8BPCL has pushed the EPCM deadline for the HCU revamp ahead while issuing Addendum-1 and a dense Q&A pack. The owner has refused requests to relax man-month triggers, outsource key roles, or soften liability, and has reiterated no escalation on the lump-sum. With TA-1 staring at April 2026, the message is speed without subsidy—plan early, price tight.

8IOCL has pushed ahead the Paradip PO–Polyol consultancy bid while hardening commercial controls with Reverse Auction intact. The study timeline moves from 12 to 16 weeks, but the zero date remains tied to the kick-off meeting. Separate licensors, independent grid power, and licensor-anchored flare/utilities sizing raise the entry bar for bidders.

8BPCL’s Bina tankage bidders pressed for plot plans, steel escalation baselines, and hydrotest water treatment clarity. EIL’s replies kept escalation opaque, shifted inhibitor costs to contractors, and deferred tank pad sequencing to post-award. The package tightens risk on the vendor side without loosening delivery timelines.

8The bid clock has moved nine times. The shifts track a steady drip of clarifications — from no free-issue materials to commissioning-utility ownership and ecs interfaces. The commercial core stays tight while the technical canvas fills in.

8IOCL is inviting five-year offtake proposals to capture value from this refinery’s mixed-strength flue gases. With custody ex-units and all capture/logistics costs pushed to the vendor, the risk-reward sits squarely on technology and operations. The pricing key is a per-MT quote with annual escalation, but the deeper commercial scaffolding will be set post-shortlisting.

8Technically, the SOW forces bidders to move beyond dashboards to a closed loop of detection, RCA, strategy linkage, and quantified asset-health impact, with ML lifecycle control to avoid model rot.
8Commercially, cash is locked behind SAT and successive benefit-audit gates, shifting risk of “value realization” to the vendor; CPS and PRS extend that discipline.
8Operationally, zone-rating, server-load headroom and “include all essentials” language reduce integration surprises and safety exposure at site.
8Expect OEM-backed APM vendors with proven process-industry references to dominate; the BYOM and non-black-box clauses, however, open doors for integrators with strong data-science pedigree tied to process know-how.

No-RA, 60-day mobilization and 5% PBG frame a tight coring mandate in OIL Mahanadi exploratory blocks
8OIL has taken conventional coring in the Mahanadi blocks to GeM with a two-packet, total-value bid and no reverse auction.
8The bid locks a 60-day mobilization and a 5% performance security under Integrity Pact scrutiny.
8What is missing are the LD mechanics and acceptance KPIs that will decide where execution risk finally lands.
Six regional electrical bidders circle ILM rig de/build package as ONGC deletes EMD but keeps 5% PBG in MBA basin
8The ILM package knits dismantling, rebuilding and electrical reinstatement across three pads under tighter bid discipline.
8ONGC has removed EMD but retained a 5% performance bond, changing cash dynamics without softening performance recourse.
8The documentation bar is higher than the capital bar — and that could decide who stays in the race.
Strict truck-powered APU spec and contractor-borne costs hold after pre-bid queries for ONGC APU Ankleshwar & WSS Ahmedabad
8Four bidders pushed for modular and “equivalent” options, but ONGC kept the spec welded to API-monogrammed treating iron and on-truck integration.
8Diesel escalation remains off the table for Ahmedabad while tolls and chemical handling stay with vendors.
8With five-year terms confirmed, expect a narrower field and sharper compliance policing at techno-commercial opening.
Bid date extended to 16 September 2025 for multi-asset plunger lift rollout
8ONGC has moved the bid deadline to 16 September 2025, two weeks beyond the published 02 September calendar on GeM.
8The change lands alongside a robust ATC set—option clause maths, QA pre-dispatch, and a clarified OEC/IIAC dispute ladder.
8Expect a wider RA field, but with quality and Make-in-India filters doing the quiet triage.

8Prabha Energy has pushed the bid due date to 08 September 2025, adding 37 days over the original 02 August 2025 schedule.
8The extension intersects a contract architecture that caps standby at 80% and repair at 50% of operating, with strict time cut-outs.
8Acceptance testing and HSE gatekeeping stay firmly in place, tightening the path to mobilisation.

8The SOW hard-codes 95/99 availability, time-boxed mobilization/repairs, and compressor overhauls while bundling consumables and spares logistics.
8A/B/C equipment grading and pro-rata scope shifts will decide who can credibly hold uptime through rig rotations.

Three qualify as IOCL tests buried lines with LRUT; duration ambiguity clouds crew sizing — IOCL/Guwahati Refinery LRUT.
8A four-way LRUT race at Guwahati has yielded three technical qualifiers, with one bidder dropped. The scope demands live-line guided-wave coverage of culvert and underground stretches, strict qualifications, and 24-hour backup mobilisation. But the tender’s 12- vs 24-month duration split introduces a pricing and resourcing puzzle.

