Offshore broadband: PGS and Shearwater in it
Schlumberger undercuts Baker Hughes by 16.5% for this job
E&P contracting brief for the day
Feb 12:
1) GSPC hard-wires multi-site mobilisation discipline into pipeline tie-ins and mechanical R&M
8GSPC has bundled new-well flowline tie-ins with CP commissioning and nitrogen purging into the same package as brownfield station modifications, forcing bidders to prove integrated execution muscle.
2) Vedanta’s Jaya field gas sale heads to dgh-empanelled e-bidding rails
8Vedanta is pushing Jaya field gas through an e-bidding process run by a dgh-empanelled agency, tightening the governance frame before the market even sees the technical fine print.
8What matters next is not the invitation itself, but how the rfp quietly defines delivery-interface control, measurement discipline, and bidder downside.
8The structure can widen participation on process comfort while simultaneously filtering bidders on operational sophistication, depending on the hidden constraints.
3) Cairn’s geophysical data acquisition QC EOI puts liquidity screens and a no-subcontracting wall at the vendor-pool gate
8Cairn is building a QC- control layer that spans seismic, CSEM, aerogravity/magnetics, geodetics and offshore compliance roles, hinting at a broader acquisition pipeline than the EOI admits outright.
8But the entry filter is less about resumes and more about balance-sheet behaviour, with liquidity floors and “recent audited” rules shaping who can even raise a hand.
8The document’s hardest line is the delivery model itself, and the market’s response will determine whether this becomes a template or a one-off tightening.
4) Poly Drill undercuts rivals by over 22% to win ONGC Cambay–Assam MBCU contract
8ONGC’s cementing logistics contract has been decided with a decisive price gap. Poly Drill Engineers Pvt Ltd has outpriced its nearest rival by more than 22%.
8The real question now is whether that margin holds under four years of uptime-linked penalties.
5) Two bidders face tide-linked risk matrix in ONGC’s Sagar Gaurav spud can repair tender
8ONGC has turned channel depth and tug logistics into monetised risk variables.
8The Rs 40,000-per-hour penalty reshapes dry dock competitiveness between a shipyard and an EPC player. The real contest may unfold not in steel renewal — but in bathymetry.
6) Two directional drilling players qualify as ONGC holds firm on OEM residual life and tool integrity
8ONGC refused to dilute its 3.5-year SDMM residual life mandate even after multiple bidder representations.
8At the same time, it quietly widened the manpower funnel through internship-based equivalence.
8Two bidders cleared the bar — but only under full-spectrum technical discipline.

New SAF plant: Why technical certification is the new 'L1'
Feb 12:
8Most refinery tenders are won on price.
8But this one will be won on compliance certification.
8If your technology isn't already "bankable," you're likely out before the priced bid even opens.

Downstream contracting briefs
Feb 12:
1) Biomass plant: Bid Relief Granted, Execution Relief Denied
8For the winning contractor, the result is going to be a "Pressure Cooker" contract where the extra time gained for bidding must be used to front-load procurement for an indivisible, specification-heavy project.
2) BPCL Kochi PPU Offsite: Governance Reset and GST Tightening Set New Compliance Bar
8BPCL has overhauled the Kochi PPU Offsite tender via Commercial Amendment No. 1, deleting the SCC arbitration clause and enforcing a new GCC that shifts the dispute resolution playbook. The amendment also introduces a rigorous GST blocked-credit invoicing rule, forcing contractors to take full responsibility for tax classification or risk delayed payments. While EIL has eased technical pressure by relaxing crane-capacity mandates, the "Class-I Local Supplier Only" rule remains a hard filter that narrows the competition to elite domestic players.
3) BPREP Composite MEI deadline pushed ahead as market struggles with heavy-lift mandates
8Find out why this is so.
