1) GST raised to 18%, mobilisation LDs tightened, bid pushed to 23 October in Oil India’s Kerala-Konkan Tier-1 OSR
8Oil India has baked a mid-cycle GST hike into its Kerala-Konkan Tier-1 spill-response tender while locking ATC precedence and quantified mobilisation LDs.
8The bid date moves to 23 October, giving vendors room to align IACS certifications, stock, and Kochi manpower.
8But the two-hour emergency readiness, vintage caps, and a hard option clause will still filter the field to pre-positioned specialists.
 
2) Tender timeline pushed by one day for civil works at CB-ONN-2005/9 & 2005/3
8Corrigendum-1 extends the bid due date to 09 October 2025 and aligns opening on 10 October 2025.
8No commercial or technical relaxations accompany the shift.
8The move preserves “critical” classification discipline while offering bidders tactical breathing room.
 
3) Bid closing and technical opening shifted to 16 October with calibrated liability and payment tweaks
8OIL has moved bid closing and opening to 16 October 2025, extending the runway without loosening PQC or mobilisation discipline for the Drilling Directional Wells with RSS-SDMM plus MWD-LWD plus Jar including Mud Services tender.
8Annexure-A1 quietly reshapes two pressure points: downhole loss depreciation and consortium payment routing.
8The balance tilts toward cleaner execution and marginally lower risk pricing, with governance rails intact.
 
4) Bid window pushed to 23 October with targeted scope and design edits in OIL Jorhat CBG plant
8OIL has moved the EPCOM bid gate to 23 October with same-day technical opening.
8Corrigendum-5 also strips out blanket 130% over-design and cleans up municipal interfaces while fixing a 30% factor of safety at pre-feed.
8The signals point to comparability and constructability without loosening the commercial spine.

8OIL’s 1000 HP mobile rig tender is now working to a 23 October closing, materially longer than the original GeM calendar.
8The documents provided here don’t carry the extension notice, but all commercial and technical controls remain intact.
8Expect more bidders, not looser terms.
Click on Details for more Details
8OIL has shifted the bid closing to 04 November 2025 with same-day technical opening.
8No commercial or technical clauses moved with the calendar.
8The 28-day cushion is designed to deepen competition without diluting risk controls.
Click on Details for more Details
8ONGC has discontinued the stand-alone NIT and moved the process to its empowerment portal.
8The technical bars and downstream limited-tender pathway remain intact, tightening the vendor pool without pausing rig availability.
8The shift alters timing and workflow, not the underlying risk-allocation.
Click on Details for more Details
8ONGC has extended the bid window and tightened term mechanics on its 3,000 m drillship hire.
8The operator held the line on LDs while easing first-well MPD timing to reflect market realities.
8That mix of schedule discipline and operational pragmatism will shape both pricing and participation.

1) Fishing tool basket tightened with single-award and strict submission protocol in Sun Petrochemicals/Hazira Block
8SunPetro wants a complete, OEM-backed fishing suite sized for 5-1/2” casing at Hazira, with 8–12 week delivery and 30-day cash terms.
8A single award, steep LDs, and rigid bid-bond/format rules point to schedule protection over bidder latitude.
8The gating on recent oil & gas PTR and OEM authorization will likely shape a smaller, more reliable vendor pool.
 
2) High-temperature, multi-stage frac-CT campaign hardens QA and securities, tenure clarity pending in ONGC Rajahmundry and CBM assets
8ONGC is buying a full frac-CT stack for 325°F tight sands with deep in-country lab and proppant QA.
8High EMD and a 5%/30-month ePBG push bids toward integrated houses with inventory and Model-50 capacity.
8A one-year SOW note versus a two-year GeM header could reshape pricing unless clarified at pre-bid.
 
3) Outcome-pay MPC with six-month sustain KPI re-prices risk in Baghewala pilot
8Oil India is buying MPC services for six Baghewala wells with cashflows tied to sustained production uplift.
8The KPI and monthly payment gate move risk from delivery to performance.
8With customs concessions defined and “No arbitration/mediation” shown, bidders will recalibrate both pricing and governance.
 
