1) Foam system overhaul on ARN & SKO tanks tightens schedule and quality screws in ONGC Hazira
8ONGC Hazira’s foam-system retrofit hard-codes a 15-day mobilization inside a 180-day completion clock and links cashflow to commissioning.
8Dual LDs and chargeable retests push first-time-right execution under OISD-116.
8But an SCC-GCC timeline mismatch could be the sleeper risk bidders must price in.
 
 2) Cycle-tight gas detector maintenance hard-codes dual LDs and cash-flow discipline in ONGC Cauvery Asset
8ONGC Cauvery Asset’s three-year calibration plan forces six-monthly cycles with installation-wise accountability.
8Dual LDs for mobilisation and completion raise the cost of delay while an option clause gives room to scale.
8No advances and a long ePBG push financing onto vendors, reshaping who can compete.
 
 3) World Fire wins Tripura drilling fire-tender hire, L2 trails by 16.2% in OIL Frontier Basin Project fire tender
8OIL has closed a three-year hire for a fully kitted multi-purpose fire tender to shadow its Tripura drilling campaign.
8
The spec loads in UHP mist, SCBA redundancy, and crew standards more common to downstream plants than remote pads.
8A two-horse race left L2 at a 16.2% premium, raising questions on crew logistics and inventory risk that the market will parse behind the wall.

8The award locks in a relocatable API 674 pumping fleet to unblock injectivity at eight wells without fixed lines.
8A tighter telemetry regime and DO-linked penalties could reshape contractor practices on dosing and uptime.
8The price curve shows a sharp mid-pack step-up and an extreme outlier, raising questions on risk loading that the market will parse behind the scenes.

1) Butene-1 licensor bar tightened with cross-border proof and 20-week BEDP clock
8BPCL has opened licensor selection for a 50 KTPA Butene-1 unit with strict global reference criteria. The IFB compresses BEDP to 20 weeks from kick-off and fixes a 12-month bid validity under a CPP-only process. Catalyst swaps are allowed, but only with proven alternate references and one-year operating proof.
 
2) BPCl’s Ramayapatnam Phenol unit licensor race sets 24-week BEDP clock and export-proven BQC filter
8BPCL has drawn a hard line on licensor credibility and schedule for its Ramayapatnam phenol unit. A 24-week BEDP and strict non-home-country ≥100 ktpa references narrow the field to a handful. The payoff lies in who can pair guarantees with lowest lifecycle NPV.
 
3)
L1 at 21% below estimate splits the field in BPCL AP refinery ODC/OWC survey
8A three-month cap and no reverse auction created a clean, SOR-anchored price war. One bidder dived 21% below estimate while three clustered near Rs 10 lakh. The structure signals speed over ceremony for early-works logistics.

1) BPCL’s Bina petchem expansion seeks six-riser, 155 m demountable flare under strict eil standards
8The flare brief is big on maintainability and hazardous-area discipline, light on civil. A six-riser, shared-derrick architecture with high-load legs tightens integration risk. KOD pumps as FIM tilt capex, but the commissioning clock still bites.
 
2) IOCL Panipat PBR cooling water composite bid pushed through four extensions to mid-November
8The cooling water network package for IOCL’s PBR project has slipped from an 18 August close through successive addenda. Each push appears tied to tightening technical baselines and refinery-adjacent HSE governance. The final stretch into November could improve bid quality—but risks utility-path compression later.
 
3) MRPL pushes SAF certification bid close to 20 Oct with two micro-extensions
8MRPL has twice extended its ISCC-CORSIA consultancy bid, nudging the close from 13 October to 20 October. The securities, PQC, and milestone structure remain intact. The move looks designed to improve bid quality in a documentation-heavy, audit-critical scope.
 
4) GAIL’s 12.6 TPD CBG PMC tender pivots pre-bid online and sets high experience bars
8GAIL has moved the pre-bid to MS Teams and anchored clarifications in the ATC pack. The BEC demands prior PMC/EPCM experience on unusually high-throughput CBG plants. With no EMD but strict document authentication, only battle-tested advisors are likely to make the cut.
 
5) Eight bid extensions stretch BPCL Mahul–Rasayani HDD tender to 30 October, signaling rig-readiness and compliance friction

8BPCL’s HDD package for Mahul–Rasayani has slipped eight times from a mid-July target to 30 October. The scope and BQC remain unchanged, but rig documentation and verification demands raise the entry bar. The bid pool could deepen—or consolidate—depending on who lands compliant Category-1 assets in time.

