Undercut wins ONGC’s Rajahmundry environmental monitoring tender
8Bureau Veritas bagged the three-year KG-PG basin monitoring contract—edging out rivals by tight margins while outpricing the highest bidder by over 145%. Future bids may see rising margin compression.
8Although L2 was within 15% of L1, no MSE preference was triggered—signaling either procedural omission or intentional lowballing by Bureau Veritas to lock out rivals.
Rig charter deadline stretches to July: OIL posts eighth extension
8A 6-year rig hire tender first floated with a March deadline has now seen its bid due date pushed to 3 July 2025.
8Despite eight extensions, only two have cited formal document changes—raising questions on the process discipline behind a marquee upstream contract.
RTDMMA tender sees final deadline push to 26 June amid high-stakes analytics rollout
8The E-ICB tender for real-time data management on onshore and offshore rigs has been granted a last extension, with ONGC explicitly ruling out further delays.
8Bidders must now commit to a solution that spans multi-location integration with stringent uptime SLAs and scaling needs.
No reason stated for ONGC's pipeline survey tender extension till July 14
8The tender closing date for a 3-year rate contract on pre-engineering surveys and ROU acquisition has been silently extended from June 19 to July 14.
8Given the scope spans across 12+ states and requires statutory coordination, multiple pre-bid issues may still be unresolved.
No change in core scope: explosive management terms remain intact
8Despite the amendment, the detailed technical responsibilities—including licensing, escort logistics, and PESO compliance—stand unchanged.
8The tweak is administrative, but strategically vital for bidder eligibility.
Heavy-duty water logistics contract opens for three-year well ops in Assam
8A national tender calls for six operational water tankers to support workover rigs and HF jobs across Assam oilfields.
8Bidders must commit a minimum of three tankers, with deployment to be completed within 60 days of award and flexible asset scaling based on operational needs.

LPG and GSU bottlenecks in focus as ONGC sets one-year Hazira pipeline upgrade blitz
8The tender spans three critical upgrades—flare diversion, emergency cooling for IA/IG compressors, and GSU pressure relief—all to be delivered in just one year.
8The project blends low-carbon intent with operational gains, but ONGC's cost-push to contractors via design burden and LD exposure may undercut bidding enthusiasm.
Major lighting upgrade planned for key ONGC facility with nine high masts
8ONGC has floated a tender for the supply, installation, testing, and commissioning of nine high mast lighting systems—three 30-meter and six 20-meter structures—at its Uran plant, main store, and CISF barracks.
8The scope includes galvanised polygonal towers, flameproof mechanisms, and raising/lowering gear systems, suggesting a significant operational infrastructure upgrade.
Wireline and compressor O&M support contract spans 3-year term with court-protected labour caveat
8A new tender floated by a central upstream major seeks contract services to support well completion operations using wireline winches and mobile compressors.
8Notably, it mandates retention of court-protected workers, adding legal complexity to bidder staffing plans.
8With OT payments capped at 5760 hours across three years, any surge in campaign work or night jobs could force vendors into absorbing unreimbursed labour cost.
Duliajan well servicing tender mandates 30–40 km fabrication workshop radius, self-mobilisation
8A new 2-year contract calls for onsite and offsite support for well servicing and sucker rod pump units, with bidders required to maintain a fabrication workshop within a 40 km radius. 8Contractors must arrange their own transport, tools, and medical support—tightening operational autonomy requirements.
BPRL seeks high-calibre consultants for DSF-IV and OALP-X bid vetting with 20+ years’ experience
8A short-duration but high-impact contract invites geoscientists, reservoir engineers, and facility experts to vet field clusters under current bidding rounds.
8Each expert is expected to bring over two decades of experience to review in-place volumes, develop conceptual FDPs, and estimate full-field CAPEX and OPEX.
8With a 20-year minimum experience bar but only 15 days of engagement, BPRL’s expert hiring model may paradoxically limit senior participation.

Integrated fertilizer hub takes shape: SSP, DAP, and acid plants planned in Maharashtra
8Madhya Bharat Agro Products Ltd has confirmed the establishment of a 1000 TPD SSP/GSSP unit alongside an integrated DAP/NPK facility—complete with phosphoric and sulphuric acid plants—at Nardana, Dhule. The move marks a major backward integration step and reinforces MBAPL’s long-term play in the fertilizer manufacturing value chain.

Global vendors say unannounced inspections don’t work—PNGRB urged to rethink enforcement for imported proprietary equipment.
8Several high-end manufacturers refuse third-party access—industry asks for IRN-based approvals instead of rigid TPI mandates.
8Then again, Mandating Positive Material Identification on all critical non-carbon steel valves faces resistance—operators want flexibility.
8Safety standards for Emergency Shutdown Valves come under scanner—industry seeks clarity on ‘explosion-proof’ requirements.
8Entities seek clarity on IEC standards for signal cables and question the continuing use of outdated galvanized iron enclosures.
8Board agrees to include India’s emerging carbon market in safety regulations—adding “as may be applicable” for long-term adaptability.

Bidder cashflow strains mount as BPCL’s mounded bullet package hardens on scope and payment terms
8Despite extended deadlines, BPCL and EIL have resisted contractor pleas for land, utilities, and staggered payment relief in the BPREP bullet package, pushing cashflow and risk burdens squarely onto bidders.
8The shift reflects a tightening approach across PSU-led petrochemical expansions.
8Also no land, no power as BPCL denies fabrication yard support in Bina bullet package
Repeated extensions in NRL’s methyl amine EOI raise questions on global licensor interest
8With the bid submission deadline pushed thrice—now extended till July 2—NRL's search for a global methyl amine technology partner signals either tepid interest or highly selective licensor readiness. A closer look reveals what’s at stake.
8With Di-Methyl Amine output pegged at minimum 12 KTPA, licensors may be recalibrating tech promises before committing commercially.
8Absence of FORM-4-based public clarifications hinders insight into global licensor concerns—has EIL lost a chance to course correct early?
IOCL’s market advisory tender: Favours price over insight?
8The limited tender for high-stakes valuation and transaction advisory work gives IOCL post-award scope revision freedom, raising exposure for consultants. Pre-bid clarifications are now live with a short four-day extension granted.
8Bringing reverse auctions into high-end advisory contracts marks a shift that could skew outcomes in favor of price over insight.
Limited NDA-gated electric heater tender signals high control ethos in Petronet's PDH-PP rollout
8Only three specialized players made it past the prequalification firewall for Petronet’s heater package—underscoring how Honeywell UOP’s proprietary process architecture is shaping procurement contours at Dahej.
8Even though it's labeled “limited-global”, only vendors with direct email invitations could participate—raising fairness concerns.
Bid battle down to decimals: Kalpana wins by 0.47% margin

8Sulzer swept all 4 packages with identical Rs. 40.08 lakh bids, exposing either a lopsided qualification regime or waning OEM interest.