4) Gratuity liability shifts and IGST raised to 18% as ONGC tightens Nhava base handling contract
8Two pre-bid participants pressed ONGC on gratuity and welfare policy reimbursements — and got a harder line for new hires post-28.07.2025.
8A mid-bid amendment hiked IGST to 18% for List-33 petroleum-operations goods, re-shaping landed-cost math.
8The penalties and mobilisation LDs remain intact, putting delivery risk squarely on the contractor.
 
5) PPP-MII gating and e-BG rails define the playing field as ONGC extends SMART-FRS bid to 29 October
8Eight OEM-integrator teams turned up as ONGC’s pan-India facial recognition rollout tightened eligibility to Class-I/Class-II local suppliers.
8Electronic securities, insolvency bars, and an active-active DC/DR mandate reshape both risk and readiness.
8With the bid pushed to 29 October, the contest shifts from price alone to who can prove scale, compliance and uptime.
 
Click on Details for more Details
1) Four bid extensions push BPREP tankages tender into mid-October
8A single-part, firm-price architecture remains intact even as the bid window slid by six weeks. PPP-MII enforcement with invoice-level retention tightens compliance screws during execution. Working-capital and documentation discipline will decide who stays competitive.
  
2) NRL PFCC instrumentation tender gets three extensions and tighter specs
8NRL has pushed the PFCC instrumentation bid to 14-Oct with matching opening shifts. The technical pack now fixes corrosion monitoring and network hardware expectations mid-tender. Behind the date changes is a bid pool recalibrating to clarified scope and strict PQ rules.
  
3) Three weekly extensions push NRL MS Block instrumentation bid to 14 Oct
8NRL’s Group B instrumentation tender has slipped by three straight weeks from its original 23 September close. The owner has kept technical opening one day behind each time while leaving PQC and EMD rules untouched. The cadence hints at participation and scope-certainty calculus rather than a shift in commercial stance.
  
4) Gujarat Gas pushes compressor capacity revamp while extending bid deadline to 14 Oct
8GGL has stretched the bid clock by 22 days even as it tightens the technical screws. A 2025 spec refresh adds higher-throughput options and pares back dispenser add-ons. The CAMC pack quietly introduces an SAT penalty that could reshape pricing.
  
5) BPCL extends ATF pipeline survey ARC bid by five days to widen vendor participation
8BPCL has quietly pushed the deadline for its ATF survey ARC to 13 October, a five-day reprieve for survey agencies struggling with GeM uploads. The extension comes amid tight qualification rules and zero EMD requirements that tilt the field toward experienced surveyors. Behind the routine date change lies a window into how BPCL is standardising loss-control contracts across its fuel pipeline network.
 
6) Bid deadline pushed twice; integrity pact flipped to mandatory for BPCL VBPL vertical-pump package
8BPCL’s VBPL pump package has been nudged forward twice, buying bidders 11 extra days. But the buyer also tightened governance by turning the integrity pact from optional to compulsory. The scope geometry and instrumentation have been clarified, leaving little room for on-site surprises.

8IOCL-Bongaigaon has moved to secure licensor services for its HGU-PSA, opting for a single-licensor line-up. The bid architecture prioritises continuity and reliability over broad competition. But buried in the fine print are risk-transfer signals and evaluation levers that will shape delivery and margins.

1) EIL calls pre-tender for propylene mounded bullets for 360 KTPA polypropylene unit in NRL Golaghat
8NRL and EIL have opened the floor on a high-hazard storage package that will decide readiness for the polypropylene unit. The turnkey scope spans from plate to pre-commissioning but key commercial levers are still not on the table. What gets clarified at the pre-tender will determine both the bidder pool and the risk premium.
 
2) Thick-wall tall towers and strict site QA raise the bar for Bina petchem expansion — BPCL/BPREP
8BPCL’s Bina expansion puts an unusually dense slate of tall, thick-wall columns into a single MR with full-column shop hydro and site seam hydro baked in. The BQC knots large diameter, ≥54 mm metallurgy, and trayed-column experience within seven years, shrinking the viable pool. An exacting HSE regime and a long-tail NDA around licensor data further reshape who can credibly bid.
 