Three make the technical cut for SAC facilitation at Hathua LPG hub
8BPCL’s Hathua LPG hub consultancy pushes a dense SAC checklist into a 90-day window with 100% payment on final approval. GeM shows EMD switched off even as the ATC frames an EMD regime, a tension bidders cannot ignore. With four bidders and three qualified, watch how balance-sheet stamina prices regulatory uncertainty.

1) Bid window extended to 30 October for 2000 kVA transformer package in ONGC Sivasagar Sub-station-4
8ONGC has pushed the bid deadline by 14 days without altering securities or evaluation mechanics.
8The technically stringent IS 1180/IS 2026 package remains intact, with heavy testing and QA obligations.
8The extra time could change who shows up, but not the quality bar they must clear.
 
2) Bid deadline moved to 22 October for crude-tanker hiring, scope and securities unchanged in ONGC Assam Asset
8ONGC has added seven days to the bid clock without touching PQC, securities or the technical regimen.
8A parallel tweak in the ITB now pegs List-33 concessional imports to 18% IGST, with a merit-rate caveat.
8The timetable relief may widen the vendor pool, but operational controls and pricing discipline still set the tone.
 
3) Oil India tender for 45-ton crane hire pushed to 24 Oct as MSE rules tightened
8OIL has extended its five-crane hire bid by ten days after revising local-content and MSE clauses.
8The corrigendum adds auditor-backed certification and formal price-preference sequencing under DPIIT rules.
8The pause signals an audit-driven cleanup of GeM-based service procurement ahead of contract finalisation.
 
4) SunPetro Bhaskar-I RTMCS tender pushed to 17 October after six technical bulletins
8Sun Petrochemicals has extended its Bhaskar-I real-time monitoring system tender to 17 October 2025 following a string of technical clarifications.
8The latest addenda tighten specifications on UPS, RTD, and flow meter integration, prompting vendors to re-work quotes.
8The extension highlights mounting interface complexity in SunPetro’s digital-field rollout.
 
5) ONGC extends LTSOBM service tender for Rajahmundry to 27 October amid qualification tightness
8ONGC’s Mumbai procurement division has pushed its Rajahmundry LTSOBM service tender to 27 October 2025 — the seventh shift since July.
8The move reflects ongoing vendor deliberations over stringent experience and bonding conditions rather than scope revision.
8This extension cements the trend of prolonged fluid-service tenders as operators grapple with limited qualified pools.

1) Heavy disqualifications but four firms clear ONGC’s KPI-first bar for Nandasan GGS O&M
8ONGC softened tenure but hardened everything else.
8Capacity, KPIs and emergency readiness stayed non-negotiable.
8The firms that stay in now have to price uncertainty on diesel, deductions and 100% availability.
 
2) ONGC pushes bid deadline to 30 October and clarifies MPD responsibility without easing schedule teeth in ONGC DP drillship charter
8The window just widened, but the guardrails didn’t move.
8MPD must stay fully automated, seven-day installation stands, and downtime rules still bite.
8The supervision-vs-responsibility line is now sharper — and so is the competition.
 
3) ONGC tightens HCI–NAS tender with clause-specific tech edits and a formula-driven option clause in hiWON Basin IT resources upgrade
8The fine print just moved — and only the highlighted text now rules.
8Option-clause math gives ONGC a clean path to scale the order without price shocks.
8Compliance will hinge on reading the right version at the right place.
 
4) Bid due extended to 07 November 2025 for Bhaskar-1 high-pressure gas pipeline
8SunPetro has pushed the bid due by two weeks without softening securities or liquidated damages.
8The scope still demands a turnkey, piggable, Class 600 pipeline with CP and intelligent pigging.
8The added time may change who can bid credibly, but not the risk profile bidders must accept.
 
5) ONGC extends delivery timeline and links PBG to warranty period in drill pipe spinner tender
8ONGC’s amendment grants suppliers an extra ten weeks to deliver drill pipe spinners while tightening security coverage for post-delivery performance.
8The PBG now runs through the entire 12-month warranty period, signalling stronger quality enforcement.
8The change balances vendor lead-time realities with ONGC’s demand for longer-term assurance.
 
