1) Whipstock side-tracks go factory-mode with single-trip KPIs and call-out LDs in ONGC offshore drilling 8ONGC’s three-year whipstock window-milling rate contract pushes single-trip success and strict retrieval penalties. 8A new call-out value formula hard-links delay to liquidated damages while customs-anchored paperwork gates lost-in-hole recovery. 8The real story is how many bidders can stock nine mill sets and stand up multi-rig concurrency without blowing cash cycles.
2) Plant-grade pigging loop with 72-hour PGTR and PMS/VMS compliance lands on a 90-day clock in ONGC ATI Goa 8ONGC wants a fully piggable training loop built to plant standards, not a classroom toy. 8The spec hard-wires PMS/VMS, intrusive indicators and a 72-hour PGTR into a 90-day delivery window. 8The missing commercial scaffolding keeps risk pricing and bidder appetite as the big unknowns.
3) Event-ready oil spill demo with ISO-rated kits and crew splits from a training baseline — ONGC ATI Goa 8ONGC’s training arm wants a real spill-response kit scaled to a pond, not a token classroom set. 8The brief pairs an India Energy Week demo crew with a longer-tail training kit under a 90-day clock. 8The commercial blanks and a wording glitch on demo duration will shape who bids and how they price.
4) Plant-grade LPG grid with metering, leak detection and 72-hour PGTR on a 90-day clock — ONGC ATI Goa 8ONGC wants a campus-wide LPG network delivered like a refinery utility, not a kitchen retrofit. 8The spec locks in PMS/VMS, underground protection, detectors and a 72-hour PGTR across 13 legs. 8The missing commercial guardrails will decide who can fund the pace and still hold margins.
5) GST uplift to 18% and mobilisation reset to 45 days reshape economics and schedule in ONGC/GPPL liquid mud plant 8ONGC has aligned the LMP tender’s fiscal framework to the latest customs and GST notifications, lifting the concessional rate to 18%. 8A modest mobilisation relief and precise fire-safety clarifications recalibrate execution without loosening technical rigor. 8The new ability to borrow experience could redraw the bidder map, but only for those who can still meet the LMP’s high-spec envelope.
6) Participation and techno-commercial opening dates extended for ONGC Cambay Anklav Tee hot tapping valve replacement 8ONGC has pushed back the submission and opening milestones for the Anklav Tee live-line valve-replacement package. 8The move could widen participation in a niche, high-risk scope that few can credibly deliver. 8But a year-mismatch across documents now raises a compliance question that only a clarificatory note can settle.
1) ONGC MIND tightens delivery control but widens eligibility in DOT SI empanelment replies 8Subcontracted “experience” is in, subcontracted “resources” are out. 8Integrity pacts can be e-signed while performance security clocks back to 15 days. 8The calendar shifted, but the risk architecture stayed put.
2) Bid extended and shutdown rules stiffened in OIL Hasimara exposure repair 8The Hasimara crossing just got more exacting on execution while the clock on bidding ticks a little longer. 8A 48-hour shutdown window with twin teams and hot-standby kit will test contractor readiness. 8The cash and compliance knobs look modest but surgical — the pricing story sits behind those standby hours.
3) Corrigendum opens PQC gate and extends bid window, while TPI tails go no-cost for overruns in ONGC Hazira 8Hazira’s inspection tender quietly widens the gate for newcomers even as it stiffens the service tail. 8The bid clock moves out, but the one-year post-completion oversight stays unpriced. The real contest is who can carry unpaid schedule drift without cracking margin.
4) Bid window extended and STQC-Indian pivot as HA core fixed at 160 channels for Sun 8SunPetro quietly hardens the Bhaskar-I CCTV spine to a 160-channel HA design while nudging bidders toward STQC-approved Indian makes. 8The date push gives breathing space, but Fortinet legacy constraints will still test interoperability. 8The real margin hinge is throughput, storage, and RF reliability over 30 km in monsoon season.
5) Corrigendum lifts List-33 concession to 18% and hardwires integrity pact, as bid clocks to 10 October in ONGC’s ETP multi-asset hire 8The tax dial on petroleum-ops imports just turned, and with it the margin maths on mobile ETPs. 8Governance tightens through integrity pact and online securities, while schedule discipline stays unforgiving. 8The winners will be those who read the List-33 fine print and still move plants inside four days.