3) Delivery ambiguity and platinum cashflow intact in CCR catalyst retender for IOCL Mathura refinery
8The retender moved dates but left the platinum and assay machinery unchanged. A two-month NIT line clashes with a four-month technical delivery clause, raising schedule and LD questions. One typo in the LC line also needs fixing before funds flow.
 
4) BPCL tightens reliability screws with 24-month warranty-tied PBG on nitrogen plant — Lucknow LPG plant.
8A small-ticket nitrogen package now carries big-ticket warranty leverage. The specification pins purity and pressure while compressing delivery windows. The vendor pool will narrow to those who can absorb a 5% hold for two years.
 
5) IOCL Barauni oxygen plant O&M goes 24×7 with wage pass-through and restart duty
8IOCL has floated a two-year O&M for its 450 NM³/hr PSA oxygen unit with a hard 24×7 manning mandate. The wage-variation clause pays for statutory increases but bars profit on the differential, changing how contractors think about margin. A restart is compulsory because the plant has been idle since September 2024, and that’s where execution risk concentrates.

8The tender elevates SCC terms over GCC and OCC in case of conflict. That shifts the locus of interpretation onto the scope-specific pages. Contractors will need to treat SCC wording as the de-facto rulebook.

1) Liability cap, SPCB-linked authorizations and HDPE liner mandate shape the field after bidder pushback for Bioremediation
8Three participants are in and the fine print has shifted where it hurts.
8ONGC has capped post-restoration liability to 12 months but kept liners mandatory and quantities non-committal.
8The balance between insurability and environmental assurance just got recalibrated.
 
2) ONGC Assam Asset Potassium Chloride dosing: Update
8ONGC has rewritten the tax playbook mid-tender and given bidders 13 more days to adjust.
8The dosing specifications stay unforgiving, but the fiscal framing just got tighter.
8The price signals this triggers will decide who stays competitive.
 
3) ONGC O&M of Shertha Kalol bulk cement plant extended to 14 October 2025
8ONGC has granted a uniform seven-day push across bid submission and opening milestones.
 
4) SunPetro Bhaskar-I real-time monitoring tender pushed to 15 October 2025 under Bulletin-4, all other terms unchanged.
8SunPetro has granted a second extension, moving the bid window to 15 October 2025 at 15:00 IST.
8The architecture remains frozen around Emerson RTUs and DeltaV, with no reverse auction.
8The shift widens room for compliant bids without relaxing cash-security or delivery obligations.
 
Click on Details for more Details
1) Four-position UT and guided-wave push ONGC’s RMD GCS integrity survey into high-coverage, on-stream territory in Cauvery Asset.
8ONGC has framed an unusually prescriptive UT survey that hardwires four-position readings and guided-wave for the tough spots.
8The contractor must also own insulation, scaffolding and epoxy restoration, turning it into a turn-key integrity lot.
8With a limited GeM bid and no EMD/ePBG, competition narrows to capability, not balance-sheet muscle.
 
2) Latest-version, 14-day install and inversion-ready petrophysics stack sought for Bhaskar-I
8SunPetro has framed a petrophysics-first software buy that forces integrated, multi-well evaluation on the latest versions only.
8Cash securities are standard, but commercial levers like split awards and change orders sit firmly with the buyer.
8The deployment clock starts ticking fast with a 14-day install-and-train mandate.
 
3) Cairn pre-screens OCTG suppliers with liquidity floor and proportional consortium bonding for Barmer wells
8The EOI sets a high bar on finances, HSE history and operator-grade references before any OCTG volumes are tendered.
8A proportional consortium rule ties financial tests and future PBG slices to actual workshare.
8That combination could narrow the pool to mills and integrators with real skin in the game.
 
4) 20 bidders: Thirty percent clear the technical gate for ONGC Assam Asset’s HAZOP/QRA lot
8Six of twenty bidders made the technical cut, leaving a compact field for pricing.
8The SOW anchors PHAST/SAFETI and worksheet-driven HAZOP, with a 180-day delivery clock.
8With pre-bid interactions closed off, documentation rigour became the decisive filter.