6) Bid submission extended to 16 October 2025 for rig-less WSO services in Sun Petrochemicals Bhaskar Field
8SunPetro has granted a one-day extension to its rig-less polymer-based water shut-off tender for Bhaskar Field.
8The shift, though minor, reflects tight vendor coordination around specialised chemical design and execution requirements.
8All technical and commercial terms remain unchanged, signalling discipline amid bidder feedback.

1) Andhra University edges IIT Madras to win KG-PG subsidence study in ONGC Rajahmundry Asset
8ONGC has chosen Andhra University over IIT Madras for a five-year SAR/KGPS subsidence study in the KG-PG basin.
8The 6.5% price gap suggests closely matched technical approaches with different field and analytics cost loading.
8With ONGC providing GNSS hardware and the awardee carrying AMC and reporting cadence, execution discipline will decide the value curve.
 
2) AIMIL wins three-year drilling-rig condition monitoring at MBA Basin
8ONGC has picked AIMIL against a seven-bid field to run condition monitoring across two rigs.
8The top-three prices cluster within 10% while the long tail balloons past 100%, hinting at divergent instrument and mobilization assumptions.
8With non-escalation locked in and ISO-anchored analytics, execution discipline will determine uptime gains and vendor margins.
 
3) Galaxy Enterprise wins rig carrier piping, steering, paint and re-wiring package in ONGC WS, AMD Asset
8ONGC has picked Galaxy Enterprise to refurbish Rig ROM-50-IV’s pneumatics, steering, coatings and electricals under a two-month custom-bid package.
8The top-three bids sit within 4.2% of each other, signalling convergent execution assumptions and limited risk premia.
8With e-BG preference and a detail-heavy BoM, delivery discipline and parts staging will decide whether the workshop window holds.
 
4) Two bidders step in as ONGC seeks seal replacement at Tatipaka, but conflicting time and warranty terms await clarification in Tatipaka refinery
8Two firms have put their names in, but the documents tell a more complicated story.
8The same tender cites two different schedules and two different warranty horizons.
8What ONGC clarifies next will decide both pricing and field execution.
 
5) Four-firm field lines up for Shertha cement bulk plant O&M as ONGC tightens tax-concession and security instruments in Ahmedabad Asset
8The bid clock moved, but the rules got sharper.
8ONGC’s update on petroleum-operations concessions and insistence on e-BG primacy reshape compliance calculus more than pricing theatre.
8How the four participants navigate these clauses will decide who stays competitive after scrutiny.
 
6) Single-vendor Siemens bid advances ONGC’s three-year PLC spares rate contract after twin date extensions in ONGC/CREG Mumbai
8The RC is architected for uptime, not price theatre.
8ONGC extended dates twice but left every other clause untouched.
8The contest now is the discount to the Siemens list and how quickly defects get rectified in the field.

1) SITC of 2×10T EOT cranes locked to 100% local-content, long PBG, and no-advance regime in ONGC Nhava
8ONGC has released a two-bid SITC tender for two 10T EOT cranes at Nhava with Class-I-only eligibility and 100% local content.
8A 32-month PBG and no-advance terms shift liquidity and performance risk squarely onto the vendor.
8The technical gatekeeping via QAD/QAP and EIC acceptance could reshape who bids and how they price.
 
2) Short-tenure HOC hire tightens uptime and cost policing in ONGC Cambay
8ONGC’s 5-month, call-out HOC tender compresses mobilization to 15 days and hard-wires uptime with 1.2× LDs.
8Diesel is indexed to IOCL-Cambay rates across movement and pump-operation modes, curbing quote padding.
8With “new purchase” bids deleted, only ready or swiftly transferable/leased units are in play.
 
3) Emergency sectional wreck removal locked to claims-linked payout ONGC ATI Goa, SSTF “Samudra Shiksha”
8ONGC has called an emergency EOI to cut and clear the stranded SSTF barge at Betul within 30 days.
8The job runs on a “no cure no payment” basis with the second tranche tied to insurance or auction outcomes.
8A strict five-year, GT-based experience filter will likely narrow the bidder field to proven marine salvage houses.
 
4) Non-splittable 3LPE pipeline package tightens governance and mobilisation in Oil India, Dhakuwal–Makum
8Oil India has put the Dhakuwal–Makum reach of its crude and gas pipeline out as a single, non-splittable package under a two-bid e-tender.
8A firm EMD, a 10% performance security, and Class-3 DSC rules hard-wire governance before price discovery.
8With mobilisation locked to 30 days and bid validity at 120 days, only Assam-ready EPCs with banking hygiene will be truly competitive.
 