Tight leash on bidders: EIL’s exchanger tender for PDH unit pushes high-risk payment, strict NDA filters

8Vendors face cashflow and timeline pressures with no price variation cushion.
Rotor, relay, and risk: Nitrogen package tightens screws on EPC bidders
8From spares inclusion to CPBG interest penalties, BPCL’s Bina Petchem tender sets a new bar for financial and engineering compliance, even as bid extensions hint at industry unease.
8Contractor’s request to use 110V UPS over 240V shot down; no deviation entertained, even for cost-saving design.
8Clarifications reinforce dual PCC feeder expectations, complicating electrical panel sizing and cost estimation.
8Contractor’s alternate HT feeder routing from SS-109 refused, despite voltage drop concerns—execution risks loom.
8Despite bidder’s claim that SAS is outside scope, client response directs them to datasheet—confusion persists.
PFO flexibility raises emission bar but sidesteps enforcement gaps in Bina steam boiler EPC
8BPCL’s third technical amendment introduces conditional leeway for PFO-heavy firing blends, but still avoids requiring emission control retrofits — exposing a regulatory grey zone that hands cost advantage to contractors.
8The amendment eases operational limits while raising questions on real-world enforcement.
8Revised commercial amendment reaffirms ultra-low turndown guarantees for gaseous fuels at 20% MCR, requiring high fidelity steam purity at all loads — a technical demand few vendors may easily meet.
8Loading penalties apply for excess fuel consumption beyond 15.68 TPH of RLNG, but no bonus for exceeding performance — a one-way clause that favors the client.
8The deletion of a previous clause that explicitly prohibited emission controls for PFO firing subtly clears room for workaround strategies — but stops short of mandating them.
BPCL tightens contractor compliance: CPBG delays now attract interest penalty in Bina Ethylene Double Wall Storage Tank tender
8A new clause in BPCL’s mega ethylene tank tender shifts the risk needle — bidders must furnish CPBG within 45 days or face interest charges.
8RA bill deductions are no longer a fallback, signaling a stricter post-award posture.
8The June 23 extension follows four earlier ones, suggesting bidder hesitation — but no softening on security or performance obligations.
Repeated deadline extensions flag execution concerns in BPCL's Bina LLDPE/HDPE swing unit bid
8With four successive deadline shifts and tightened insurance and staffing clauses, BPCL's flagship polymer swing unit tender shows signs of mounting bid complexity. Revised documents point to higher risk allocation on contractors.
8With McKinsey, KBC, Univation, EIL, and Toyo named as consultants, BPCL maintains full exclusion—some firms boxed out.

Vedanta’s upstream operations clocked 103 kboepd in FY25—down from 127.5 kboepd last year. It’s the biggest annual drop in a decade, masked by early-stage optimism around new discoveries.
8Even 28 infill wells and ASP injections couldn’t stem the fall at Barmer. Gross production dropped sharply across Rajasthan, with legacy blocks no longer holding the line.
8Cambay’s decline—from 8.9 to 5.1 kboepd—outpaces even Barmer, putting a question mark on its recovery strategy and cost viability.
8While early production has begun from OALP blocks like Jaya and new reserves added at Rudra-1, total contribution rose by just 2.4 kboepd—nowhere near compensating for the Rajasthan slide. Details

No room for deviation: IOCL’s Haldia effluent impact study bid rides on tight 4-month clock
8A low-value yet high-stakes EIL tender calls for zero deviation compliance, barring pre-bid clarifications and tightening NIC registration timelines. River discharge sampling oversight emerges as an unstated risk in IOCL’s latest ESG drive.
No EMD, Single-Bid Format: BCPL pressure vessel tender leans pro-vendor
8A four-month supply window, absence of bid security, and simplified single-bid format collectively signal BCPL’s bid to fast-track procurement—though risks of underqualified entries remain.

Corrigenda avalanche hits CPCL hydrogen tender
8With over 20 corrigenda issued, CPCL’s 2-KTA GHGU tender appears stuck in a vortex of technical clarifications, shifting risks, and bidder hesitation.

8Multiple bidders have expressed concerns over off-take certainty, effluent load specs, and clarity on O&M scope under BOO.
Five extensions, one crackdown: MRPL pump tender tightens cartel clause, but stays mum on specs

8Prior PBQRs flagged critical data gaps but EIL’s silence leaves vendors to guess under threat of disqualification.

Compliance traps in seismic bid: Too much ambiguity
8From annexure confusion to capped liabilities, the bid process triggered multiple queries that revealed documentation gaps and evaluation ambiguities.
8As a result three out of five bidders failed to qualify.
8TNG and others were hit by misnumbered annexures. A late corrigendum fixed labels, but not before at least one bidder likely submitted against incorrect formats—raising procedural fairness questions.
8Absolute Imaging sought clarity on how 100 technical marks would be split—OIL offered none. Without evaluation rubrics, bidders face unpredictable scoring during presentations.
8Those who passed likely did so by aligning documentation perfectly despite ambiguities.
8For others, unclear answers became silent disqualifiers.
Adjoining zone clause may corner contractors into unknown terrain
8A corrigendum follows a familiar trend: scope pressure surfaces during pre-bid, prompting a reactive expansion under original pricing envelope.
Retention cut from 10% to 5% amid liquidity pressure

96 well drilling programme by OIL: Silly ambiguities cleared
8Multiple PMLs across Dibrugarh and Charaideo districts now fall under a unified proposal before the EAC, signalling accelerated multi-block exploration efforts
8Ironically though, the environment authorities replaced offshore-specific terms with onshore standards (why should they have creeped up in an onland development programme is anyone’s guess), allowing Assam’s 96-well development campaign to proceed without classification ambiguity
EAC agrees to well location shift for private Gujarat drilling project

OIL’s pressure safety valves tender fixes 5-day deadline, squeezes contractor margin
8With just five days to test, certify, and reinstall each batch, bidders must scale logistics precisely or risk penalties. The timeline is tighter than industry norms for valve calibration.
8Contractors must generate a spares list after calibration—but have no mandate to supply or install them. This bifurcation could prolong system downtime
8OIL restricts contractor to removing only 5 PSVs/TSVs at a time, a logistical bottleneck when servicing 200 valves in two years. Bidders face increased overheads per trip.
SunPetro’s mirror contracts: Offshore dive vs. onshore drive
8Both tenders look alike on paper—but one dives into the sea with ROVs and NDT divers, while the other digs into five years of wellhead maintenance.
8A reminder that standardized contracts still need asset-specific thinking.
Bid window for complex RSS-MWD-LWD tender widened by over 3 weeks
8The extension buys time for global vendors to configure multi-party proposals.
8High integration and interface risks may have slowed initial interest.
8While technical clauses remain untouched, the extension points to bidders needing more time to stitch together compliant multi-service alliances.
8Logistics-heavy deployment in Assam’s hilly blocks and bundled tool demands could be deterring shallow-prepped bidders.
8The integration of multiple downhole services under one umbrella remains a tendering challenge in India’s onshore terrain.
Rig tender: No relaxation for startups or MSEs despite aggressive Make in India push
8OIL maintains strict entry norms, shutting out startups and MSMEs even for services.
8With high-end rig specs and no turnover leniency, field remains tilted to seasoned players.
Drilling tender for Sadiya block delayed by 7 months amid bidder readiness gaps
8The bid submission deadline has now moved from as far back as 10 December 2024 to 15 July 2025—a rare extension of over 200 days that hints at structural or market-side bottlenecks in contractor mobilization.
8The fully integrated nature of the contract—drilling, manpower, equipment—may have filtered out niche or partial-service players, limiting competition and causing schedule slippage.
First-mover EOI on UBD gets more time amid consultant hesitation
8Oil India’s push to explore underbalanced drilling sees its first timeline shift.
8Clearly technical proposal demands may be limiting the pool of qualified global bidders.
8This is the first formal exploration of underbalanced drilling by a major upstream PSU.

Delayed VOC package tender for MRPL clouds contractor clarity amid design and site ambiguities
8Despite two deadline extensions, critical clarifications around civil scope, hazardous zoning compliance, and interface responsibilities remain partially addressed.

8Multiple instrumentation requirements refer to job specs not provided upfront, pushing risk and cost estimation to post-award stage.
Does EIL wins IOCL’s furnace BDEP job with 34% edge over rival; margin hints at aggressive IP leverage?
8Engineers India Limited undercut Enereff Engineers by over 34% to bag IOCL Guwahati’s furnace BDEP contract.
8The sharp price gap suggests IP reuse and margin compression are reshaping engineering consultancy bids.
8No bidder was disqualified, yet the substantial bid spread indicates divergent cost assumptions or execution strategies.