8The owner's plan elevates dew point control, SIL-3 protection and modular swap-out into pre-qualification must-haves.
8A 6-month LSTK window, staged over prefabricated skids, aims to minimise production disruption.
8The acceptance hinge is a continuous 72-hour run test with zero tolerance for defects.

Patels Airtemp takes SS pressure vessels for PLL’s PDH-PP at Dahej
8EIL closed a limited, composite-bid award for stainless-steel pressure vessels at PLL’s PDH-PP project in Dahej. Patels Airtemp emerged L1 at about Rs 5.53 crore, with a wide 82.6% tail to L10. The tender’s NDA-gated, zero-deviation structure shaped both participation and pricing.
Click on Details for more Details
1) EIL opens technical bids for API-610 pump package, eight OEMs vie for PDH-PP services in PLL’s Dahej plant
8A high-stakes pump package for PLL’s PDH-PP complex has drawn eight serious contenders. Zero-deviation, firm pricing, and tight licensor-IP controls point to a reliability-first posture. The field now pivots to compliance depth, delivery credibility, and lifecycle value.
 
2) GAIL Pata calibration tender hard-codes on-site coverage and three-cycle ISO 17025 regime
8GAIL has pushed a stringent, reliability-first calibration package for its Pata complex. Three cycles, 95% on-site coverage, and uncertainty-backed certificates are now baseline. A penalty-led discipline and EIC gatekeeping will decide who can actually deliver.

Click on Details for more Details
8EIL has cancelled its limited RFQ for a reciprocating compressor with labyrinth sealing under NRL’s PPU. The move pauses an otherwise standard two-part e-bid with no EMD and an 18-month FOB delivery clock. Whether this is a scope recalibration or a sequencing call will shape vendor strategy on any re-tender.

8HPCL has clarified price math and tightened bid hygiene for its leadership ADC programme. The SLA pushes platform reliability and rapid reporting with explicit penalties. A high technical cutoff has already narrowed the field to five capable firms.
Click on Details for more Details
8IOCL’s GeM tender for a fast-track petrochemical market assessment drew eight bidders but only four cleared technical scrutiny.
8The revised contract removes financial barriers but enforces tight deliverables and accountability.
8Its structure hints at IOCL’s accelerated downstream strategy and new model for knowledge-based procurement.
Click on Details for more Details
1) Bid due extended to 15 October for air-preheater at Hydrogen-II in MRPL
8MRPL has pushed its GeM bid for the Hydrogen-II air pre-heater to mid-October. The scope stays intact, but the clock moves to accommodate stronger compliance and OEM confirmations. The commercial spine (PRS, ePBG, L1 rules) remains unchanged.
 
2) Bid window pushed to 30 October for PP-unit catalyst package in IOCL Panipat P-25
8IOCL has moved the bid deadline twice for its PP-unit catalyst buy at Panipat. The scope and risk architecture remain intact, with RA, CPBG through PGTR, and strict outlet specs. The extra time could reshape participation and combination pricing across the three column tags.

Click on Details for more Details
1) Four extensions push IOCL Paradip CFBC-steam EOI to 27 Oct, widening the BOO field
8IOCL has shifted the Paradip CFBC BOO EOI deadline four times, now landing on 27 Oct 2025. The extension streak, with EMD still waived at EOI, reshapes bidder calculus on scope, interfaces and compliance. The opening timeline and any clause changes are not specified in information with us
 
2) Two-step bid push to 13 Oct keeps price firmness intact in EIL/MRPL FO & IRT E&I package
8EIL has nudged the bid clock twice on MRPL’s FO & IRT E&I package without touching commercials. The calendar now lands on 13 October, giving bidders breathing room on OEM integrations and brownfield interfaces. Price firmness and a five-month delivery KPI still hold.
 
3) HPCL Visakh refinery pushes bid end to 14 october and resets ATC with a 25% option clause
8HPCL’s Visakh refinery has extended the bid window by a week while rewriting the buyer-added ATC. The new terms hard-wire a 25% option on quantity or duration and tighten compliance through nil-deviation and integrity pact declarations. Bidders now have time to recalibrate risk and documentation before the reverse auction.
 