5) Recon Engineering wins valve servicing package amid 5.3× bid spread in ONGC Rajahmundry
8A non-splittable, API 598-anchored scope and “no pay for un-serviced valves” set a hard risk line before price discovery.
8The award goes to Recon Engineering with a deep undercut while L2 trails at +80.8% and the tail stretches to +425.3%.
8The spread suggests aggressive risk absorption by L1 and a recalibration challenge for the rest.
 
6) KSB undercuts OEM to win PS6 pump AMC in Oil India PS6 Bongaigaon
8KSB has edged Sulzer to land Oil India’s three-year AMC for PS6 mainline pumps at Bongaigaon.
8The bid gap of 26.1% hints at divergent risk loading across VFD/PLC stewardship, response SLAs, and penalty exposure.
8A recent PQC pivot on drive-partner credentials and owner-retained spares will shape execution dynamics.

1) New Field wins ejector package amid wide spread in BPCL polypropylene project, Kochi refinery
8BPCL’s polypropylene project at Kochi has closed a limited-enquiry ejector package with a striking three-way price dispersion. EIL kept the guardrails tight — zero-deviation, integrity pact, PPP-MII, and a six-month FOT-site delivery. The winning price sets a low anchor against a high-end outlier, and the implications go beyond this line item.
 
2) Four-way L1 tie at IOCL Panipat sulphur pelletizer O&M under GeM floor-price regime in Panipat P-25 SRU
8IOCL’s sulphur pelletizer O&M on GeM closed with four identical L1 quotes and a penalty-heavy scope. The SOR’s fixed/variable split and wage pass-through left little pricing headroom, forcing convergence. The award hinges on GeM’s random tie-breaker and how vendors plan to manage trip-risk inside a 1,100 TPD unit.

1) IOCL Gujarat Refinery tightens CBM discipline with penalty-backed, data-handover ARC under LUPECH in Gujarat Refinery
8A two-year ARC for vibration monitoring at LUPECH folds in ISO-anchored dashboards, strict mobilization, and refinery-grade safety. The contractor must leave behind licensed software and full datasets while absorbing penalties for delays and even faulty recommendations. MII and PQC filters will shape a narrow bidder pool with refinery-class experience.
 
2) BPCL Kandla LPG import pipeline surveys tighten schedule with 1.5% free re-routing buffer and no-EMD GeM play
8BPCL has put its Kandla jetty-to-terminal and terminal-to-pipeline surveys on a fast, 90-day leash with dense technical outputs. The GeM construct strips out EMD/PBG and leans on staged payments and S-curve governance. The fine print on re-routing and EIC controls could decide who really carries the time risk.
 
3) Deep retrofit brief demands API/OISD-grade tank audits and CAD baselines for IOCL Mathura refinery
8Mathura wants more than drawings; it wants code-valid tanks with actionable fixes. The brief hard-codes API-650/2000, OISD-116/118, and IS 1893 into deliverables, plus per-tank safety and dyke audits. Reverse auction and staged approvals will decide who can turn field measurements into executable designs.
 
4) Throughput-first revamp sets 100-trucks/shift target at Mazgaon lube plant for HPCL
8HPCL has opened a two-packet consultancy tender to re-platform its Mazgaon lube plant around a new consolidated gantry and pump house. The brief hard-codes a 100-trucks-per-shift design point, future-proofed for 16 base-oil grades, with PLC/SCADA integration to TFMS/SAP. A 24-month schedule, 27-month ePBG and penalties for design errors sharpen contractor risk.
 
5) Tight NIIP-gated EPCM with RA and strict wage-escalation rules for IOCL Barauni refinery Ganga water intake facility
8IOCL has issued a 33-month EPCM mandate for the Barauni refinery’s Ganga water intake with a hard NIIP gate. Reverse auction, class-1 MII, and long ePBG will compress margins even as a prescriptive wage-escalation formula curbs claim overhangs. The feasibility schedule is tight and the construction window is unforgiving—what does that do to bidder strategy and delivery risk?
 