M&A advisor hunt: Whoever makes it though is in for a lot of deals
8A midstream correction to evaluation rules and a last-minute deadline extension suggest an attempt to attract top-tier transaction advisors for high-stakes deals, but the stringent IBBI filter may deter global boutiques.
8The amended bid dilute the advantage of lean firms with fewer dealmakers; clear thresholds now sharply benefit firms with 30+ experienced M&A staff.
Fifth deadline shift in this DM–CPU tender signals bidder unease over scope complexity
8The latest extension to 23 June reflects persistent hesitation among bidders, possibly driven by design interface issues and unclear execution liabilities.
8The owner may need to issue a clarificatory addendum to preserve competition.
8Despite routine scope, the DM and CPU combo appears to have triggered technical doubts and risk hesitancy among EPC players.
8Multiple EPCs likely raised demarcation and responsibility-sharing concerns which remain unclarified to date.
Fire scope left vague, CP distances undefined: BPCL’s Bina bullet tender leaves bidders seeking clarity
8Despite extensive pre-bid clarifications, key utility interfaces like fire water distribution and cathodic protection power distances remain ambiguous.
8This may impact bidder risk premiums and design conservatism.
BPCL’s Bina Petchem column tender tightens specs, bidders get more time but not more clarity
8Despite high-entry barriers and stringent ASME and cladding requirements, BPCL extends bid dates twice without addressing core bidder concerns.
8Cost, qualification, and verification burdens shift heavily to contractors — a trend worth watching.
8With demands of diameter, metallurgy and tray experience across separate vessels, few shops may qualify — filtering out even seasoned midsize players.
8Then again, disallowing unincorporated JVs shuts out collaborative bids between small ASME shops and tech-rich partners, reducing competition further.
Technical amendments tighten risk and cost load on contractors in COT Vadinar tender
8The first technical and commercial amendments in BPCL’s COT Vadinar composite tender subtly shift liabilities and reject key contractor asks on risk, cashflow, and scope clarity—raising early flags for EPC players ahead of June 26.
8The VDU heater revamp quietly dropped and the cope narrows without cost revision. In fact that the structural data for a critical unit has been deleted without downstream explanation, raising questions on execution sequence and package separation.

Compressor retender hints at spec realignment in PDH-PP project
8The revised MR (Rev.?1) in the latest bid round suggests Petronet LNG and EIL have fine-tuned technical benchmarks—likely in response to earlier bidder concerns or evolving project design inputs.

Water infra for hydrogen: Tender demands 25-year lifecycle via EPC+O&M
8The tender for a 10 MLD treatment system linked to a green hydrogen complex requires EPC execution and 10-year O&M under lifecycle standards, including high-purity DM and WHO-grade potable water output. The project is structured for full functionality over 25 years.
8The design mandates 1 MLD DM water each through RO–Mixed Bed and RO–EDI pathways, with 3×50% redundancy. Such dual-path DM treatment is tailored to feed electrolyzers in the hydrogen hub and ensures water quality optimization under varying operational loads.
8Though the treatment output is capped at 10 MLD, the intake system is sized for 20 MLD—an early indicator of planned scale-up in green hydrogen production. Future doubling of capacity may be achieved with minimal interface alteration.

Fourth bid extension points to lingering bidder hesitancy in double walled ethylene storage tank tender
8A sliding bid calendar suggests ongoing bidder preparation delays or misalignment with technical terms in this high-risk cryogenic EPC package.
8With commercial clauses revised and limited pre-bid replies addressing only a subset of concerns, bidders are left to interpret several key rationale points—raising concerns over partial transparency.
8At Rs 10 crore (or USD 1.16 million), the bid bond is steep. Smaller international EPCs may balk, limiting the competitive pool.
Experience barrier lowered for RPIP consultancy: NRL blinks just a little
8The company reduces experience threshold for Lead Partner from 15 to 12 years for scoring marks — but still falls short of the broader relaxations bidders had pushed for.

3D Model Axed from PMC Scope in HPCL's Sugauli Biogas Tender
8In a structural pivot, HPCL has shifted all 3D modeling responsibilities to the LEPCC vendor, reducing PMC control but raising liability through mandatory oversight of vendor-developed designs.
8Query patterns reveal structural confusion—scope of LEPCC vs PMC is still evolving, potentially inviting dispute post-award.
LEPCC package dominates PMC Stage-I payout matrix, raising bid strategy flags
8Stage-I milestone payments now backloaded toward LEPCC tender drafting and evaluation—diverting 65% of PMC payouts to a single tender-related deliverable.
8With 3D scope offloaded to LEPCC, consultants are nudged into a reviewer role rather than an engineering anchor.
Stage-wise payments reshuffled in HPCL’s biogas PMC tender; contractor risks rise in revised model
8HPCL has revised milestone-linked payouts for PMC work in its compressed biogas plant tender.
8The new structure front-loads responsibilities while squeezing terminal-stage payouts — a shift that tilts risk towards consultants.
Scope splits, 3D model handoff, and LEPCC control: HPCL alters PMC brief midstream
8A post-query reshuffle has shifted key design and execution responsibilities away from the PMC and into LEPCC hands, particularly 3D modelling and tender scoping. Payment terms and sequencing now skew earlier deliverables toward timeline-sensitive approvals.

Full-scope QA oversight mandated for offshore E&P
8TPI agencies are expected to conduct 100% inspection and witness activities across fabrication, load-out, and offshore hook-up phases.
8The scope spans platforms, pipelines, cable laying, and post-commissioning, signaling ONGC’s tight grip on quality assurance.
8Every bid now requires inspection agencies to independently review adequacy of marine spreads—an area traditionally assessed by contractors. This shift reflects a growing push to derisk installation timelines during monsoon-sensitive campaigns.
8Detailed coating supervision—including surface prep, preheat checks, and peel tests—has been made integral to all pipeline and clamp-on packages. This underlines ONGC’s intent to minimize offshore rework risk due to faulty protection layers.
8Unlike legacy inspection contracts, the new mandate pushes TPI agencies to verify liquidation of punch points across all platform types. This blurs traditional roles of owners, contractors, and inspectors in final commissioning stages.
8Even basic layout compliance for trays, lighting, and paging systems must now be reviewed by TPI agencies. The move targets layout quality—often a casualty in cost-focused brownfield retrofit projects.
Instrumentation calibration contracts shrink to six-month cycle in ONGC’s Mehsana asset
8In a shift from longer calibration tenures, the current scope demands six-month contractual coverage, pushing vendors to recalibrate cost models, manpower allocation, and logistics for a compressed operational window.
Single-vendor integrated model floated for Capillary-Based Hydraulic Pumping operations
8Unlike past models split by component or region, the tender consolidates supply, operation, and maintenance into a single-vendor contract—pushing accountability and performance linkage higher.
8In a departure from earlier practices, wellhead modification responsibility now rests with the O&M vendor. This shifts site integration risk to the contractor—potentially complicating pricing and liability estimates.
8The vendor must handle both downhole and surface CBHP systems—demanding experience across chemical capillary systems, pressure control, and well-site integration. This dual-skill expectation filters serious bidders.
ONGC scouts turnkey EPS operator for Jaisalmer marginal fields

It is a fraud instituted at the behest of deep-pocketed companies
And India risks reputational damage and procurement exclusion.
And that is so is being singled out by everyone
8A green badge for brown steel?
India’s new taxonomy caps emissions at 2.2 tCO? per tonne of finished steel—high enough to include some of the most carbon-intensive producers globally. It’s not a leap forward, it’s a rebranding.
8When low ambition becomes national policy
While global buyers demand cradle-to-gate carbon data, India’s “green” steel could still pollute at levels seen in aging blast furnace setups.
8A missed opportunity to lead
Instead of aligning with global decarbonization trajectories, India has chosen the path of least resistance—creating a domestic comfort zone that may stifle global competitiveness.
8Star-rated but stranded
The government’s 3- to 5-star classification system gives every steelmaker a shot at being “green”—but in global markets, even 5-star Indian steel may not qualify for procurement in public projects.
8A climate shield or a trade barrier?
By setting a high emissions threshold and ignoring full-scope lifecycle emissions, India’s green steel definition may eventually clash with CBAM-style import restrictions abroad.
8More branding, less carbon-cutting
There’s no mandate for lifecycle assessments, minimal scope 3 accounting, and limited verification. In its current form, India’s green steel tag is more about optics than impact.
8Green by decree, not by data
Unlike ResponsibleSteel or GSCC, India’s standard does not yet require independent third-party audits or full EPD disclosure—raising questions about the credibility of the certification itself.