GGL hard-codes O&M floors and PV evaluation in CNG compressor rate contract, adds IE3 motors and caps gas loss at 0.5%
8GGL’s latest CNG compressor rate contract shifts the game from capex to lifecycle, with O&M floors stepping up to 19% by year nine. A 0.5% gas-loss cap and class-based PRS design/testing move shrinkage and safety policing to the bidder’s side. With reverse auction on tap and a 32-month CBG, the commercial leash is tight without inviting suicidal quotes.
EIL opens limited RFQ for reciprocating labyrinth compressor under NRL’s 360 KTPA PPU, with NDA-gated docs and nil EMD
8A limited vendor pool will navigate NDA gates and NIC registration to access the full MR and BOQ. The client has waived EMD but held firm on a 120-day bid hold and a strict exceptions regime. FOB with an 18-month window sets delivery risk boundaries for a process-critical machine.
CPCL rolls PSA nitrogen rental tender forward as no-idle clauses and 500 nm³/hr floor test bidder appetite
8CPCL’s PSA nitrogen rental has moved forward through a string of extensions while keeping RA enabled. The tender hard-codes no idle payments for CPCL-side downtime and fixes a 500 nm³/hr consumption floor. That combination tightens vendor cashflows even as CPCL promises power/utilities and location inside the fence.
PLL/EIL push Dahej DCS bid due forward as lifecycle-cost policing and zero-deviation rules stay intact
8PLL’s Dahej DCS tender has been extended twice. The pack keeps zero-deviation and a bottomline-with-lifecycle evaluation that prices training, CPWAMC and UR baskets. The CIF import-content disclosure raises the bar on customs clarity while OEM-only BQC shapes the vendor pool.
IOCL extends Panipat naphtha tank EPC bid twice to 10 Sep; RA-driven price discovery stays intact
8IOCL has pushed the Panipat naphtha tank package in two steps without touching the RA playbook. The tender remains a “critical works contract” with stiff PQCs and GST-inclusive evaluation. The cadence signals IOCL’s bias for competition quality over a rushed close.
PLL/EIL extends PDH PP water-service pump RFQ by 18 days, keeps zero-deviation and group-wise evaluation
8EIL has pushed the bid due date for PLL’s PDH PP water-service pumps to 16 September, from 29 August. The extension arrives without loosening zero-deviation bidding or the group-wise evaluation construct. Whether the extra 18 days widens the bidder bench or simply de-risks document readiness will show up at opening.

Technip Energies wins BPCL Bina HGU PMC at Rs 6.36 crore after three bid extensions — BPCL Bina HGU project
8BPCL closed a tightly governed GeM two-packet PMC for adding ID/FD capacity at the Bina HGU after three deadline shifts. Only one qualifying price surfaced, with Prism Infratech disqualified and Technip Energies taking L1. The contract leans on free-issue machines, composite testing, and a 2027 TA commissioning window.
Pragna pips iFluids by 0.1% for HAZOP/LOPA at HPCL’s Visakh Refinery, with steep gaps to L3/L4
8A razor-thin L1-L2 gap points to RA-driven compression in a specialist scope. The two-step jump to L3 and L4 says capabilities and cost bases diverge sharply beyond the top tier. The real story is whether price pressure erodes chairing depth across VRMP-complex systems.
CR3 takes BPCL’s CDU3/NHGU decontamination award as BPCL tightens interfaces, KPIs and TPIA compliance in Mumbai refinery.
8BPCL has awarded the CDU3/NHGU decontamination package with the top two bids separated by just 3.0%. The techno-commercial amendment tightened BQC to TPIA-approved documents and shifted key interfaces in temporary piping and electricals. The LD/KPI structure signals how BPCL intends to run its 2026 turnaround—details inside.
Span Chem wins HCU/LOBS/DAS decontamination at BPCL MR as 48-hour LD-heavy SoW sets the pace
8BPCL MR’s TA’26 decontamination package went to Span Chem at a sharp discount to the L2/L3 cluster. The SoW demands 48-hour completion with hour-metered LDs and a zero-benzene/H2S KPI slate. The split of utilities and temporary works clarifies interfaces while pushing execution risk downstream.
Secon wins HPCL’s VNPL statutory-approval package at ~Rs 1.77 crore; scope stiffened with CZMP mandate
8HPCL closed the VNPL approvals tender with Secon edging out SKP by 15.5%. A late Corrigendum hardened the CRZ scope by mandating CZMP from listed government agencies. The option clause and integrity pact weave flexibility with stricter governance.

8ONGC has opened a single-bid, year-round empanelment for jack-up rigs while reserving price/QCBS for limited tenders.

8STCC-published tug recovery formulas and contractor-borne pandemic/PPE costs narrow dispute vectors but push readiness risk to bidders.

8A limited LLI tender for unengineered tower internals at BPCL Kochi drew a lone technical bid. EIL has tightened commercials by inserting site-work terms and a 70% site-work price floor against the supply value.

BPCL Ramayapatnam refinery ODC/OWC survey bid due date pushed twice to 08 Sep — EIL keeps quality-first cadence.
8EIL has extended the bid clock for BPCL’s Ramayapatnam ODC/OWC survey by two weeks beyond the original 25 Aug deadline. The scope underpins heavy-lift logistics into the greenfield site and is being run as a limited, invitation-only tender.