6) Eight-district consent push puts schedule risk on vendor, milestone cashflow on hold in BPCL IDPL Sankari TOP
8BPCL has carved the TNPCB consent job into four gates across eight districts and a nodal office, with the largest payout tied to the final consent. Item-wise LD and a 10% security deposit sit behind the timelines. The extension window exists, but the rates do not move.
 
7) Milestone-only land acquisition mandate set on a two-month clock
8BPCL wants the IDPL land in Tamil Nadu acquired on a compressed schedule with cash released only on statutory milestones. A dual termination architecture and GCC-level LDs tighten the screws on delivery. But precedence and certification mechanics will decide whether bidders price in risk—or stay out.

1) Third push to 30 October tightens vendor prep but delays price discovery in BPCL BPREP compressor
8BPCL’s BPREP compressor tender has now moved through three successive extensions to 30 October. Nothing else changes on zero-deviation, EMD and evaluation, but bidders get a longer runway to lock PTR and SFMS. Whether the extra time broadens competition or just shifts risk will show up at price opening.
 
2) Two-step deadline push aims to widen niche OEM field for ammonia-water expander in IOCL Paradip Refinery
8IOCL has moved the EoI submission out by eleven days for its ammonia-water expander at Paradip. The base design remains two-stage with re-heat, but bidders are invited to propose optimised alternatives. The shift hints at a tight vendor universe and a desire for deeper technical dossiers.
 
3) Two-step date extension pushes Pre-heater bid in MRPL Hydrogen II Unit
8MRPL has nudged the GeM deadline for its Hydrogen II Unit air pre-heater package — twice. Nothing else in the risk, security or qualification stack has moved. The extra 10 days could change who shows up and at what price.
 
4) BPCL’s bina terminal O&M bid gets a one-week extension, with selective clause softeners on RCA/AMC logistics in BPCL BDT
8BPCL has pushed the timeline while freezing its toughest operating expectations at BDT. A handful of bidder-led tweaks on failure analysis, AMC sequencing and offsite logistics are slated for corrigendum. The loss and demurrage guardrails, however, stay put.
 
5) GAIL Visakhapatnam PMC for 6.6 kV DG set bid gets 12-day extension
8GAIL’s PMC tender for a 6.6 kV DG-set at Visakhapatnam has been pushed out by nearly two weeks. The move keeps QCBS and BEC intact but gives bidders more time to assemble capacity-linked credentials and staffing proofs. We break down what changed, who gains, and where to watch the fine print.
 
6) Annexure-1 narrows scope and GeM price rules harden evaluation for PRFCC consultancy in BPCL Mumbai Refinery
8BPCL has published the pre-bid minutes and a corrective annexure that locks down the stress-analysis lines for PRFCC pre-project jobs. Alongside, buyer-added ATCs on GeM tighten price discipline and precedence. The mix changes how bidders must quote, but it also hints at BPCL’s risk-transfer posture.

Sole technical bid for GPR recirculation compressor package arrives under tight PTR and PPP-MII gates in IOCL Paradip PP Line-2
8IOCL has opened the technical bid for the GPR recirculation compressor at Paradip with only one OEM in the fray. PTR and Class-I PPP-MII filters, paired with a hard NDA gate, appear to have narrowed the field. The delivery-is-essence clause now shifts pressure onto build schedules and component lead times.

8IOCL’s five-year DMDS EOI arrives with zero EMD and a tight technical envelope. But a corrigendum slashes the headline quantity by 90%, creating a glaring mismatch with the notice. Will the pre-bid settle scope or widen uncertainty into the formal tender?
Click on Details for more Details
8The licensor playbook is out for BPCL’s 265 KTPA Cumene line into phenol. Dates are tight, the EMD is unforgiving, and run-proven references are non-negotiable. The technical bar now hinges on energy, yield, and single-train availability. Three sections define the heart of the unit: alkylation, trans-alkylation, and deep fractionation. The unit must deliver ≥99.95 wt% product to feed phenol. Battery-limit definitions and OSBL utility interfaces keep scope clarity high.

8BPCL has invited bids to partially replace the third-bed catalyst in NHGU reactor 133-R-302A under inert conditions. The scope is licensor-supervised with dense/sock loading, live video, and strict drum traceability, but price evaluation is locked to GeM’s total. Two conflicting execution windows and differing security constructs could shape both participation and pricing.

