Nov 2025

The plasma-gasification hydrogen package has closed with a near-flat commercial curve, signalling strong industry appetite.
8L1 edged ahead at Rs 151.62 crore, barely separating itself from L2 and L3.
8What this says about India’s early hydrogen EPC market is inside the paywalled story Details
8Oil India has quietly granted a second extension on its Dandewala gas sweetening EPC tender, moving bid closing to 9 December 2025.
8The LSTK package for a 0.5 MMMSCMD CO2-removal unit still carries a Rs 5.36-crore EMD, stiff performance security and a dense compliance grid.
8Whether the longer runway unlocks stronger competition or just stretches bidder risk exposure will define how this flagship sequestration-linked job is ultimately priced and awarded.

1) Fifteen civil contractors vie for six-slot Mehsana drilling-site rate contract panel
8Fifteencivilcontractorsviefor six-slot Mehsana drilling-site rate contract panel Fifteen bidders are now in play for ONGC Mehsana’s three-year civil-works rate contract, but the work-distribution table has room for only six.
8Behind that simple arithmetic sit strict experience thresholds, TPIA-verified documents and firm prices for the 2025–28 drilling programme.
8How that combination of crowding and control reshapes margins, risk and eventual awards is where this story goes next.
 
2) Option clause, dates and securities reset but HPWBM risk stays with contractor
8OIL’s latest corrigenda on the HPWBM GeM tender nudge dates and securities without touching the core risk architecture.
8Contractors win more time, more banking flexibility and formalised MSE preference, but must still shoulder odour control, QC and well-risk burdens.
8The real story is how a handful of “amendment shall be issued” promises will, or will not, shift mobilisation and experience thresholds before bids finally close.
 
3) CTU and pumping fleet tenders pushed to 10 December without blinking on OEM bars
8Oil India has quietly moved the bid gate for its coiled tubing, multipurpose pumping and hot oil unit tenders to 10 December 2025.
8Pre-bid dates and bid-security cut-offs have been nudged, but the dense mesh of OEM, E&P-experience and document-verification rules remains untouched.
8Whether this extra time unlocks a deeper global OEM field or simply prolongs a high-bar contest will decide how fleet renewal plays out.

1) ONGC hard chrome tender pulls rig-critical repair work into three-month, high-liability job-shop mandate in ONGC CWS Vadodara hard chrome plating project.
8ONGC CWS Vadodara has turned a routine chrome-plating job into a tightly scripted service contract covering geometry, hardness bands and IS-linked finish.
8A 150 kilometre facility radius, per-item insurance slabs and six-month performance warranties shift custody and risk squarely onto local job-shops.
8How bidders price that mix of technical precision and liability will decide whether this becomes a replicable template for other rig-repair scopes.
 
2) Four-year mechanised tank sludge-cleaning mandate in Oil India tank bottom sludge evacuation project.
8Oil India has bundled thirty storage tanks and nearly 13,000 cu m of sludge into a single, four-year mechanised cleaning and inspection contract.
8Arham Oil Gas Products And Services Private Limited has taken the L1 slot at about Rs 26.24 crore under a clause-dense GeM framework.
8How that price balances HSE-heavy obligations, hazardous-waste liabilities and multi-site deployment demands will decide whether this becomes benchmark or cautionary tale.
 
3) LP gas compression O&M contract in ONGC Rajahmundry LP gas compression O&M.
8ONGC has handed its three-year LP gas compression O&M job at Tatipaka and Mandapeta to Teja Engineering with a bid far below the rest of the field.
8A detailed SOW and updated customs/GST and MSE clauses load heavy operational and compliance obligations onto the contractor.
8How those obligations intersect with such aggressive pricing will decide whether this becomes a new benchmark or a one-off gamble.
 
4) Three-year offshore weather-forecast mandate
8ONGC has handed its offshore weather-intelligence reins to Skymet in a tightly specified, API-driven GeM contract.
8The three-year mandate covers everything from daily sea-state calls to cyclone track bulletins for both western and eastern offshore theatres.
8What that price buys in terms of model capability, uptime and real-world decision support will now be watched far beyond the met-services community.

8A single-vendor contest has closed with Pall India securing the coalescer revamp package for BPCL’s Kochi polypropylene project. The NDA-bound scope ties directly to PFCCU and PP process reliability. The award exposes both the tight vendor ecosystem and the strict contractual discipline enforced by EIL.

1) NRL PFCC instrumentation tender: Three admitted bidders signal a controlled competition set
8Elmatics, Prime Engineers and Tuaman were admitted at the technical-stage.
8Their past refinery instrumentation exposure positions them well for PFCC requirements.
8The price outcome will hinge on risk-loading for hook-ups.
 