PNGRB’s new LNG terminal regulations may look like reform, but industry insiders see a different picture—one where opaque approvals, performance bonds, and mandatory disclosures could act as covert deterrents to new entrants, ultimately shielding existing operators from fresh competition.

IOCL locks CRZ risk on single consultant for NAOB Rambili hydrocarbon hub: Dangerous precedent?
8In a no-contest single-tender, IOCL hands the entire compliance burden—including public hearing representation and CRZ documentation to this consultancy, under a tight 30-day schedule and fixed fee model.
8The point to note is that if this model succeeds, more IOCL environmental approvals may be routed via the contractor, reshaping the role of independent NABET firms in CRZ-heavy projects.

8Was it a bid glitch or a deliberate pricing play?

Full house: All eight desalter bidders technically qualify for Bina refinery package
8BPCL’s high-stakes desalter tender saw 100% technical clearance with all eight bidders qualifying, suggesting strong vendor familiarity with electrostatic desalter specs and EIL’s evaluation rigour.
8Bid specs demand vendors meet outlet salt, BS&W, and OIW limits under two distinct feed cases—705 m³/hr at API 33.8 and 747 m³/hr at API 42—raising design complexity for universal compliance.
8EIL has retained tough output limits of 0.5 ptb for salt and 0.2 vol% for BS&W, despite industry feedback on varying feed conditions and wash water temperature dependencies.
8A technical amendment revised material specs, mandating SS410S for non-proprietary internals while allowing SS405 for piping, balancing corrosion resistance with cost rationalization.

Third deadline extension flags bidder strain in EIL’s electric heater tender for Dahej PDH-PP
8Multiple bid extensions in the EIL electric heater tender for the PDH-PP project at Dahej highlight vendor struggles — from NDA access delays to documentation bottlenecks under tight UOP technology protocols.
8EIL’s firm insistence on zero deviations contrasts with three successive deadline extensions — a sign that procedural rigidity met real-world compliance friction.
8With process tech governed by UOP, even minor design access needed tight licensing clearance — adding unseen layers to a supposedly limited-scope heater package.
Centrifugal pumps for bio-ATF plant: Bidder unease over abrasive specs and vague fluid data
8Three extensions hint at hesitation over solids-heavy pump duties and incomplete upstream information.
8Pump rated flow of 9.52 m³/hr proposed by vendor was dismissed, with EIL insisting on base spec of 4+MCF, reinforcing strict adherence to design basis.
8Despite pump model dependency, EIL has deferred crucial particle size and density data until post-award, shifting design liability to vendors.
8Repeated queries on operating pressure/temperature for CW and N? utilities remain unanswered, leaving design scope partially open-ended.
8Despite confirming API-610 rules, EIL’s silence on full acceptability of non-metallic impeller wear rings opens room for post-bid disputes.
Strict NDA bottleneck delays document access in IOCL’s Paradip polypropylene expansion EPCC tender
8Only Stage-1 qualified bidders are eligible, but even they face gated access to bidding documents unless they clear a rigid NDA protocol.
8The dual-layered secrecy clause involving IOCL and Basell could delay bid readiness and deter aggressive quoting.
8While IOCL ruled out reverse auction, power and steam consumption guarantees and loading clauses tilt risk toward bidders.
8The use of Spheripol process and associated catalyst technology attracts high control, possibly limiting newcomer participation.
EIL holds firm on non-negotiable fitting specs as BPCL’s Bina tender sparks bidder pushback

CPCL green hydrogen tender extended: It is riddled with risk shifts, cost shocks, and legal blind spots
8From utility black-holes and reverse auctions to assignment bans and unclear payment formulas, CPCL’s multi-stage clarifications heap cost, risk, and financing burdens on bidders—threatening bankability and timeline integrity.
8By forcing bidders to arrange water, power, and roads, CPCL offloads crores of rupees in site-prep costs, and small EPC houses warn of budget blowouts.
8In a departure from typical BOO deals, CPCL’s insistence on reverse auction pricing leaves banks uneasy over razor-thin margins.

8Is this commercial risk deferral or persistent technical misalignment?
8Despite multiple clarification rounds, bidders’ concerns around interfacing responsibilities, EM power specs, and cabling have not been closed, injecting interpretative risk.
8IOCL’s amendments haven’t addressed key financial comfort factors like validity extension or EMD clarification—leaving contractors exposed to liquidity risk.
8The pattern of pushing tender deadlines without corresponding scope freeze hints at a larger issue—either internal project uncertainties or an evolving negotiation strategy with select contractors.
PLL Hydrogen Tender Sees Repeated Extensions: Is the UOP template a problem?
8Petronet LNG’s PSA hydrogen package has seen three bid extensions, hinting at vendor hesitation likely triggered by aggressive financial qualification norms and restrictive UOP technology clauses.
8Is the UOP template deterring competition?
8Restricting LOC declarations to a single bank may choke out several capable but mid-sized players — a clear shift toward low-risk but low-competition bidding.
8UOP’s process control extends well into Indian contractor operations, triggering unease over data segregation and document handling.
8Subtle US-origin technology restrictions in NDA may be an impediment
PLL’s AS/RS tender undergoes recalibration: Pallet specs relaxed, but integration and fire norms tighten
8Amendments to Petronet’s Dahej warehouse automation tender reveal softened rack specs but stricter integration and safety enforcement.

8Despite repeated queries, PLL has not revealed ERP architecture specifics — forcing bidders to rely on assumptions for critical interface planning.

PNGRB's has just released an ambitious up to 2030 and then going on to 2040 gas demand report.

 Here is our take is:
 8CGD to Dominate India’s Gas Future — But Is the Backbone in Place?
 PNGRB Claim: CGD will be the largest driver of gas demand by 2040 — accounting for up to 270 mmscmd.
 Our View: Nearly a third of GAs still lack pipeline connectivity. Without aggressive execution, this demand surge may not materialize.

 PNGRB Claim: India will have 5 lakh LNG trucks and 1000 fueling stations by 2040.
 Our View: From just 700 trucks and 20 stations today, the scale-up needs deep OEM, policy, and pricing alignment — none of which currently exist.
 
8Refineries & Petchem to Double Gas Use — But Will Naptha Still Win?
 PNGRB Claim: Gas demand from this sector will grow from 22 to nearly 60 mmscmd by 2040.
 Our View: Gas will only be viable if it stays cheaper than naphtha and fuel oil — something long-term price trends can’t guarantee.
 
8Fertiliser Growth Steady — But Import Substitution Still Unreliable
 PNGRB Claim: Fertiliser gas demand will remain stable, protected by subsidies and plant expansions.
 Our View: Plant-level outages, pipeline gaps, and policy shifts could undercut this stability — import substitution remains a fragile hope.
 
8Power Sector to Support Peak Demand — But High Cost Still a Drag
 PNGRB Claim: Gas-fired power demand will more than double by 2040, driven by peaking needs.
 Our View: At over Rs 6/unit, gas power is too costly unless peaking markets or capacity payments emerge to justify its role.
 