Click on Details for more Details
1) OIL pushes the bid deadline to 28 October without loosening drilling KPIs in Oil India horizontal and J-bend drilling
8Oil India has extended the submission window to 28 October 2025.
8The SOW’s RSS/MWD/LWD and calibration-vintage demands remain intact.
8Expect fewer conditional bids and tighter engineering narratives at opening.
 
2) Bid end extended to 21 October 2025 for maintenance of pigging facilities, western offshore
8An offshore integrity tender just bought itself two more weeks.
8The contract’s technical bar hasn’t moved, but bidder runway has.
8Watch whether OEM/TPI confirmations translate into keener numbers.
 
3) Oil India extends chemical sand consolidation bid to 21 October, while stretching SOW timelines and governance in Oil India chemical sand consolidation, five wells
8The bid clock moved to 21 October 2025, but the rules around integrity and delivery just got tighter.
8Study and mobilisation windows have been lengthened, not loosened.
8Expect fewer conditional offers and a more capability-led contest.
 
4) Bid end extended to 21 October 2025 for coil tubing call-out across Ahmedabad, Mehsana and Cambay in ONGC
8The calendar moved, but the bars did not.
8ONGC kept the equipment, penalty and no-stand-by posture intact while buying time.
8Watch if the deeper bench shows up without concessions on readiness.
 
5) Bid end pushed to 30 October 2025 with revised BEC; high-spec rig bars intact in Oil India in Arunachal rig charter
8The date moved, the demands didn’t.
8Electrical top drive and three-pump redundancy remain non-negotiable even as BEC is rewritten.
8Watch if bidders sharpen compliance rather than seek fresh relaxations.

1) Wide post-RA spread locks in aggressive L1 for HCl 2025–26 in ONGC hydrochloric acid procurement
8The HCl award closes with a steep ladder above L1, hinting at divergent freight and risk loading.
8Destination-testing power and two-packet RA mechanics appear to have rewarded operational certainty over list pricing.
8The pricing signal will echo into the next chemical cycles as vendors recalibrate local content, storage and cash costs.

2) Technical capability divides the field in live-line tender for ONGC Cambay Anklav valve replacement
8The participation lineup—Conmat, Plant-Tech, Plant Technology Services (India), Tritorc, and individual bidder Abhishek Singh—reflects a split between engineering houses and tooling specialists.
8Each brings a different competence base, from hot-tapping execution to proprietary stoppling kits, shaping how clarifications will test “similar work” proofs.
8ONGC’s “no subcontracting” clause ensures only entities with in-house execution and OEM access can meaningfully stay in contention.

3) Pre-bid replies lock dual-manual QC and push refueller risks contractor-side in ONGC AFS Juhu O&M
8Bidders tried to shift quality governance to their own DGCA manuals and move capital responsibilities to ONGC.
8The buyer kept ONGC’s QC manual at the core and reaffirmed contractor-side refueller and shrinkage risks.
8AAI royalty, if it arrives, will be reimbursed—changing pricing calculus without loosening performance obligations.

4) Three-week bid push gives room for tax-aligned pricing on high-pressure KCl dosing in ONGC Assam Asset
8ONGC has moved the bid end from 01-10-2025 to 21-10-2025.
8The shift lands just after a customs/GST reference update that changes how bidders model concessional IGST and ITC.
8The scope stays exacting, so the added time will test whether better-prepared designs narrow execution risk without softening price tension.

5) Thirty-three-day delta, three extensions, unchanged terms — SunPetro Bhaskar-I gas genset
8From 26-09-2025 to 29-10-2025 via 06-10-2025 and 15-10-2025, the bid runway lengthened.
8Nothing else moved.
8That signals a push for quality bids rather than relaxed risk.

1) ABC Techno Labs bags SIA and public-hearing mandate for the AP refinery
8BPCL has placed the public-hearing and SIA package for its 9 MMTPA Ramayapatnam refinery with ABC Techno Labs at roughly Rs 0.54 crore. The contract couples fast-tracked hearing logistics with a two-month SIA and a payment gate linked to environmental clearance. The structure tightens delivery discipline but pushes liquidity and calendar risks onto the vendor.
 
2) Tight core-BOQ spreads but sharp outliers on ancillaries in BPCL Bina water block
8Bid prices lined up closely on the big-ticket lots, yet some ancillaries show eye-watering premiums. Commercial and technical amendments quietly shifted risk and discipline towards the vendor bench. The real story is how these levers may shape the final award structure at Bina.
 