 2)
NRL MS Block instrumentation tender: Participation pattern shows mid-tier technical depth
8Only three bidders submitted technical offers, all admitted for evaluation.
8The field reflects contractors familiar with refinery instrumentation.
8Their cost structures will reveal how each priced the hidden risks.

1) HPCL Mumbai refinery hardens APC AMC with controller-uptime penalties and OEM-locked delivery model
8HPCL has issued a refinery-wide APC AMC that shifts risk onto the OEM by linking controller availability directly to invoice deductions. The scope embeds deeper engineering responsibilities across tuning, inferentials and APPNODE maintenance. But the strongest signal sits behind the uptime metric that now shapes how the system will be managed over the next year.
 
2) Tender deadline pushed to 16 December in second extension for IOCL LUPECH QC lab O&M
8IOCL has issued a second extension moving the LUPECH QC laboratory O&M bid deadline to 16 December 2025. The cumulative shift now totals roughly two months from the original October close. The expanded window suggests deeper bidder preparation rather than any dilution of conditions.
 
3) Bid deadline for NRL’s PPU centrifugal compressor package extended to 02 December
8EIL has pushed the submission cut-off for the PPU compressor package by seven days. The extension comes despite the earlier indication that schedule flexibility would be limited. Why this particular package required more time is not stated in the document.
 
4) IGGL extends bid deadline for Duliajan Feeder Line PMC tender by nine days
8IGGL has pushed the submission deadline for the Duliajan Feeder Line PMC tender from 1 December to 10 December. The move signals documentation-heavy participation requirements and a risk of thin competition. Why the extension matters becomes clear once the QCBS and staffing load is unpacked behind the paywall.
 
5) EIL freezes process basis and liability terms in GAIL’s HPRT package
8Vendors pressed for clarity on vapour fraction, flashing risk and supporting-company obligations, but EIL declined all changes. The client reaffirmed every clause of the retender, keeping the earlier thermodynamic and legal assumptions intact. The stance consolidates risk on OEMs, who must now design for the prescribed parameters without modification.

8ONGC has quietly bought another fortnight for its four-PSV hybrid newbuild tender without diluting any of the technical or contractual bars.
8A 28-day net shift from the original November dates now frames a December bid and opening window for this DP2 and ESS-heavy package.
8Whether that extra time expands competition or simply codifies schedule drift is the question bidders are now asking in the background.

8Participated bidders at ONGC’s Nhava material handling tender have forced the promoter to spell out its new Fair Wage Policy reality in black and white.
8Gratuity is now confirmed as a contractor-only liability for fresh contracts, even as wage revisions remain reimbursable and penalties for daily tonnage shortfalls stay sharp.
8The result is a qualified field of eight players that must turn labour-law clarity into commercially viable rates under an unforgiving operational regime.

8Both domestic output and LNG imports shrink together. LNG imports down 11.1%, and total consumption falling 7.1%. A rare synchronised decline that signals deeper structural weakness in gas-fired sectors.
8The data shows that power sector gas burn crashes 17%. It is the lowest in years
8Data shows that LNG trucks barely exist. The category is stagnant at a statistical zero
8The eyebrow raising data is that industrial gas consumption falls 37%, clearly worst performing category
8Another point is that refinery gas use drops 18%. This is another indicator of downstream softness

1) Five-round deadline drift reshapes bidder calculus in ONGC Hazira
8The ONGC Hazira composite pipeline tender has now slipped by 83 days through five successive extensions. Each notice carried only a one-line date shift, with no supporting clarifications or scope changes. The prolonged drift raises questions about bidder readiness, technical alignment, and the evolving risk appetite around this revamp package.
 
2) Five-step deadline drift marks BPCL Kochi PP pump package
8EIL extended the LCWS pump tender deadline five times, pushing closure more than a month beyond the original date. The unusually long drift points to documentation-heavy requirements and possible vendor readiness gaps. What this means for competition, sequencing, and downstream engineering sits behind the wall.
 
3) Fourth extension pushes BPCL BPREP column-tower bid window to December
8BPCL and EIL have pushed the carbon-steel column and tower package deadline through four successive extensions. Vendors now have until 04 December to submit bids for one of BPREP’s most fabrication-intensive scopes. The elongated window hints at a stretched vendor pool and high document-processing demands.
 
4) EIL extends Butene-1 licensor bid deadline to 11 December
8EIL has shifted the Butene-1 licensor submission deadline to 11 December, adding a 15-day buffer to the original timeline. The move comes without any accompanying technical or commercial changes. The extension subtly widens the competitive window in a tender driven by heavy documentary qualification.
 