4) Barauni Biturox UPS package gets 16-day bid extension under RFQ-first regime
8IOCL has extended the limited UPS bid while keeping RFQ terms firmly above GeM templates. The option clause and inspection-in-price keep cost and schedule levers with the owner. Vendors now have extra time to align to strict MR and ECS interface demands.
 
5) Paradip crane-hire tender relaxes 250-MT duty point but tightens HSE and documents
8IOCL has extended its Paradip heavy-equipment hire tender twice, even as it trims a key performance clause for the flagship 250-MT crane. The configuration and HSE controls remain stringent, but the load-curve duty point is no longer codified. That combination should widen the bidder pool and sharpen reverse-auction dynamics.

Click on Details for more Details
8IOCL has narrowed the feasibility to a capex-first study while formalising ISBL/OSBL cost grouping. The licensor-anchored configuration curbs speculative economics and prioritises integration, utilities, and logistics to port. Two extensions from the original 30-Sep close point to more time for panel bidders, but the scope discipline remains intact.
Click on Details for more Details
1)  Wage-risk split and 24×7 shift cover define instrumentation services for MRPL aromatic complex
8MRPL’s new package hard-codes a two-year firm SOR for installs while carving out limited pass-through on shift manpower. The scope fuses analyzer, OFC, CCTV, cabling and earthing into a single accountable contract under the EIC. The operational mandates and PQC bars will shape who bids — and how sharply they price risk.
 
2) Bid window pushed to 23 October for rotary-lobe pump package in Petronet LNG Dahej
8EIL has extended the bid submission twice, moving the window by a full month. The scope stays unchanged, but documentation and NDA steps appear to have driven the schedule. Expect a broader field and tighter compliance at opening.
 
3) EIL holds delivery line in NRL’s DCU ultrasonic flowmeter spec but tightens flare MW window in NRL DCU revamp.
8EIL has clarified the metrology envelope for the flare tag and allowed intrinsic safety alongside flameproof. Vendors pushed for more time, but the six-month clock didn’t budge. A no-spares call and selective material flex could still keep the field competitive.
 
4) PLL Bahraich 70 TDP CBG EPCM: Bid date pushed to 07 Nov; address shifted
8PLL has extended the Bahraich 70 TPD CBG EPCOM submission by a full month while shifting the bid-receipt address. The PQC reference date, EMD and fee mechanics are untouched, signalling quality discipline over scope churn. The practical impact is on bidder readiness and compliance, not on technical content.
 
5) Three-step extension widens the gate for acetic acid tanks LSTK for GMPL’s PTA plant in Mangalore
8GMPL has pushed the bid clock thrice, taking the submission cut-off from 22 September to 16 October. The un-priced opening moved in tandem, preserving evaluation sequence. The commercial guardrails stay intact even as participation time expands.

The winds of professional reform are finally sweeping through India’s oil PSUs — but not everyone is taking the same path.
8At Indian Oil Corporation (IOC), Chairman Arvinder Singh Sahney has launched a highly selective leadership acceleration track under Project SPRINT, aimed at grooming just 50–70 high-potential executives for top management and future board-level roles.
8At Hindustan Petroleum Corporation Ltd (HPCL), meanwhile, a more expansive approach is underway — one that aims to assess and develop nearly 500 executives through a rigorously structured, data-driven Assessment and Development Centre (ADC) model.
8Both programmes target the same end: to future-proof PSU leadership against rapid market and technology change.
8But their methods could not be more different. Details

Q2 is not a great quarter for oil & gas companies. And it is not going to be a great year generally
8Yet, two companies are likely to shine: OIL and ONGC going ahead
Why is that so? Details
Arvinder Singh Sahney was appointed IOCL boss in November 2024
8And he launched SPRINT in April, 2025
8And it has, according to the chairman, already in these few months posted some eyebrow raising performance improvement. It will probably be the fast turnaround in global refining history
8If a giant slow moving company like IOCL can SPRINT like this, one is left wondering what really is going on.
8We get you the background story

8Company hardwires floor-price autonomy
Click on Details for more Details
1) OIL HOCU procurement tightens credential-TPI and pre-shipment testing to lock reliability at the factory
8OIL’s HOCU tender hard-wires third-party verification of bidder credentials and dual-layer equipment inspection.
8A ten-year non-obsolescence and spares covenant pushes lifecycle risk back to OEMs.
8The cashflow flips to commissioning performance, changing how bidders price QA and on-site readiness.
 