6) Corrigendum locks pre-bid for 8 October and tightens QCBS guardrails as UBD study clocks to 21 October in OIL UBD consultancy 8Oil India has fixed the room and the hour for the UBD debate, and raised the technical bar to clear it. 8The QCBS matrix favours real basin expertise over price theatre. 8The margin hinges on how fast teams can turn Assam data into a defensible UBD business case.
8ONGC has lifted the concessional IGST from 12% to 18% mid-cycle and embedded it through a formal corrigendum. 8The revised MCC keeps a firm 180-day mobilisation and clarifies duration/notice without easing schedule risk. 8Bidders must now price cash-cycle impacts, MPD readiness, and digital obligations without expecting relief on time. Click on Details for moreDetails
8The duty/GST rewrite pushes cash-flow and compliance burdens back onto bidders while preserving BCD/SWS relief. 8Ahmedabad’s pump spec and tool counts have been re-cut to realistic 1000 HP envelopes, widening participation. 8HSE is tightened yet nuanced, with a targeted TEED exemption that respects super-single design. Click on Details for moreDetails
1) KDMIPE moves to lock in high-resolution in-situ geochron capability with LA-MC-ICP-MS 8ONGC’s KDMIPE has issued a non-binding EOI for a full-stack LA-MC-ICP-MS with stringent resolution, detector and laser mapping specs. 8The package goes beyond hardware, mandating standards/spikes, gas systems, and 10-year software upgrades with demonstrations on zircon and allied minerals. 8Vendors with documented Indian service depth and geology workflows will find the scope exacting but bankable.
2) Drill pipe spinner buy tightens kit-completeness and inspection discipline 8ONGC’s central buy locks minimum torque/rpm, air-demand limits and complete accessory bundles for 21 spinners across five work-centres. 8The contract leans on QAP-led final inspection with ONGC-borne TPI and a moderate 3% PBG. 8Bidders face strict PQCs and documentation hygiene, favouring manufacturers and authorized channels over traders.
3) O&M scorecard goes hard: ONGC Rajahmundry/Narsapur DG set contract ties full pay to 98% KPIs and prefers e-BGs 8A small-ticket utility tender just raised big-ticket compliance stakes. 8ONGC has yoked monthly payouts to a 98% scorecard while keeping penalties on a separate track. 8The cashflow message to bidders is unambiguous—and the operational bar even more so.
4) Pre-bid hardens mobilisation and consumables rules as ONGC offshore crane O&M tender shifts LD and readiness levers to asset level 8A 45-day mobilisation bar just became 60 days, but the finish line is stricter and auditable. 8Consumables for every crane move squarely into contractor scope with an explicit penalty cap, while LD stays anchored to the asset, not platform. 8Vendors now win on yard logistics, documentation hygiene, and work-order discipline — not auction agility.
5) Pre-bid clarifies geometry and cost adjustments as ONGC Aliabet TZ 3D seismic tender keeps weather and heli risks on bidders 8ONGC nailed down the TWT/depth envelope and put numbers to depth and charge-size adjustments. 8Bidders were refused relief on bad-weather standby and helicopter crew-change, keeping HSE and met risk squarely external. 8The calendar moved by a week, but the risk architecture did not.
8A two-packet bid for three-year offshore overhaul support has narrowed the field to two qualified firms. 8The disqualifications hint at strict interpretations of safety, mobilisation, and tooling readiness. 8With RA off the table, execution discipline—rather than auction agility—will set the pricing and award tone.

1) OIL open hole logging units tender hard-wires OEM depth, third-party verification and ESG to police quality over a 10-year AMC 8OIL has issued an ICB for two complete open hole logging units with full tool suites and a decade-long AMC. 8The bid asks for 10-year OEM pedigree, independent document verification and an ESG questionnaire for high-value orders. 8Explosives and radioactive supplies are decoupled with OIL-led permitting, which will shape mobilisation maths.
2) Import substitution EOI fixes API-grade bars and lab comparators across drilling, completion and chemical supplies 8OIL’s latest INDEG phase invites domestic vendors to clear high technical bars before any bulk buys. API/ISO validations, 8TPIA and reference-based lab acceptance move the gate from brand to data. 8The upside is entry via development orders; the downside is upfront sample and documentation load.
3) Schedule ambiguity and DDP risk shift define SunPetro’s Bhaskar-1 6-inch HP gas pipeline tender 8SunPetro wants a ~95 barg, 6-inch, ~19 km send-out line built fast with two spreads and tight inspection gates. 8The ITB hands the owner wide award, termination, and de-hire discretion while pushing logistics and permitting burdens onto the EPC. 8But conflicting completion periods and mixed signals on e-submission vs hard-copy could reshape bidder risk pricing if left unresolved.