8I&C Sector Seen as Gas Growth Dark Horse — But Pricing Volatility Looms
 PNGRB Claim: Gas demand from SMEs and commercial units will grow 2–3x as they switch from FO, LPG, and diesel.
 Our View: These consumers are highly price-sensitive — any global LNG volatility or tax fluctuation could swing them back to liquid fuels.
 
8Steel’s Shift to Gas Hinges on Green Mandates, Not Market Forces
 PNGRB Claim: Gas-based DRI will gain traction as green steel gains importance.
 Our View: Without carbon pricing or compliance mandates, coal-based sponge iron will remain dominant due to lower cost.
 
8North-East Grid Expansion Is Promised — But Completion Remains Patchy
 PNGRB Claim: Projects like NEGG will unlock industrial demand in the North-East.
 Our View: NEGG is just 12% complete. Without faster execution, regional demand will lag for years.
 
8CBG Ambitions Are High — But Execution Rates Are Embarrassingly Low
 PNGRB Claim: 5000 plants and 5% CBG blending with CNG/PNG by FY29.
 Our View: Only ~120 plants are operational. Logistics, financing, and connectivity challenges remain unresolved.
 
8The Entire Projection Leans on LNG Below $9/MMBtu — A Global Gamble
 PNGRB Claim: CGD and LNG trucking demand hinge on steady, affordable LNG under $9.
 Our View: This assumption is risky — supply shocks or price spikes could derail India’s entire gas transition roadmap.

Kharsang’s 40-well clearance signals long-term oil uplift
8While only two wells are producing, HOEC has clearance for 40 development and 3 exploration wells in Arunachal—setting up a multi-year drilling campaign with potential reservoir upside.
B-15 could be HOEC’s dark horse in offshore gas
8Newly acquired and 100% owned, B-15 comes with two ONGC discoveries and complete seismic data. Shallow waters mean lower capex, and a production start is targeted within 30 months.
PY-1 gas gets a 2x price bump as HOEC signs new term sheet
8The old US dollar 3.66 per mmbtu price is gone. A fresh term sheet with GAIL offers US dollar 6.75 on gross calorific value—pending a green light from PetroVietnam by June-end.
390,000 barrels in storage, and HOEC isn’t in a hurry to sell
8With crude prices underwhelming, HOEC is holding back nearly 400,000 barrels from B-80—waiting for the US dollar 75 mark. With capacity to store 900,000 barrels, the clock isn’t ticking yet.
Dirok’s forest pipeline nears finish line—gas grid could flip the field
8The 15-km stretch through forest terrain is done. Once the North-East Gas Grid links up in FY26, Dirok’s latent capacity—up to 55 mmscfd—can finally find buyers across India.
B-80 workovers to halt production for a month, but more oil may follow
8HOEC is planning tubing replacements and zone shifts in B-80’s two offshore wells. A 30-day pause is expected, but the target is higher, more stable flow post-restart.
HOEC rewrites B-80 revenue model to ensure survival
8The company has scrapped day-rate infra charges in favor of per-barrel pricing—keeping its FPSO, MOPU, and SPM alive during low production. It’s about sustaining the ecosystem, not padding topline.
HOEC quietly imposes debt ceiling tied to market cap
8Even as drilling and infra work picks up, HOEC says it won’t borrow more than 10% of its market value. That caps future debt around Rs 200–250 crore, adding a fiscal discipline layer.
HOEC holds 21% in PY-3 but gets nothing—arbitration may change that
8ONGC resumed production from PY-3, but HOEC, despite its 21% stake, isn’t getting returns. A legal battle is underway—and a favorable ruling could bring retroactive payouts.
One-time gains cushion Q4 profit as volumes stay weak
8Rs 46 crore in unpaid interest from AEPL and Rs 76 crore in other income bolstered HOEC’s bottom line this quarter. But it’s not from operations—production remains subdued.

Fifth deadline push in BPCL Bina ETP bid raises planning red flags
8With four successive bid extensions and unresolved technical ambiguities, the ETP tender under BPCL’s Bina expansion now signals planning instability, raising execution and sizing risks for bidders.
8TSS now floated at 200 mg/L, then diluted with vague ‘finalize later’ language. EPC bidders face design and costing limbo.
8Bidders flag irrelevance of Thyristor and NIFPS AMC, but EIL refuses deletions — risk pushed downstream.
8No Zone 0/1/2 mapping provided. EIL hands off classification — increasing compliance exposure.
8Bidders asked for clarity on motor efficiency class, but EIL response redirects to tender note with no explicit resolution.
8EIL insists on <20 mg/L COD without addressing recalcitrant load concerns in refinery effluent — risky assumption.
8Vendors cannot price undefined AMC scope for NIFPS or Thyristor panels. Bidding integrity suffers.
8Despite a 6000+ page tender, basics like inlet quality and motor specs are left ambiguous.
8With four prior extensions, confidence in project readiness and bid evaluation stability is now under question.
EIL’s steam package tender for BPCL triggers critical design shifts
8Key electrical and mechanical specifications in BPCL’s steam generation package tender were quietly overhauled via pre-bid replies and commercial amendments.
8With deadlines now extended, bidders face an uphill task recalibrating costs and scope.
8The exclusion of motor-driven pump reduces redundancy in steam startup strategy. Is BPCL betting on gas grid stability?
8With pre-bid clarifications adding significant scope, the third bid deadline extension offers scant room for recalibrated costing.
BPCL’s polypropylene bagging plant tender sees repeated deadline extensions: Bidders cautious?
8With bid due dates now extended to 13 June 2025, industry players are eyeing the Rs100 crore tender with hesitation.
8The tender demands turnkey automation of multiple packaging lines – from 25 kg bags to 715 kg jumbo formats – testing bidders’ integration capabilities.
8Is the complexity of automation or EMD-heavy terms slowing down submissions?
Oil mist, trip logic and pressure margins: MRPL compressor bid stirs a debate

Digital command center tender at BPCL Kochi draws top IT contenders amid intricate safety and integration demands
8Five heavyweights are in the fray for BPCL Kochi’s CDE Control Tower project.
8This isn't a regular IT tender — it's a refinery-grade digital infrastructure mandate demanding hardcoded safety, full-spectrum system integration, and post-go-live operational stability.
8The tender sees a rare mix of EPC-oriented and pure IT consultants.
HPCL’s subsea pipeline wrapping job: All three bidders clear technical scrutiny
8HPCL’s subsea pipeline wrapping job sees technical qualification of 3X Engineering, Coastal Marine, and Underwater Services, signaling a technically sound and competitive bid round.
Top-tier valve players lock horns for Usar PDH package
8With heavyweights like Velan, Leader, and Oswal in the fray, GAIL's limited tender for critical LT and cryogenic valves sees fierce competition among EIL-approved vendors.
8Long-time industry leaders now face off with agile mid-sized firms in this tightly contested procurement.
Top consultancies falter in BPCL greenbelt tender
8Big names like PwC, CII, and TUV SUD were disqualified in the technical stage
8This reveals how the tender demanded field-level biodiversity credentials, not corporate clout. 10 out of 12 bidders failed to qualify, highlighting a shift towards ecological rigor and statutory depth in public sector tenders linked to refinery operations.
8The tender’s scope included tracking endangered species, IUCN-linked risk, and carbon sequestration—a multidimensional ask that most firms couldn’t meet.