2) Portable drilling and well control simulator with offshore envelope targeted for rapid commissioning
8ONGC’s ATI wants a portable simulator that still carries full offshore complexity, from riser handling to deepwater floater scenarios.
8IWCF/IADC-aligned modules and physical choke/BOP panels are on the table.
8A five-year AMC, remote diagnostics, and 30-day commissioning signal urgency and lifecycle intent.
 
3) Harsh Engineering wins with a 10.7% edge on offshore overhaul assistance in ONGC N&H Asset
8A three-year, 4,273 man-day assistance contract has gone to Harsh Engineering with a clear margin.
8The envelope covers compressor, turbine-generator and pump overhauls under OEM-FSR supervision on Neelam & Heera.
8The spread suggests contrasting views on mobilization agility and offshore HSE-ready bench strength.
 
4) Truck-mounted spec affirmed and HOC unit age relaxed to 10 years, as duty moves to 18% IGST — ONGC HOC units (Mehsana/Ahmedabad/Jorhat)
8Pre-bid pressure sought OEM gating and stricter credentials.
8ONGC instead fixed the truck-mount mandate, broadened the age window to ten years, and leaned on TPIA and residual-life tests.
8A live customs-duty update to 18% now hard-codes landed-cost math into bids.
 
5) Corrigendum tightens deployment, liability and fleet standards in ONGC coil tubing call-out
8ONGC has reaffirmed a one-day deployment rule with no mobilisation or standby payouts across three assets.
8Equipment flexibility requests were rejected as the buyer locks in a 1-1/4", truck-mounted, ≤10-year fleet.
8A clarified no-charge fishing clause on contractor-caused stuck-coil events sharpens operational accountability.

Pressure-vessel package locks in under zero-deviation terms as EIL picks winner for PLL’s Dahej PDH-PP project
8The pressure-vessel award for PLL’s PDH-PP at Dahej has closed on a zero-deviation, single-envelope composite bid. Payment milestones are unusually granular, shifting liquidity earlier for compliant fabricators. But the bid stack shows an eye-popping spread that raises questions about scope reading and group wise evaluation.

1) Express Global wins ODC route-survey for PRFCC/SRU at BPCL Mahul with steep long-tail bids
8BPCL’s PRFCC/SRU heavy-haul survey drew an L1 and a wide spread to the rest. The scope pushes deep into port, city, and internal-refinery routing up to foundation points. The pricing gap hints at sharply different risk models for intra-Mumbai execution.
 
2) Mahabal wins BPCL Mumbai PRFCCU CTE consultancy with 5.6% margin over L2 in BPCL PRFCCU CTE
8BPCL has awarded the PRFCCU CTE consultancy on GeM with tight delivery and governance knobs. A two-month CAC approval KPI collides with a 20-month PBG tail, shifting risk onto the vendor. The pricing spread hints at a narrow qualified pool and disciplined undercutting.

1) Four date pushes stretch DCS bid window to 17 October in BPCL Bina Petchem & Refinery Expansion
8BPCL and EIL have extended the BPREP DCS bid deadline four times, now landing on 17 October. The package spans 47,000 I/Os across DCS, SIL3 ESD and F&G PLCs, compressing risk into a single control backbone. The longer runway may broaden compliant participation, but it also telegraphs integration complexity.
 
2) Bid date pushed a week for PRU instrumentation in NRL NREP Group A
8NRL and Thyssenkrupp have quietly given bidders seven extra days to lock PRU instrumentation proposals. The documents keep a hard line on PQC evidence and a sharp two-group award split to preserve competition. The commercial clarifications focus on EMD mechanics while leaving core risk-allocation clauses untouched.
 