3) Firetech beats rival by 92.4% to bag BCPL Lepetkata MEFG package
8An automatic MEFG brief with detection in scope and owner-incomer looks straightforward—until you read the fine print. EIL pushes quantity and layout engineering onto bidders while revising key datasheets mid-cycle. The outcome: a yawning L1–L2 gap and a clear signal on how future fire-protection buys may be priced.
 
4) Sulzer bags tower-internals L1 at BPCL Kochi as EIL hard-wires a 70% sitework pricing floor in polypropylene project
8A quiet award hides an assertive commercial shift. EIL has locked in a 70% sitework floor with cash retention against under-quoting. The move could reset pricing behaviour for revamp-grade internals at Kochi and beyond.
 
5) M11 Energy takes L1 in treated UCO rate contract in HPCL Visakh Refinery
8HPCL has moved quickly to lock in treated UCO supply for SAF-readiness at Visakh. The winning bid comes amid tight technical gates and a notable shift to conciliation-only disputes. The terms quietly rebalance risk on quality, force majeure, and quantity swings.

1) Twenty-seven vendors queue up for heavy-wall CS pressure vessels in BPREP
8BPCL’s Bina petrochem expansion drew 27 technical bids for 26–50 mm carbon-steel vessels under a zero-deviation, NDA-gated package. The RFQ waives EMD but hard-wires cash-intensive ABG milestones and a 12-month FOT-site clock. PPP-MII and DMI&SP are marked “not applicable,” reshaping the competitive field.
 
2) Four OEMs line up for DCU revamp ultrasonic metering as owner sticks to six-month delivery and zero-deviation terms
8EIL has opened technical bids for the DCU revamp ultrasonic meters with four bidders in play. The owner is enforcing a six-month FOT clock, group-wise ordering, and no relaxation on payment or liability caps. A flare-service insertion design with composition-independent performance is now the bar to clear.
 
3) Five bidders line up for EIL-engineered column trays in BPCL polypropylene, Kochi refinery
8A limited, zero-deviation tray package for BPCL’s Kochi PP unit drew five names across global and local shops. EMD is waived but policy screens and NDA gating tighten the field. A six-month FOT-site clock now tests who can deliver without tripping price-reduction.
 
4) Why did only Technip clear this study?
8And why was that so?

1) Three-step bid due date push to 21 Oct on vertical sump pumps in BPREP
8BPCL’s vertical sump pump package moved through three quick extensions, landing on a 21 October submission. The RFQ stays strict on API-610(12th)+EIL overlays even as EMD remains nil. A portal-wording mismatch and spec-heavy deliverables likely drove timing, not policy change.
 
2) EIL extends MRPL offsite pump tender to 24 October; dual e-tender IDs formalise BKW guarantee for offsite pipelines
8EIL has pushed the due date on MRPL’s offsite pump package to 24-10-2025. The bid is split across two CPPP IDs, with a dedicated path to lock guaranteed parameters and pump BKW. That extra 14 days could change both participation depth and lifecycle-cost risk.
 
3) EIL extends MRPL pump tender to 24 October; pre-bid reply narrows Ex-d JB use while annexure pushes CPBG to 10%
8A two-week extension shifts the bid calculus for a limited vendor pool on MRPL’s offsite pump package. EIL’s clarification limits when a flameproof junction box is truly needed and keeps scope creep in check. But a tougher CPBG and an extra warranty year raise capital lock-ups that bidders cannot ignore.
 
4) Bid deadline pushed by 10 days for WAO reciprocating compressor in BPREP
8The compressor package for BPCL’s Bina petchem expansion moves to a 23 October close from an earlier 13 October. Nothing else in PQC, PRS or payment milestones shifts in the shared RFQ deck. The NDA-gated access and PPP-MII filters still decide who actually competes.

1) HPCL hardwires EI/JIG commissioning and D+X approvals for Bhogapuram ATFfuel farm and hydrant
8The Bhogapuram aviation fuel systems package folds DGCA/PESO approvals into the commissioning scope with penalties tied to dated milestones. Reverse auction and a modest turnover bar widen the field, but cash-security and “no extras” language tighten the screws on margins. The acceptance gate is EI/JIG-strict, and the dispute path lacks arbitration—what does that do to bid strategy and risk pricing?
 