4) Offshore 200 kVA gas genset buy sharpens HSE and uptime demands 8SunPetro’s Alphabob platform seeks a prime-duty 200 kVA gas unit with CPCB IV+ emissions, strict 75 dB(A) acoustics and a 72-hour endurance run. 8The scope hard-wires offshore protections, CO? canopy flooding and DGMS-aligned deliverables while splitting marine-lift responsibilities. 8Tight PQCs and inclusive pricing point to a concentrated OEM field where execution discipline will decide.
5) SunPetro west-coast AHTS charter hardens downtime economics, softens PBG lock-up 8DP-II AHTS with ≥80-ton bollard pull and heavy fluids capacity are in play, but with a stricter suspension and off-hire regime. 8Annual-value PBG and 30-day hire payments ease the cash side even as owners shoulder tighter uptime risk. 8The fine print on early termination and bid-bond amount is where the competitive edge will be decided.
8BPCL’s first amendment to the Andhra polypropylene licensor tender quietly retools the compliance plumbing. Verification moves to the highest npv bidder with bpcl now explicitly in the loop, and a narrowed holiday-list declaration broadens the field. A sharp foreign emd correction removes an outlier cash lock-up. Click on Details for more

8EIL has rejected all attempts to loosen the UPS package, from cable swaps to rear-clearance demands. Delivery stays locked to the purchase order date, not drawings, and FO termination is firmly in bidder scope. A tight option clause and RFQ-over-GeM hierarchy complete a buyer-leaning construct.

1) EMD waived, trader licence mandatory: IOCL Gujarat Refinery narrows field for exchange power buy 8IOCL Gujarat Refinery wants a Category-I CERC trader with exchange membership and a one-year, 5 MWh-average trading track record. EMD is off the table, but compliance and HSE obligations are uncompromising. The bid opens in two parts with price discovery gated behind technical clearance.
2) Paradip sulphuric acid and cetane improver tanks consultancy packs a 30-day clock 8IOCL has opened a two-bid consultancy tender for designing a sulphuric acid tank and a cetane improver tank at Paradip. The NIT sets a 30-day completion bar with no EMD but a 5% ePBG. Tight refinery-grade PQCs and OISD compliance will shape who shows up—and who stays competitive.
3) GAIL PMC tender hardwires design discipline and SOR-only pricing for gas delivery project 8GAIL’s new PMC package bakes governance into the scope, from HAZOP enforcement to time-boxed drawing approvals. A strict SOR-only price path and “no ITC” stance will reshape bid math and filter the field. Inspection travel being deemed-included forces leaner expediting and real execution chops.
4) Design-heavy HFHSD build at Naob Rambilli tightens quality gates with IIT vetting 8IOCL has rolled out a limited-panel, design-first tender for its HFHSD facility at Naob Rambilli. The contract hard-wires OISD/PNGRB/API-650 compliance and makes IIT vetting a payment trigger. Tighter jurisdictional and access controls could reshape bidder strategies and price discipline.
5) BPCL seeks legal due diligence and advisory partner via limited tender 8BPCL has launched a limited tender to onboard a legal due diligence and advisory consultant. The bid runs on the C1 India portal with a techno-commercial split and policy overlays. Key securities and liability anchors are not disclosed, keeping pricing strategy in flux.
6) Survey tender for 2nd SPM corridor leans on hazard atlas and RA discipline in HPCL Visakh refinery 8HPCL has pushed the onshore pipeline survey for its second SPM to GeM with a reverse-auction spine. The package hard-wires multi-hazard planning but leaves data/KPI specifics to inference. A PQC–GeM mismatch on MSME/Startup relaxations could reshape the bidder pool. Click on Details for moreDetails
8A rare Class-I-only licensor hunt puts yield, content, and compliance on a collision course. BPCL wants ≥70% SAF and >99% availability while preserving refinery interfaces and emissions caps. The pre-bid calendar conflict could decide who actually competes. Click on Details for more

8HPCL has called a pre-tender meet for a 540-km multiproduct pipeline laying corridor split into three parts with a 12+3 month delivery clock. Draft BQC raises the bar on executed length, turnover and working capital while mandating third-party verification of credentials. A cap of two parts per bidder could redraw teaming strategies and price tension. Click on Details for more