5) Bid deadline for labyrinth compressor package pushed twice in NRL PPU project
8The COMP-RECIPRO package has received two consecutive extensions beyond the original 17 November deadline. Vendors now have until 1 December to complete NDA-gated documentation and align with the MR requirements. The delay reshapes evaluation timing but leaves scope and conditions untouched.

1) Offshore well testing NIT packs digital data demands and high-spec safety kit into tough commercial frame Oil India KG DSF-II Andaman
8Oil India’s new offshore well testing tender for KG DSF-II and Andaman blocks reads more like a full-field evaluation charter than a simple spread rental.
8SSTT redundancy, sour-service ratings to 10,000 psi, WITSML real-time data and strict ESD integration all sit alongside a near Rs 1 crore EMD and a 5% ePBG.
8How bidders price and qualify these obligations will decide whether this becomes Oil India’s new template or a one-off high-bar experiment.
 
2) Participated bidders push ONGC drill pipe spinner tender towards broader OEM eligibility but tighter long-tail guarantees
8Four international bidders have stepped into ONGC’s drill pipe spinner tender just as the company rewrites key clauses on delivery, guarantees and qualification.
8Some clarifications clearly favour contractor logistics and wider eligibility, while others quietly lock in longer-tail performance security for ONGC.
8The still-opaque reply on multi-lot shipments and LC payment will decide how far the risk needle really moved after participation.
 
3) Six domestic crane houses vie for 10T EOT package under tight PPP-MII and cash-flow terms in ONGC
8Six Indian crane and fabrication players have lined up for ONGC’s 10T EOT crane job at Nhava, but the paper trail of their clarifications is missing.
8A 100% local-content bar, long-tail performance security and gantry frame design liability all remain on the table as originally drafted.
8The real question now is whether ONGC has quietly softened any of these edges behind closed doors — or intends this template to stand untouched.
 
4) Bid submission for Aframax tanker SBM charter extended to 02 December 2025 in ONGC Mumbai High crude logistics
8ONGC has quietly given tanker owners an extra week to line up RoFR-compliant Aframax tonnage for its Mumbai High SBM charter.
8The technical bar and DG Shipping age norms remain untouched, but the window for TPIA-backed documentation and pricing has shifted.
8Whether this seven-day reprieve broadens competition or merely formalises existing interest will be visible only at techno-commercial opening.
 
5) Bid closing for fishbones drilling system in Baghewala extended by seven days to 02 December 2025 in Oil India Baghewala PML
8Oil India has given bidders an extra week to price and structure a highly specialised fishbones drilling package for five Baghewala horizontal wells.
8The extension leaves a tough EMD/ePBG regime and dense technical responsibilities untouched, making time the only relaxation on offer.
8Whether that is enough to deepen competition without slipping the project’s heavy-oil timetable is the question the full note explores.
 
6) ONGC CPD Mumbai whipstock tender hardens GCC and documentation rules even as pre-bid replies are followed by a surprise bid-date extension.
8ONGC’s whipstock tender pre-bid meeting shuts the door on GCC/BEC negotiations but opens up a long list of promised written clarifications.
8Bidders are warned that one mis-step on e-BG or TPIA could cost them a three-year offshore service contract.
8Yet the later extension of the bid closing date hints that schedule rigidity may give way when operational realities bite.

8Techno-economic clauses are modified and they change how catalyst, co-catalyst and adsorbent costs will be modelled across operating cycles.
8Design pressures for critical steam and boiler-feed utilities have also been upgraded, tightening licensor design obligations.
8Training load, hydrogen purity tables and BEDP deliverable definitions have been simultaneously clarified, signalling a sharper evaluation framework.

8Three successive amendments have bought bidders seventy extra days without yielding any relaxation on the Rs 8 crore bid security, 3% performance security or four-year term.
8Whether this is tactical schedule management or a sign of thin early interest will only become clear once the bids finally open.

8IOCL’s new maintenance tender for TPS boilers and HRSGs raises the reliability bar with strict one-year no-failure conditions. The scope bundles high-pressure valve work, APH balancing, and burner revisioning into a round-the-clock execution model. Contractors face tighter safety, IBR, and mobilization requirements that reshape the risk profile of routine shutdown work.

8The multi-utility vessel charter quietly rewires both pricing mechanics and operational risk.
8Mobilisation, demobilisation and ancillary charges are now hemmed in by hard caps and a new “limiting of charges” undertaking, while a quantified penalty looms over any platform contact.
8What this does to bidder behaviour, margins and fleet choices will only be visible once the commercial bids are locked in.

