1) IOCL R&D shortlists two bidders for commercialising proprietary CO?-capture sorbent technologies 8IOCL’s R&D division has opened the technical bids for its CO?-capture sorbent commercialisation EOI. Only two bidders Balief Corporation and Psichem Biotech have entered the field, reflecting a specialised vendor pool. The high-bar PQC now becomes the pivot for deciding who advances to commercial-stage discussions.
2) BPCL Bina narrows field to two vendors for ATF reactor charcoal job 8BPCL’s technical evaluation has left only two bidders in contention for the ATF reactor charcoal replacement contract. Three participants were ruled out at the qualification stage.
1) Bio Petro Clean wins IOCL Mathura ETP consultancy 8IOCL has awarded the Mathura Refinery ETP consultancy after a narrow two-vendor technical qualification. The winning bid came in materially below the second-ranked bidder, reflecting a moderately competitive spread. The scope now moves into a compressed three-month optimisation cycle with strict reporting and shock-load guarantees. Click on Details for moreDetails
1) Bid deadline for HF and CT mega-package shifted to 4 December for ONGC Rajahmundry and CBM assets 8ONGC has quietly pushed back the closing of its two-year HF and CT tender for Rajahmundry and CBM assets to 4 December. 8The 17-day extension leaves a demanding SOW, heavy securities and strict documentation load completely untouched. 8What looks like a minor calendar tweak may in fact reveal how ONGC is balancing vendor depth, HPHT risk and GeM’s procedural limits.
2) Four-rig onshore charter bid date pushed to 15 December 8ONGC has quietly shifted the four-rig charter’s bid clock from 1 December to 15 December without loosening a single technical screw. 8Behind the two-week extension sits a tender that demands OEM-certified BOPs, fail-safe braking on all rigs and 1100 HP pumps for Ahmedabad. 8Whether the market can field enough compliant rigs on this new timeline will decide if ONGC’s tougher onshore standards become the new normal.
3) Digital-transformation SI empanelment pushed to 30 December under ONGC Project DOT and enterprise platforms 8ONGC has quietly moved its flagship digital-transformation SI empanelment to a 30 December closing without touching the underlying BEC or scope. 8Behind that simple date change sit new templates for key-personnel evidence and harder edges on parent-support and insolvency filters. 8Whether global SIs accept this heavier documentation and liability load will decide how much competition ONGC really has when it starts issuing limited tenders.
4) Oil India stretches Cuttack 200 TPD CBG EPCOM bid to 11 December after multiple PQC and safety-clause tweaks 8Oil India has pushed its flagship 200 TPD Cuttack MSW-CBG EPCOM tender out to 11 December 2025, marking at least the fifth bid-date reset. 8Behind the new deadline sit quieter but sharper moves: PQC bars cut, O&M tenure halved, safety-permit micro-clauses deleted and EMD validity recalibrated. 8Whether this recalibration finally unlocks a competitive, bankable bidder set will only be clear when the technical covers are opened.
1) RTU relocation from Trombay to NTP-2 wrapped in a 120-day offshore puzzle 8ONGC Mumbai B & S Asset is asking a single indigenous integrator to dismantle, retrofit and offshore-install a critical RTU panel across three sites in just 120 days. 8The job combines constrained lifting at NTP-2, ABB-linked commissioning and a full bundle of HSE and labour-law obligations, but no EMD. 8Whether mid-tier SCADA contractors can absorb this offshore-grade risk profile while keeping RTU availability high will decide how ONGC shapes future control-system migrations.
2) Three-year rig-HVAC AMC puts PCR cooling risk on a single vendor in ONGC Ankleshwar Asset drilling-rig AC contract 8ONGC Ankleshwar Asset is turning the entire PCR and VFD house cooling load of three drilling rigs and a workover unit into a quantified three-year AMC. 8Every compressor swap, refrigerant top-up and control-panel move has been pre-counted and bundled into one custom GeM package. 8Whether established HVAC players see enough margin in this risk heavy, highly itemised contract will decide how competitive the field really is.
3) Post bid conference threshold slashed, bid security tail stretched in CCTV LSTK corrigendum 8ONGC’s CCTV LSTK corrigendum quietly rewrites the ground rules on bid security, post-bid engagement and force majeure. 8MSEs lose automatic EMD relief, while startups and small players gain structured tie-break preferences and a clearer appeals window. 8The net effect is a sharper filter at entry but slightly more balanced treatment once a contractor is inside the tent.
4) Bid deadline for torque turn services pushed to 12 December for ONGC RJY asset 8ONGC has quietly given its GeM torque-turn tender almost four extra weeks of breathing room. 8The bid end date now slips from mid-November to 12 December while all securities and SOW obligations remain intact. 8Behind that simple calendar tweak lies a sharper story about HP-HT vendor depth, risk appetite and how far ONGC will flex its timelines without touching its clauses.
1) EIL pushes BPREP’s mega-scale DCS tender to December after eight extensions 8EIL has extended BPCL’s flagship DCS tender for the Bina petchem expansion to mid-December after multiple deadline resets. The unusually long drift signals intense technical sizing, NDA-gated document access and strict BQC compliance pressure on bidders. What remains unclear is whether the final window will attract the competitive spread the client expects.
2) BPCL BPREP pump package pushed to 11 December after four extensions 8The cooling-water pump tender for BPCL’s Bina expansion has now slipped 62 days past its original deadline. Repeated vendor clarifications on seals, coatings, vibration monitoring and motor starting conditions appear to be driving the drag. The stakes rise as rotating-equipment ordering windows tighten for the cracker’s critical path.
3) Bid deadline for BPCL BPREP’s demountable flare package pushed to 17 December 8EIL has granted an unusually long 48-day extension for the demountable flare package under the BPCL BPREP programme. The shift gives OEMs and LSTK bidders more time to resolve deep technical issues around riser design, FFG logic, and hazardous-area instrumentation. The implications for bid competitiveness and project sequencing remain behind the paywall.
4) BPCL’s mega fittings tender sees four-stage deadline slide as EIL resets ATCs and clarifies ASME tolerances 8A month-long extension cycle has pushed BPCL’s large-diameter fittings tender into December. The shifts follow an ATC reset and a thickness-tolerance clarification that materially alters bidder risk. What it means for participation and award trajectory remains behind the paywall.
5) Bid deadline for RG condenser package extended by seven days 8EIL has extended the bid deadline for the RG condenser package under NRL’s PPU project by one week. The shift follows NDA-gated access and heavy technical documentation requirements. The implications for bidder participation and price quality remain open.
6) BPCL Kochi’s expander-revamp tender slips to 03 December after two extensions amid OEM documentation bottlenecks 8The API-612 revamp package has been pushed out twice as OEMs seek more time to assemble PTR-heavy evidence and NDA-gated technical files. The shift signals complexity around integrating a new bypass valve and revising the PRE control logic for higher PFCCU flow. What this means for competition and pricing now sits behind a tightened zero-deviation regime.
7) HPCL extends VVPL DCVG survey bid deadline to 1 December 8HPCL has shifted the VVPL DCVG survey deadline by three days, extending closure to 1 December. The specialised NACE-driven integrity package demands extensive documentation, including calibration proofs and prior cross-country pipeline survey records. The short extension hints at targeted bidder relief without disturbing downstream execution schedules.
8The pre-bid clarifications reveal an unusually hard LSTK posture in a multi-licensor coal-to-SNG configuration. Contractors are being asked to price without a final DFR, while scope deletions and OPEX-related exclusions were uniformly rejected. Several engineering gaps remain open, setting the stage for high-stakes corrigenda. Click on Details for more