2) Seven date pushes take IOCL Panipat 2G ethanol bale-feed LSTK to a 21 Oct close
8IOCL has extended the critical dates seven times on its Panipat 2G ethanol bale-feed LSTK, now closing on 21-Oct-2025. Nothing else changed — not the PQCs, not reverse auction, not the indivisible award. That combination suggests a thin but carefully curated vendor pool rather than a policy rethink.
 
3) NRL pushes PFCC/MS Block instrumentation (Group B) bid to 28 October after successive extensions
8NRL has moved the Group B instrumentation bid date for PFCC/MSB to 28 October. Three addenda show a step-wise slide from the original 23 September close. The paperwork is silent on reasons, but the technical Q&A volume offers clues.
 
4) Three bid extensions and a corrosion-monitoring spec reshape PFCC/MS instrumentation tender
8NRL has pushed the Group A bid due date three times, now closing on 28-Oct-2025. In parallel, tkUIPL has inserted a full corrosion-monitoring specification and tied off key BoQ ambiguities. The mix points to broader participation without easing standards.
 
5) Four bid extensions and tougher O&M cost rules shape GGL’s CNG compressor rate contract

8GGL pushed the bid date four times while issuing granular clarifications on compressor operability and costing. A PV-first evaluation, reverse auction back-stop and split-award construct will compress outliers and still keep a route for non-L1 shares. The new power and gas-loss costing template could be the quiet clause that shifts life-cycle pricing.

1) GAIL extends Pata APM bid twice; cash-flow back-loaded to verified benefits
8GAIL’s APM package for Pata has moved its goalpost by 37 days, with two October extensions. The scope remains firmly on-premise, tied to SAP and an in-progress RTDMP. Payment is now gated to post-audit outcomes and warranty-period performance.
 
2) EIL moves PPU conveyor pneumatic system bid deadline to 21 October
8The conveyor pneumatic system tender at NRL’s PPU has been pushed by eight days. EIL’s date shift comes on a high-spec package loaded with HAZOP/SIL, PGTR and training obligations. The change could reshape bidder readiness and price discipline in a bottom-line evaluation, but the reasons are not on record.
 
3) NRL pushes MSB coalescer bid to 28 October after locking instrument philosophy
8NRL has granted a nearly month-long push on its MSB coalescer package while issuing targeted technical clarifications. The owner has confirmed isolation, redundancy and voting logic, but left key implementation choices to vendors. Expect sharper pricing from process-capable OEMs as the definition risk recedes.
 
4) Three-step bid-deadline push signals caution on brownfield E&I tie-ins in MRPL FO & IRT project.
8MRPL and EIL have pushed the bid due date thrice on the FO & IRT E&I package. The original 23 September deadline now stands at 24 October, a net slip of 31 days. Nothing else in scope, PQC or zero-deviation is shown to have changed in the shared set.
 
5) HPCL’s Vizag pushes instrumentation O&M bid to 17 October after two extensions
8The company has moved its three-schedule instrumentation services bid from 7 October to 17 October. The buyer also re-baselined ATC via a corrigendum, tightening documentation and adding a 25% variation clause. The mix of RA and a long ePBG tail will shape pricing and bidder appetite.

8IOCL has moved its Barauni VRU EPCC-15 submission five times, from 30-07-2025 to 04-11-2025. The shift keeps a performance-guarantee-heavy package open as bidders firm up licensor support and capacity guarantees. But the extra 97 days now squeeze the BR-9 commissioning runway unless award sequencing compensates.

8IOCL and CB&I kept the evaluation spine intact while sliding the calendar from mid-March to early-November. The amendments shift only the bid due date and unpriced opening, leaving PQC and risk allocation untouched. That combination reshapes bidder behavior without lowering the bar. Contractor adopts FEED and cannot claim time or cost relief for FEED errors.

8BPCL is bidding for twin steam power-recovery packages that convert PRDS losses into electrical output. The scope is tightly engineered—from API-class hardware to ABB-supervised 6.6 kv protection—and acceptance is pinned to performance curves at actual steam states. The bars are high on PQC and on cash-security, and a small time anomaly in pre-bid could still trip the unprepared.

8The J-18 project—branded by IOCL as LuPech (Lube + Petrochemical Integration) at its Gujarat Refinery—has entered a decisive phase, with commissioning support tenders now live.