No Price Bid Yet—Empanelment-only Tender to Pre-Qualify Vibroseis Contractors
8ONGC will invite price bids only from those empaneled through this process. With no EMD or commercial offer required upfront, this is a low-barrier, high-stakes gateway for seismic players.
8The BEC mandates credible seismic work history using vibrator fleets. For multi-sector bids, the bar is even higher: 250 LKM or 50 SKM. Proof of delivery is non-negotiable.
8ONGC allows bids based on parent/sister companies' experience—but demands an extra 50% performance bank guarantee from the supporting firm. So group synergy now comes with a price
Cyclic Steam Stimulation Returns to Spotlight in ONGC’s Enhanced Recovery Drive
8ONGC pushes CSS operations using portable steam generators—pointing to renewed urgency in boosting recovery from tight, viscous reservoirs in Gujarat’s declining fields.
8Only vendors with proven high-pressure, high-temperature (HPHT) steam systems and real-world CSS experience stand a chance.
From Flare to Fuel? ONGC Looks to Repurpose Vent Gases in Ahmedabad Asset
8ONGC is scouting for solutions to store or reuse flare gas—possibly for power generation or reinjection.
8From emissions recovery to vapour reutilization, this EOI is an early building block for carbon-smart oilfield operations in India’s oldest producing basin. A sign that sustainability is moving from policy to plant floor.
GSPC Clarifies Viton FPM Requirement for Seals—No Substitutes Allowed
8The pre-bid note firmly states only Viton FPM rubber will be accepted for Chiksan loop sealing—closing the door on cheaper alternatives. Vendors must align their BOM now.
8The company demands SS 304 or SS 316 for ball races in the Chiksan swivel joints. Mild steel or carbon steel alternatives won’t pass technical evaluation.
8Despite vendor murmurs, GSPC did not dilute the API 5L Grade X65 spec for the discharge line pipe. Bidders must factor premium steel cost into their quotes.
GSPC Confirms Sale of Emulsified Crude on “As-Is” Basis—No Quality Claims Allowed
8Pre-bid clarifications confirm that buyers must lift crude in its emulsified state, with no guarantees on BS&W levels. Quality control will rest solely on the buyer.
8GSPC stops short of calling it ‘refinery-grade’. This confirms that emulsified crude will need dehydration and heating—potentially costly for small players.

NPK-TSP-GSSP Greenfield Project
8Cost: Rs. 100Cr.
8Project Event: Procurement activities remain delayed due to continued financial stability challenges. However, progress has been made with the issuance of the Request for Quotation (RFQ) for the technology license and LSTK contractor in May 2025. Considering the ongoing financial constraints, the finalization of the technology licensor and LSTK contractor has been extended to August 2025, allowing sufficient time for evaluation and economic arrangements.
SSP/GSSP/PSSP Greenfield Project
8Cost: Rs. 100Cr.
8Project Event:The release of the RFQ for the LSTK contractor has been further extended to July 2025, as internal alignment on the scope of work and final technical specifications is still ongoing. Although the project has already received environmental clearance. Details
Petronet’s PDH-PP pipe RFQ tightens eligibility: This weed out intermediaries and short-cap players.
8Only bidders with firm MoUs or in-house facilities get through; casual stockists need not apply as EIL screens for genuine technical alignment.
8Bidders can submit separate jobs for pipe supply and coating, but each parameter must be fully documented, discouraging fragmented or opaque participation.
8Even minor documentation lapses will lead to outright rejection, marking a shift toward unforgiving compliance enforcement.
8Bidders cannot supplement their PTR after bid submission unless explicitly listed—tightening historical accountability standards.
Bagging & Palletizing Tender for PDH-PP Specs hit ceiling: Challenge even for global vendors
8The spec sheet for the FFS lines pushes OEMs to deliver both speed and surgical precision — a challenge even for top-tier global vendors.
8OSHA-aligned safety fences with emergency gate interlocks, malfunction lighting, and anti-dump software create one of the most risk-averse specs in recent packaging tenders.
8Ferrous particle detection must be as low as 1.6 mm at shop conditions — vendors must prove lab-level sensitivity in factory-floor environments.
8Stretch hooding machines must handle 5- or 6-sided wrap modes, with dual-reel shafts and auto-change — even pallet size handling is expected to vary on-the-fly.
100+ item HPCL ROU scope sends bidders into a tizzy: Why is the refinery trying to do so much micro management?
8A 100+ item scope and high documentation standards suggest tighter scrutiny and end-to-end service accountability.
8This reflects a desire to micro-manage compliance Nearly 50 line-item categories rolled into a single tender
8The contractor is expected to serve as digital mapper, village-level registrar, and state liaison — all rolled into one.
8With all components bundled, the number of eligible bidders is likely to shrink — risking price discovery dilution.

Rotary gear pump tender draws just one bid: Technical overreach or market fixing?
8The EIL-issued limited tender for PDH-PP service gear pumps closed with only Maag Italy Srl bidding.
8This raises concerns about excessive qualification constraints or brand-specific design.
8With reverse auction and part-award mechanisms ruled out, the tender structure itself signals an all-or-nothing approach that magnifies single-vendor risk.
L1 bidder secures spring support package with 25% price gap in NRL DCU revamp
8Pipe Supports Co outbid four contenders by a wide margin in the spring assemblies tender for NRL’s coker unit revamp.

Stancor clinches GAIL pipe tender with 80% margin gap over L3
8With an aggressive quote of Rs. 15.2 lakh, Stancor beat L2 by 19% and L3 by over 260%.
8The wide bid dispersion hints at cost pressure at the bottom and disinterest or risk buffering at the top.
8L3 to L11 bids appear significantly buffered, possibly indicating margin stacking or caution on material specs.

Eleventh-hour delays cloud IOCL Paradip PMC bid: Sack the tender committee
8With 11 bid deadline extensions and shifting scopes between PMC and LSTK contractors, IOCL's ambitious Paradip PP Line upgrade project is testing industry patience and readiness. Consultant scope rationalization and tight client controls signal a project structured to mitigate IOCL risk—but not bidder workload.
8This is happening far too often, and someone needs to take the hit for this, the tender committee should be sacked.
Bid deadline deferred thrice as EIL tightens specs on BPCL Bina nitrogen plant
8Stringent relay logic, advanced temperature monitoring, and updated short-circuit ratings push vendors to recalibrate bids.
8With the submission date now extended to June 20, pressure mounts amid rising compliance costs.
8EIL mandates intelligent relays with communication, predictive diagnostics, and real-time trip cause identification. A shift to 3C3 conformal coatings adds cost and complexity for bidders.
8OTMS is now mandatory for all air circuit breaker panels, demanding wireless sensors, SCADA integration, and remote protocol compatibility—a notable jump in digital oversight.
8Level-2 minimum LPS and standardized strip sizes now explicitly mandated, adding new design compliance points based on geographic vulnerability mapping
8Despite pushback from vendors citing approval and inspection time, EIL refused extension of project timeline—timeline risk remains with EPC contractor.
EIL bends 10-year rule for PLL’s PDH pump tender: Corporate lobbying at play?
8In a rare move, EIL allows pump models supplied up to 15 years ago to qualify as field-proven, addressing OEM concerns over deployment scarcity in complex PDH service.
8With Sulzer flagging PTR gaps for its specialty vertical pumps, EIL alters eligibility terms
8Even with expanded eligibility, all instrumentation must be PESO-certified, potentially blocking even IECEx-compliant foreign OEMs from seamless qualification.
8From limited bidding to high-tech specs and field-proven clauses, this tender could see very few technically compliant bidders—unless more amendments follow.
ATF survey bid extended: IOCL’s 33 km pipeline faces routing scrutiny and environmental mapping hurdles
8Submission date for IOCL’s ATF pipeline survey has been extended, underscoring the complexity of clearances and route mapping through sensitive zones.
8Surveyors must navigate strict conditions on forest proximity, mining activity, and GIS compliance within tight timelines.
8Three alternate pipeline alignments—each crossing sensitive zones—require layered surveys including PDI, hydrological data, and CRZ-clearance-ready mapping.
8Final alignment depends heavily on GIS-layered justification.
8Despite being a "survey" tender, bidders must do groundwork for CRZ, Forest, Wildlife, and Mining clearance frameworks—without liability shields or advance payments.