1) ONGC stretches onshore wireline logging tender to 9 December as remobilisation, packer and deep-well clauses are quietly rewritten
8ONGC has quietly pushed its limited onshore wireline logging tender to 9 December while sprinkling in a dense set of SCC, SOW and price-format tweaks.
8The headline dates move looks benign, but underneath it, remobilisation windows, packer responsibilities, SEZ mobilization caps and deep-well obligations all shift in ways that change bidder risk.
8Contractors now have four more weeks to decide whether this revised balance of operational duty and tax exposure is still worth chasing.
 
2) ONGC pushes offshore wireline and intervention tender to 9 December
8ONGC’s offshore wireline and well intervention tender ZV5GL25004 has been nudged from an 11 November close to a 9 December finish, but the office note still calls it a “two-week” extension.
8Behind that mislabelled delay sit new rules on CIS, remobilisation windows, sample disposal and MRCS pricing that subtly move the risk dial.
8Contractors now have four more weeks to decide whether the amended offshore playbook is tight but workable, or just too loaded with tax, logistics and CIS exposure to touch.
 
3) ONGC western offshore WBDF tender pushes technical bid opening to 6 January 2026 as high-bar BEC meets long-form extension
8ONGC has quietly moved the technical bid opening for its western offshore WBDF mega-tender from 9 October 2025 to 6 January 2026.
8The shift stretches the timeline by nearly three months in a contract that already demands ONGC-lab-tested formulations, TPIA-verified experience and heavy financial muscle.
8What that does to the bidder pool, pricing power and the drilling calendar will only become visible once the sealed bids are finally opened.
 
4) ONGC stretches HPHT wireline logging tender by 84 days without touching risk-heavy HPHT scope.
8ONGC has now pushed its flagship HPHT wireline logging tender ZV5GC25002 out to a 09 December 2025 submission, 10 December opening, via two separate extensions.
8The technical matrix still demands 300–500°F HPHT tools, advanced imaging and multi-day post-processing, with contractors carrying fishing, spares and turnaround risk.
8The only real movement is on time and a cross-tender financial certificate, leaving bidders to decide whether the longer runway is enough to justify full-fleet HPHT mobilisation.

1) ONGC frontiers three-year call-out environment monitoring for departmental rigs loads long-tail risk onto labs
8ONGC has quietly bundled all key environment checks for its departmental rigs E-2000-VIII and E-2000-VI into a single three-year GeM service contract.
8Behind the familiar CPCB/MoEFCC labels sits an at-will termination clause, a 38-month performance guarantee and a reverse auction that will test how far environmental labs will stretch for frontier-basin work.
8How contractors price that cocktail of multi-state mobilisation, undefined job volumes and tight cash-flow lock-up will decide who gets to hold ONGC’s monitoring clipboard at the rig site.
 
2) Ten technically-cleared bidders chase ONGC’s LP gas compression O&M at Rajahmundr
8ONGC’s GeM O&M tender for LP gas compression at Tatipaka and Mandapeta has drawn a crowded field of 12 bidders, with 10 making the technical cut.
8Compressor OEMs, O&M specialists and regional service houses now have to price a three-year, 24×7 availability mandate under a sharper MSE policy, a defined manpower-based floor price and a higher 18% concessional IGST/GST regime.
8How those clarifications translate into margin, risk and final award spreads is where the real story now lies.
 
3) ONGC tightens bid security and governance but upgrades force majeure in integrated SJS and SHD services corrigendum and date-extended tender
8ONGC’s multi-basin integrated SJS and SHD tender has quietly changed shape through a dense corrigendum that rewrites force majeure and hardens bid security.
8The documents now stretch bank and insurance instruments, add anti-cartel language and still refuse to relax the five-year experience gate, even as GeM pushes the bid end to 02 December 2025.
8Whether that mix favours a small club of proven seismic contractors or opens room for disciplined challengers will be decided only in the reverse auction.
 
4) ONGC pushes TCP-DST and specialised services tender bid deadline but leaves the tough SCC framework unchanged.
8ONGC has quietly granted bidders more time on its flagship TCP-DST and specialised services tender, stretching the submission window to 09 December 2025.
8The move comes after a dense corrigendum cycle and a wave of bidder queries on risk-heavy conditions, but without any visible softening of the underlying SCC or BEC.
8Whether this becomes an opportunity for sharper, more competitive pricing or a mere breathing space before a thin contest will only be known once the bids open on 10 December.

8ONGC has closed its three-year tender for covering pipeline exposures at Hazira and Uran–Trombay with Yojaka India Private Limited in the L1 seat at Rs 7.97 crore.
8The award hands one contractor full responsibility for gabion-heavy protection, river-crossing covers and sacrificial bunds around operating high-pressure pipelines, with ONGC supplying no material.
8How that price holds against tides, monsoons, access risks and inspection-heavy obligations will decide whether this becomes a template or a cautionary tale.
