PRPC grassroot toluene extraction licensor + BDEP package: Another extension

Feb 06: 8The tender’s entry barriers sit in hard reference-unit PQC and a liability-heavy guarantee framework that forces bidders to price engineering bandwidth and downside upfront.
8The new schedule may be less about admin time and more about preserving competition in a thin licensor market.

IOCL Parallel HCU reactors tell you this shutdown has no slack

Feb 06: 8Most refinery shutdowns buy time by sequencing work. One reactor is opened, stabilised, reloaded, and closed before the next is touched. It is the standard way owners retain schedule elasticity when something goes wrong.
8IOCL is explicitly not doing that here.

Downstream contracting briefs

Feb 06: 1) NRL’s polypropylene unit tender prices in 3D modelling, HARZOP and three-year PWAMC for the solid additive unloading packagelimited/polypropylene unit
8The real competition signal will surface in how bidders react to the polymer-reference similarity bar and the lifecycle obligations embedded in the bid matrix.
 
2) Refinery expansion project pumps package sees four deadline extensions
8The documents show a compliance-heavy API 610 special purpose pump scope, layered with NDA-driven confidentiality linked to the ethylene cracker unit licensor framework. The real story is what the extensions imply about bidder appetite, spec readiness, and how BPCL/EIL are trying to protect competition without diluting rejection discipline.
 
3) IOCL extends LuPech N2O2 O&M ARC as corrigendum hardwires fixed-vs-variable pricing under RA
8A mid-stream corrigendum quietly changes how bidders must structure price—ringfencing a fixed bucket and forcing proportional loading of the rest after reverse auction. The real fight will be over operational attribution: who “owns” purity excursions when penalties hinge on proving it was panel/field operation, not the plant’s hardware.

Who says gas based units do not run in the winters?

8And all of it is APM gas.

Downstream contracting briefs: Technical bid

Feb 05: 1) Two-bidder field locks in for BPCL’s demountable flare package
8The tender’s real gate is not capacity on paper but whether “demountable” can be proven through a contractual mount/demount demonstration with cranes, consumables, and execution risk sitting squarely on the contractor.

Downstream contracting briefs: Awards

Feb 05: 1) BPCL’s BPREP pressure vessel–CS package lands group-wise, with Mahathi taking three of five workpacks

Today's update in E&P, Midstream-Downstream & CGD sector

Feb 05: 8Here's what's happening today in the E&P, midstream-downstream, and CGD section
Click on Reports for more Details Details

Downstream contracting briefs

Feb 05: 1) Mehsana rig electrical retrofit tightens SITC accountability around MCCB-ELR integration
8ONGC is not buying breakers; it is buying a protection-and-control retrofit that must perform under live rig conditions.
8The scope quietly locks integration testing and compatibility into acceptance, reshaping who can realistically bid.
8The real contest will play out around access risk, not nameplate ratings.
 
2) 100 mw+ solar epc empanelment pushes evacuation and grid-change risk onto vendors
8OIL is not buying a plant here; it is building a vendor funnel for 100 mw+ solar assets that must perform for 25 years.
8The fine print quietly expands EPC into evacuation, approvals and right of way while reserving commercial pressure for later RFQs.
8A small documentation anomaly and a hard grid-change stance hint at how tough the next stage could be.
 
3) Participating bidders test HPWBM mud engineering tender on mobilisation clocks and centrifuge-only risk oil india/hpwbm drilling services
8Oil’s participating bidders pushed on camp support, equipment acceptability and how “optional” centrifuge services will really be used in the field.
8The promoter’s replies stayed mostly in “no change” territory, but a few edits quietly rewired mobilisation and consortium staffing in ways that can reshape who stays competitive.
8The technical compliance risk is now less about one HPWBM spec and more about whether bidders can absorb split mobilisation obligations without pricing themselves out.
 
4) ILM rig services tender timeline extended
8ONGC has pushed the bid deadline for its high-horsepower rig ILM services package deeper into February 2026.
8The extension is narrow, clean, and limited strictly to timelines, with no technical or commercial softening.
8The move raises familiar questions about bidder readiness in long-horizon drilling support contracts.
 
5) Performance based O&M at Bhaskar-1 field extended
8SunPetro has pushed the bid deadline for its Bhaskar-1 performance based O&M contract to March 2026.
8The move comes without any change to scope or risk allocation, keeping the pressure squarely on bidders.
8What triggered the extra time, and what it signals about participation, remains the key question.
 
6) ONGC pushes project dot system integrator empanelment closing to a later date
8The extension looks routine on paper, but the tender’s QBS evidence burden and a timeline-control choice buried in clarifications reshape who can realistically compete.
8What that means for bidder pool quality, evaluation risk, and the timing of downstream limited tenders is now the real story.