8Tough Specs, Slim Turnout: 353+ MH valves now await a new plan
Why ONGC’s Mumbai High valve repair job found few takers despite urgency and had to be cancelled?
8High-pressure rating, TPI scrutiny, and API workshop clause may have filtered out several potential service providers.
8From serial stamping to dual-stage TPI-inspected repairs, ONGC’s tender mandated a rigor that may have been misaligned with current domestic service capacities. A reissue may soften technical prerequisites.
8What is more, the tender pegs 353 SSVs for overhaul but puts an invisible ceiling on repair extent, especially for valves beyond salvage. The commercial ambiguity could be why the tender didn’t move forward.
8Any delay now carries safety implications as well as cost and timeline ripple effects.

Despite authorizations touching 34,233 km, only 25,429 km of gas pipelines are operational. Regulatory data shows delays and ground-level deviations slowing India’s gas grid rollout.
8While common carrier lines form the bulk of India’s network, over 780 km are now dedicated lines, quietly catering to captive and commercial users through tailored gas delivery.
8Projects like the Mehsana–Bathinda (GIGL) and Mallavaram–Bhopal–Vijaipur (GITL) pipelines remain incomplete 14 years after authorization. A deeper crisis of execution may be at play
8With 565 km operational and 550 km under construction, sub-transmission networks remain a weak link—especially in northern and eastern India, where CGD support infrastructure is still minimal.
8At least five under-construction tie-ins are now dedicated to LNG evacuation from emerging terminals like Swan, Karaikal, and Petronet expansion zones—indicating a private LNG-led build-out push.

Compressor Package Put Under Lens Ahead Of BPREP Tender Launch
8Early scrutiny of decoking air compressor specs signals BPCL’s risk-mitigation push as timeline pressure mounts on Bina petrochemicals expansion.
8By fixing high-end API compliance upfront, EIL is signaling zero compromise on compressor integrity for the cracking unit’s most volatile duty.
8Breaking out the air compressor as a dedicated package — ahead of larger rotating equipment — reflects the project’s interdependency on clean decoke cycles.
8Detaching the air compressor from broader decoke system or cracking package may complicate interface coordination — unless addressed in the full bid.
Six deadline extensions and scope clarifications expose bidder unease in Kochi Refinery’s digital tower tender
8Despite a well-structured SaaS mandate for BPCL Kochi’s Control Tower and Common Data Environment, the bid has seen six extensions and key scope rollbacks.

Details
Despite IEX clearing prices shooting past Rs 10/kWh during peak evening slots, over half of India’s private gas plants stood idle in May.
8Is the issue a lack of fuel, or is gas power simply priced out of the market?
8Clearly, India's gas fleet is being bypassed at peak hour. Whether it's inflexible PPAs, expensive fuel, or system-level misalignment, the result is the same: stranded assets in a market that claims to reward flexibility. Details
BPCL’s compressor revamp tender retendered with tighter NDA, access controls
8A revised RFQ for Bina refinery’s SPP compressor revamp enforces stricter digital compliance, NDA gating, and clearer OEM access rules — hinting at lessons from the first round.
Signal cable scope raises qualifier alarm: GMPL PTA tender packs hidden specification Traps
8While the GMPL PTA instrumentation cable tender outlines stringent IEC- and IS-based specs, bidders flag cumulative design obligations and inflexible drum constraints. Few Indian vendors may be able to fully comply without price or schedule risk.
8IEC 60331, 60332, and LSZH clauses compound vendor material complexity—rare in a domestic-only tender.
Licensor Stringency May Be Slowing BPREP’s PP-Butene EPCC Progress
8The involvement of Axens and tight NDA controls suggest a licensor-driven delay in releasing engineering details
8This makes it harder for EPC bidders to firm up proposals on time.
8The Axens-BPCL NDA extends confidentiality to third-party subs, but also pushes full liability upstream to the bidder
Buried risks and quiet reversals: EIL tweaks BPREP cooling tower tender under industry radar
8Multiple commercial relaxations and shifting timelines signal trouble beneath the surface.
8While structural terms seem minor, deeper financial and scope adjustments mark a silent recalibration in BPCL’s LSTK playbook.
8We analyse what is really going on
Exotic metallurgy puts local fabricators under pressure for heat exchanger order
8With Monel cladding and UOP-licensed specs in play, few Indian firms may meet the qualification curve—raising dependency on niche foreign suppliers.
Multiple bid extensions hint at scope confusion in MRPL instrumentation tender
8Two-line teaser Five bid extensions and pre-bid clarifications expose deep-seated mismatches between vendor capabilities and EIL’s radar-level instrumentation scope.
8Clauses marked “not applicable” suggest recycled ITPs with limited project fit.
8Sections meant for float and servo instruments were retained verbatim, forcing bidders to sift through irrelevant clauses.
8EIL insists on vendor-supplied still wells via MR, despite mechanical nature—adding ambiguity and capex.
8Despite clear queries on tank volume and flow rates, EIL cites MR compliance—risking under/oversizing.
8While regulatory compliance was acknowledged, EIL remained silent on alternate bonnet types and pressure range flexibility.
8Bidders were told no deviations allowed, yet key technical ambiguities remained unresolved post pre-bid.

Oil India launches rare call for UBD consultancy in mature basins, aiming to cut NPT and revive aging well economics.

Compressor tender brings heat: ONGC tightens vintage, safety and mobility rules
8From 120 kg/cm² pressure delivery to onboard fire protocols, ONGC’s Assam charter hiring tender leaves no margin for low-spec vendors.
8Contractors must park compressors on-field 24/7 but earn only by usage, raising viability concerns for smaller players.
8With deployments across Lakwa, Geleky, Demul and others, lack of clear site sequence may disrupt planning and spares stockpiling.
ONGC’s Nhava jetty revamp: Pre-bid clarifications fail to plug gaps as deadline shifts again
8Despite detailed pre-bid responses, queries on layout drawings, caisson handling logistics, and milestone payments persist—indicating that ONGC’s response may not have sufficiently addressed bidder concerns on-ground.
8The turnkey format may be nudging bidders toward JV models, but marine-civil-electrical integration is notoriously hard to align contractually—likely triggering repeated extension requests.
OIL’s 1000 HP rig tender sees slow traction despite attractive 2-year term
8A two-year deployment period usually attracts robust bidder interest, but repeated extensions point to deeper logistical or cost modeling friction—particularly on power-pack and maintenance responsibilities.
8Also, with India’s pool of active 1000 HP mobile rigs already thinned by higher demand, the delay could indicate tight vendor capacity and realignment with global or offshore fleet timelines.
ONGC diesel tender extended again: Why bidders may still be cautious
8Despite revised SCC and widened delivery flexibility, ONGC’s all-India diesel tender sees fresh deadline push to 04 June—suggesting private OMCs may still be weighing pricing versus infrastructure handover terms.
8The WDV clause mandating asset takeover and handback for diesel pumps is being closely scrutinized by bidders. The extension hints at ongoing internal negotiations over long-term capex recovery.

