under an 08-month site-receipt-defined clock.

Downstream contracting briefs

Feb 02: 1) BPCL Mumbai refinery’s engineering consultancy ARC gets deadline extension as manhour caps and a 25% option clause tighten bidder risk
8A late-cycle extension window and a 25% quantity/duration option clause shift bid-day strategy and volume risk at the same time. The real contest will be who can price the “as-site data + fast turnaround” burden without bleeding margins.
 
2) GAIL extends Moga paddy straw CBG plant PMC tender, pares back approvals ownership language
8The more revealing move sits inside the SOW: permissions and statutory-approval wording is tightened, and a paragraph that pinned approvals as the pmc’s “responsibility” is deleted. The package now reads like a deliberate risk-map cleanup ahead of close, with cashflow and scope-elasticity levers still intact.
 
3)  BPCL’s NHGU (and SRU) STG package tightens performance gates, but bidders expose scope-labelling risk
8With only three serious bidders in the room, BPCL’s next written clarifications will decide whether this stays a tight OEM contest or turns into a deviation-heavy bid fight.

BPCL’s Jawahar Dweep crude tank plan hardwires coastal clearance and quantified risk into the consultancy scope

Feb 02: 8These crude tanks are being taken as a demurrage-reduction lever, but the consultancy scope shows the real battle will be fought in coastal mapping, marine baselines and risk contouring.

Andhra Refinery Update

Feb 02: 1) PFCCU block licensor tender: It is now on for more than 100 days past its first due date
8What the extension chain really says about bidder depth, tender clarity, and pricing tension is where the real story sits.
 
2) LDPE licensor tender tightens risk with long-tail CPBG and hard liability caps
8The package is written less like a technology sale and more like a long-duration performance contract. A fresh time extension now becomes the tell on whether the market is pushing back on that risk stack.

Coal gasification: Ash specs narrowed

Feb 02: 8By forcing “20% ash” references to be read as “18.4% ash” across the tender, the owner narrows variability but raises the bar for licensor-backed guarantees.
8The next clash point will be whether coal quality control is contractually owned by the client or priced as a contractor risk.

ONGC’s 140-well Cambay drilling campaign: Know all about it

Feb 02: 8This is ONGC’s major onshore oil and gas development plan across 17 mining lease blocks in Gujarat’s Cambay asset
Click on Details for more Details

E&P contracting brief: Part I

Feb 02: 1) ONGC’s Onshore Energy Package Insurance Policy 2026–27: An Update
8It is handing bidders a near-underwriting-grade exposure ledger across wells, workovers, and connected pipelines
 
2) GSPC’s Ahmedabad RFPSC and Ankleshwar Drill Site Restoration Tender Tests Lump-Sum Risk With Pipeline Removal and Landowner Handover Obligations
8GSPC’s abandonment-closure package is written like a surface handover project, not a routine civil job, with landowner acceptance and lease termination paperwork sitting on the critical path.
8Part-a adds buried-asset uncertainty through a kilometre-class pipeline removal scope that must be reinstated back to cultivable condition under landowner scrutiny.
 
3) Cairn Sets a Global Vendor Gate for Rajasthan Well Tangibles as It Bundles Hardware With Execution Services
8Cairn’s Rajasthan well campaign is quietly shifting procurement from “supply” to “systems accountability”, with completion and artificial lift tangibles pulled together with associated field services.
8The EOI’s hard liquidity and audit-scrutiny filters look built to reshape the vendor pool before any pricing fight even begins.
8What this does to interface risk, category packaging, and who can realistically qualify will only become clear once the RFI responses surface.
 
4) Twin L1 Sets Up Random Selection Risk in Oil India’s PS-10 Barauni and RS-17 Khagaria UT Thickness Survey Award
8Oil India’s thickness-survey award lands on a rare twin L1, compressing price discovery to a single number while the rest of the market prices in heavy execution risk.
8The tender locks data quality to OISD formats and ASNT level-II manpower, but refuses to pin down exact measurement counts, shifting effort uncertainty to the vendor.
8The next pricing step-up to L2 hints at margin stress and a higher chance of post-award friction on what “actual points” really means on site.
 
5) Two Qualifiers, One Disqualification as ONGC Cambay Tightens Compliance Around Gas Genset Hire for SRP Wells
8With only three bidders at the threshold that disables auto-extension, ongc Cambay asset’s genset hire moved straight into a high-stakes technical sort.
8One bidder fell out, while two stayed in—yet the scope shows gas conditioning, metering, and uptime governance quietly deciding who survives evaluation.
8The risk transfer sits on the contractor even when fuel is “free”.

E&P contracting brief: Part II

Feb 02: 1) Reply to Pre-Bid Queries Tightens Scope Edges for 10k PTS Hire
8ONGC has answered bidder pushback on what drives cost in a three-year high-pressure flowback testing campaign.
8The clarifications look small but shift erosion, logistics and compliance failure risk back onto contractors.
8The unresolved tension is whether the claimed bid extension is reflected in the controlling tender text.
 
2) Tender Closing Extended for ONGC’s MSV Samudra Sevak and DSV Samudra Prabha O&M Package
8ONGC has moved the closing date on its DP-diving vessel O&M tender, buying bidders time to assemble heavy evidence stacks that this matrix-driven package demands.
8The real story is how an “all-in day rate” (including dry-dock) collides with a BG structure linked to day rate—turning pricing into a liquidity and reliability bet, not just a rate card.
 
3) 1000 hp Mobile Rig Hire Bid Timeline as Key Mobility and Pump-Drive Clauses Soften
8This rig hire tender is shifting at the clause level, not just on dates.
8Equipment acceptance and mobility obligations have been recalibrated in ways that reshape bidder eligibility and execution risk.
8The most consequential impact sits in what the buyer removed, not what it added.
 
4) OIL Rajasthan Field Cementing and BHP Services Tender Pushed Ahead
8Oil India Limited’s cementing and bhp package is being run with unusually hard technical gates, from approved additive ecosystems to final-binding lab validation.
8Behind the extension lies a deeper contest over compliance discipline, equipment readiness, and bidder appetite under restrictive eligibility filters.