PRPC grassroot toluene extraction licensor + BDEP package: Another extension

Feb 06: 8The tender’s entry barriers sit in hard reference-unit PQC and a liability-heavy guarantee framework that forces bidders to price engineering bandwidth and downside upfront.
8The new schedule may be less about admin time and more about preserving competition in a thin licensor market.

IOCL Parallel HCU reactors tell you this shutdown has no slack

Feb 06: 8Most refinery shutdowns buy time by sequencing work. One reactor is opened, stabilised, reloaded, and closed before the next is touched. It is the standard way owners retain schedule elasticity when something goes wrong.
8IOCL is explicitly not doing that here.

Downstream contracting briefs

Feb 06: 1) NRL’s polypropylene unit tender prices in 3D modelling, HARZOP and three-year PWAMC for the solid additive unloading packagelimited/polypropylene unit
8The real competition signal will surface in how bidders react to the polymer-reference similarity bar and the lifecycle obligations embedded in the bid matrix.
 
2) Refinery expansion project pumps package sees four deadline extensions
8The documents show a compliance-heavy API 610 special purpose pump scope, layered with NDA-driven confidentiality linked to the ethylene cracker unit licensor framework. The real story is what the extensions imply about bidder appetite, spec readiness, and how BPCL/EIL are trying to protect competition without diluting rejection discipline.
 
3) IOCL extends LuPech N2O2 O&M ARC as corrigendum hardwires fixed-vs-variable pricing under RA
8A mid-stream corrigendum quietly changes how bidders must structure price—ringfencing a fixed bucket and forcing proportional loading of the rest after reverse auction. The real fight will be over operational attribution: who “owns” purity excursions when penalties hinge on proving it was panel/field operation, not the plant’s hardware.

Downstream contracting briefs: Technical bid

Feb 05: 1) Two-bidder field locks in for BPCL’s demountable flare package
8The tender’s real gate is not capacity on paper but whether “demountable” can be proven through a contractual mount/demount demonstration with cranes, consumables, and execution risk sitting squarely on the contractor.

Downstream contracting briefs: Awards

Feb 05: 1) BPCL’s BPREP pressure vessel–CS package lands group-wise, with Mahathi taking three of five workpacks
8The award outcome concentrates most value with one vendor, which tightens execution dependencies across multiple critical-service vessels. What that means for interface risk, inspection hold points, and the next BPREP equipment waves is where the real story sits.

Feb 05: 8Here's what's happening today in the E&P, midstream-downstream, and CGD section
Click on Reports for more Details Details

Downstream contracting briefs

Feb 05: 1) Mehsana rig electrical retrofit tightens SITC accountability around MCCB-ELR integration
8ONGC is not buying breakers; it is buying a protection-and-control retrofit that must perform under live rig conditions.
8The scope quietly locks integration testing and compatibility into acceptance, reshaping who can realistically bid.
8The real contest will play out around access risk, not nameplate ratings.
 
2) 100 mw+ solar epc empanelment pushes evacuation and grid-change risk onto vendors
8OIL is not buying a plant here; it is building a vendor funnel for 100 mw+ solar assets that must perform for 25 years.
8The fine print quietly expands EPC into evacuation, approvals and right of way while reserving commercial pressure for later RFQs.
8A small documentation anomaly and a hard grid-change stance hint at how tough the next stage could be.
 
3) Participating bidders test HPWBM mud engineering tender on mobilisation clocks and centrifuge-only risk oil india/hpwbm drilling services
8Oil’s participating bidders pushed on camp support, equipment acceptability and how “optional” centrifuge services will really be used in the field.
8The promoter’s replies stayed mostly in “no change” territory, but a few edits quietly rewired mobilisation and consortium staffing in ways that can reshape who stays competitive.
8The technical compliance risk is now less about one HPWBM spec and more about whether bidders can absorb split mobilisation obligations without pricing themselves out.
 
4) ILM rig services tender timeline extended
8ONGC has pushed the bid deadline for its high-horsepower rig ILM services package deeper into February 2026.
8The extension is narrow, clean, and limited strictly to timelines, with no technical or commercial softening.
8The move raises familiar questions about bidder readiness in long-horizon drilling support contracts.
 
5) Performance based O&M at Bhaskar-1 field extended
8SunPetro has pushed the bid deadline for its Bhaskar-1 performance based O&M contract to March 2026.
8The move comes without any change to scope or risk allocation, keeping the pressure squarely on bidders.
8What triggered the extra time, and what it signals about participation, remains the key question.
 
6) ONGC pushes project dot system integrator empanelment closing to a later date
8The extension looks routine on paper, but the tender’s QBS evidence burden and a timeline-control choice buried in clarifications reshape who can realistically compete.
8What that means for bidder pool quality, evaluation risk, and the timing of downstream limited tenders is now the real story.