1. OIL’s Deepwater Dreams Begin with Total and Petrobras on Board
8Backroom alliances with TotalEnergies and Petrobras mark Oil India’s pivot to ultra-deepwater exploration in OALP-IX and X—raising the stakes for India’s most geologically ambitious drilling campaign yet.
2. Flare No More: OIL Evacuates Stranded Arunachal Gas at Rs 6.5+/MMBTU
8Gas once flared at Kumchai is now monetized—thanks to new compressor stations and evacuation lines—ushering in both revenue and carbon offset gains.
3. One Pipeline, Two Strategies: Duliajan Feeder Line Rerouted to Save Rs 780 Cr
8Oil India reroutes its gas pipeline to skip Brahmaputra crossing, cutting one year of delay and Rs 780 crore in cost—quietly redefining gas infrastructure strategy in Assam.
4. Refinery First, Crude Later: Numaligarh Set to Commission Before Supply Line Completes
8The 9-MMTPA NRL expansion is on track for December 2025, but the 1,640-km Paradip crude line may cut it close—testing OIL’s execution choreography.
5. Mozambique LNG Eyes July Restart—Can the $1.8 Bn Bet Finally Pay?
8OIL’s biggest overseas investment inches toward revival as Total hints at restart this July—investors await a long-stalled dividend stream to flow.
6. NRL’s Polypropylene Bet Bucks the Downcycle—14.5% IRR Claimed
8At Rs 7,200 crore, OIL’s new PP plant stakes a claim to downstream value—despite global price headwinds and skepticism over standalone viability.
7. 75+ Wells, But No Wild Gambles: OIL’s Drilling Mix Tells a Conservative Tale
8While the company plans to drill over 75 wells this year, only 10–11 are truly exploratory—highlighting a risk-averse, production-first philosophy.
8. Diverging Fortunes: Standalone PAT Outpaces Consolidated as Overseas Ops Drag
8Despite robust domestic earnings, Oil India’s overseas subsidiaries weighed down consolidated PAT—pointing to structural volatility in its global portfolio.
9. Green Without Going Global—OIL Puts 5 GW Renewable Ambition Entirely on India
8Despite being active in 7 countries, OIL’s renewable roadmap to 2040 remains purely domestic—suggesting a cautious approach to energy transition risks abroad.
10. 20% of OIL’s Gas Output May Now Qualify for Premium Pricing
8CMD confirms up to 25% of OIL’s gas may meet ‘new well’ criteria under the Parikh formula—unlocking premium pricing amidst a bullish gas outlook.
11. 1 Lakh Cr Ambition, Quietly Confirmed: CMD Endorses Hidden Revenue Target
8CMD Ranjit Rath tacitly affirms that Oil India + NRL are chasing a Rs 2 lakh crore topline by 2030—a vision internalized across boardrooms.

Semac is a desi diving vessel and marine logistics company with an impressive global footprint. And a lot is going on with it
8After months of downtime and visa delays, the Swordfish has been chartered by Aramco at a fixed rate for 730 days, signaling a long-term foothold in the Gulf’s saturated diving support segment.
8
With all vessels deployed and no idle capacity, Seamec fast-tracks fleet expansion through a new MSV purchase—financed via internal accruals and debt—to meet a confirmed 4–5 year offshore contract.
8Despite UAE arm turning profitable, depreciation and interest costs from the UK unit continue to drag consolidated profits—pushes cash-positivity to FY26–27
8Seamec’s two-season alliance with Porsche Subsea and L&T concludes, with revenue fully recognized. The team now enters PRP-VIII—smaller, but strategic in keeping ageing assets productive.
8Despite rising O&M costs, three of Seamec’s oldest vessels remain operational. Company confirms no scrapping planned unless margins collapse.
8Investments in UK operations yield no immediate cash; losses tied to non-cash depreciation and interest on capex. Strategy being “re-evaluated.”
8Saudi Arabia’s visa ban for South Asians during Haj month stranded Seamec Swordfish at port in April, derailing initial March charter plans.
8All operational vessels now on 2–5 year charters; only Seamec Barge remains on scheduled off-hire during monsoons. Dry dock maintenance expected to cause minor revenue dips mid-year.
8Unlike drilling rigs tied to oil price swings, Seamec’s post-discovery MSV operations enjoy fixed charter stability—ensuring predictable returns even in downcycles.
8Seamec launches Searete India IFSC Pvt Ltd, a JV with Arete Shipping DMCC, to buy and charter bulk carriers. The venture is asset-backed and expected to generate rental income from year one.
8With tonnage tax shielding most shipping income, Seamec’s sudden tax spike arose from profits on its non-qualifying barge and income from interest and mutual fund gains.
8The long-promised transfer of HAL’s vessel Seamec Anant to Seamec Ltd is still under process. Seamec aims to consolidate ONGC contracts under its own banner during renewals.

Offshore insurance: Structured pricing matrix signals ONGC’s shift to actuarial discipline
8ONGC demands depth-wise, type-wise, and activity-wise premium disclosures, raising the bar for insurance transparency and bid comparability.
8The PSU has opted to retain USD 200 million cover per deepwater well with a modest USD 3 million deductible despite zero loss ratio so far.
8A split payment system — 50% at spud and balance post-drill — gives ONGC flexibility in cashflow while holding insurers accountable to real activity.
8In the directional development category, ONGC expects bids for wells exceeding 17,000 ft, pushing insurers into the high-risk, high-premium frontier.

DAHEJ PDH-PP TENDER LAYS DOWN ONE OF THE HEAVIEST COLUMN SPECS IN RECENT YEARS: IMPOSSIBLE TO QUALIFY
8PLL’s latest tender for CS & SS columns includes a 70-meter Deethanizer column weighing 330 MT, setting structural and transportability challenges not typically seen in domestic EPC scopes.
8The stainless steel deethanizer at 70.1 meters TL-to-TL and 330 MT weight poses a major fabrication and site-handling challenge. Few Indian vendors can qualify.
8In a rare clause, the qualification mandates past fabrication of ≥4620 mm dia and ≥34200 mm long CS/AS/SS pressure vessels — cutting out firms lacking oversized bay capacity and heavy lifting gear.
8Vendors face aggressive timelines—15 months to Dahej FOT delivery and 3 months to erect and install internals on site, pushing project logistics and post-delivery readiness planning to the edge.
FROM TRACKING PANELS TO WIND TREES: ALL OPTIONS ON TABLE FOR RE STUDY BY THIS REFINER FOR ITS COMPLEX

8No detailed layout or tie-in logic shared, even though contractors must draw from multiple nearby headers without fixed specs.
8Vendors flagged contradictory riser layouts and P&ID mismatches — but amendment offers no harmonization.
8While CT-1 is said to host the H?SO? tank, flowline path to CT-2 remains undefined, inviting site execution disputes.
8Despite assumptions of manual operation, the amendment mandates unified PLC-based control, adding automation cost.
8EIL insists on high ppm for scale inhibitors, ignoring bidder inputs on corrosion risk — possibly inflating OPEX.
8One bidder proposed safer anodic inhibitors — but EIL declines with a boilerplate “follow bid” stance.
8While commissioning chemicals are excluded, the vendor’s long-term dosing accountability remains under-defined.
CENTRIFUGAL PUMP FOR MRPL’S BIO-ATF PLANT: INTERPRETATION RISKS?
8Vendors flagged contradictory suction pressure and NPSHA values across datasheets — leading EIL to amend mechanical specs to reflect process values.
8Multiple bidders sought higher downstream pressure margins; EIL declined, reinforcing strict adherence to MR values.
8S6 and A8 material classes now permitted, easing procurement hurdles for vendors with pre-approved inventories.

PRICE GAP SIGNALS VOLATILITY IN STRAINER PROCUREMENT
8With consistent low quotes, Triveni is forcing rivals to reconsider pricing models on small-to-mid volume strainers. Instead of a broad sweep, Bombay Chemical wins select items with tactically sharp pricing.
8Multiple Rs.0.00 bids from Grand Prix Engineering raise questions about incomplete submissions or strategic withdrawal.
8Despite being a known vendor, Gujarat Otofilt’s bids trailed L1s significantly—over 90% in some cases.
8Some items show a near 100% difference between L1 and L2 bids, pointing to wide cost estimation disparities.
8The tender shows a classic case of undercutting, hinting at shrinking margins across the piping component supply chain.