3) NRL extends Group B instrumentation tender for NREP amid EMD clarifications and vendor queries
8Numaligarh Refinery has granted a seven-day extension for its Group B instrumentation works tender under EPCM-1. The move follows a series of addenda addressing EMD rules and digital pre-bid processes. Industry sources see this as an effort to widen competition while holding firm on technical and timeline standards.
 
4) BPCL Bina’s CDU-VDU condensers bid slides to 13 Oct after three extensions for Bina refinery
8BPCL has pushed its CDU-VDU condenser supply tender three times past the original 23 September close. Pre-bid minutes tightened interpretations on TPI, PBG and scope, but left commercial knobs largely unchanged. The extra 20 days could reshape bidder math on fabrication slots and QA contingencies.
 
5) On-premise APM with widened BEC and strict on-site milestones in GAIL Pata APM project
8GAIL’s pre-bid responses hold the line on on-prem deployment, VAPT and on-site commissioning while expanding who can qualify for ownership and foreign support. The option clause adds a moving-target element on quantities even as SAP integration and asset counts are nailed down. The result is a larger vendor pool but a tighter execution box.
 
6) NRL coalescer package date extended by 14 days, delivery and securities unchanged
8NRL has pushed the bid submission to 13 October 2025 and aligned technical opening to 14 October. The scope, delivery at 10 months DAP, and CPS/WBG framework remain intact. The shift looks administrative, but the NDA-gated, limited tender context suggests competition quality is the real objective.

1) Repeated extensions hint at bidder-pool squeeze as CPCL tightens membrane and spares obligations
8CPCL’s O&M tender for ETP-IV and DMRO at Manali has rolled through four extensions even as it sharpened obligations on membranes, automation AMCs and major spares. The buyer has kept RA pressure and a 25% option clause intact, pushing vendors to price flexibility and durability. Whether this mix broadens competition or concentrates it among a few capable integrators is the real test. Technically, the package spans complex, variable-quality refinery effluents and a full water-cycle (UF/RO/MB) with MINAS compliance — a reliability-driven scope where membrane health and automation uptime define success.
 
2) BPCL Bina pumps tender gets two deadline pushes without changing zero-deviation or delivery clock
8EIL has nudged the bid window for BPCL’s horizontal SPP pump package twice, now pointing to 09-10-2025. The extensions arrived without visible shifts to evaluation, delivery, or EMD architecture. That combination can widen participation while keeping the tender’s compliance screws tight.
 
3) Date extension sharpens compliance, but delivery ambiguity lingers over IOCL Mathura CCRU catalyst
8IOCL has pushed the CCRU catalyst bid date without changing any terms. The move buys bidders time to align platinum funding and Integrity Pact formalities. But a two-versus-four-month delivery signal still needs a precedence-driven fix to protect the charging window.
 
4) Pumps package: Bid window pushed by a week but zero-deviation and groupwise controls hold
8BPCL and EIL have extended the bid due date for the vertical centrifugal pumps package by seven days without softening compliance. The enquiry remains on a zero-deviation, group-wise evaluation track with EMD waived but tougher post-award sureties. Delivery and validity timelines stay firm, pointing to schedule discipline rather than dilution.
 
5) EIL extends bid date by six days for Odisha SV/IP balance civil package in NRL pipeline
8The Part B balance-works tender at four Odisha SV/IP stations has been pushed out by six days. EIL keeps its zero-deviation and percentage-BoQ regime intact, with an SP-2 GST fallback to protect evaluation. The shift looks tactical rather than structural — but it tightens the margin game around a Rs 7.98 crore benchmark.
 
6) Bid window extended by 7 days for CS pressure vessels for BPCL Bina Petchem
8EIL has pushed the bid due date for the BPREP carbon-steel pressure vessel package by one week. Nothing else in the zero-deviation, limited-vendor tender has moved. The extra time may widen compliant participation but leaves the risk posture untouched.

Material handling works-2 locks in logistics discipline under a uniform percentage -over-SOR model at Dahej PP plant
8A limited, two-part e-bid with a three-month validity has drawn three handlers into PLL’s PDH-PP logistics frame. The owner keeps evaluation tight with a pre-filled SOR and strict EMD/CPBG rules. Delivery risk shifts to bidders through manpower/MHE availability and cradle-to-yard documentation.