8Six firms bid for BPCL’s Kandla pipeline route survey but only one cleared the technical bar.

Corrigendum rewires securities, precedence and governance without touching IPS scope in ONGC IPS onshore multi-asset
8Money rails widen, governance tightens.
8The fine print now dictates what trumps what  and how late securities will cost.
8The scope stays technical, but the procurement plumbing just got sharper.
Bid deadline pushed to 18 September with securities flexibility intact and a trimmed GR/CCL clause for OIL slickline services (Assam & Arunachal)
8OIL has extended the slickline bid window into mid-September.
8The move lands alongside buyer-added banking flexibility and a precise technical edit.
8The real question is whether a longer runway converts into tighter compliance and narrower spreads.
Bid deadline slid to 04 September; scope steady but PBG and payment clocks need harmonisation in PEL NK-CBM RoU tender
8PEL has pushed the RoU bid close by seven days. The scope stays permissions-heavy and unchanged.
8The real friction now is the split PBG and payment language that could tax bidder cashflows.

8Reverse auction dynamics and a five-year FMS will decide which integrator can deliver scale without compromising uptime.
Bid window pushed to 12 September 2025 as ONGC seeks deeper, TPI-ready HOC participation for ONGC multi-asset HOC package
8The hot oil package moves from a 14 July close to a 12 September finish.
8That is a 60-day swing designed to absorb TPI, OEM and logistics constraints.
8How it reshapes bidder depth and price discipline is what matters behind the wall.
Bid deadline shifted to 10 September 2025 after multiple rounds of schedule and commercial recalibration for OIL India KG Basin modular stimulation in Andaman
8OIL has pushed the modular stimulation close into mid-September while cutting EMD and tightening duration.

8Whether this widens bidder depth and compresses spreads is the question behind the wall.

Payper SA clinches BPCL Kochi PP bagging plant as Statec’s quote trails by 36%
8BPCL’s Kochi polypropylene expansion has closed with Payper SA emerging L1 at Rs 65.20 crore, a steep 36% below rival Statec Binder GmbH. Engineers India Ltd, acting as PMC, ran the package under strict NDA and zero-deviation rules, with bidders forced through e-procure and NIC registration loops. The tender highlights the tightening of financial disclosure, TPIA-verification, and holiday-list compliance under new MoPNG guidelines.
AS Engineers takes GMPL sludge dryer package as L2 quotes nearly double — GMPL/Mangalore SEZ
8A two-bid, domestic e-tender ended with AS Engineers at Rs 2.12 crore and L2 at Rs 4.22 crore. GMPL’s BDS ticks “no ITC,” forcing bidders to hard-price GST and compliance. The gap hints at divergent risk pricing on a turnkey utility package.
Chemcleanzio wins BPCL Mumbai Refinery decontamination as GeM award shows 68–240% spread and harsh LDs
8A decon/passivation package for DHT, KHT and RMP SRU closed on GeM with Chemcleanzio at Rs 66.08 lakh and an unusually wide field behind. BPCL’s amendment tightened last-mile scope on bidders while keeping main headers in-house, and the SOW hard-wires a 60-hour delivery bar with severe LDs. The pricing gap hints at sharply different takes on execution risk and KPI certainty.
Kalinga Insulation wins CDU-II shutdown insulation package with a 20% lead over L2 in IOCL Haldia Refinery
8A five-way contest ended with Kalinga Insulation, well ahead of the pack. IOCL’s no-escalation, scaffolding-included baseline and BG rating floors signal tight control over both costs and banking risk. The gap now raises questions on how L1 will manage wage drift, access and HSE without eroding margins.

8A four-way race ended with Deloitte far ahead of the pack. EIL narrowed the liquidated damages base to just 20% of the lumpsum but kept firm prices and a 10% PBG. The 4-month Go-live target will now test whether aggressive pricing can meet refinery-grade integration timelines.

Pipeline revamp tender: Live ramp needed
8Technically, the package leans on high-pressure valve classes, insulating joints with surge diverters, and an ICCP system overhaul — all classic pain points in live pipeline/terminal revamps, where isolation, hot-work control and CP continuity define outage safety and commissioning velocity. The inclusion of CP-specific materials specs (cable ID, NACE SP-0572 coke breeze) suggests the need for durable, inspectable CP performance with traceable QA.
NRL splits NREP instrumentation into PRU and GDS with tightened EMD and evidence rules.
8The EPCM-1 instrumentation tender separates PRU and GDS to keep price tension and execution focus.The owner may line up separate agencies for each group with least cumulative cost. This structure lets the owner choose a split award if pricing diverges by unit. It also forces bidders to price each group competitively on its own merits. A monthly vendor–consultant in-person review hints at aggressive drawing closure to defend the 12-month mechanical target.
Instrumentation split tender sets 12+6 delivery cadence and monthly code-1 reviews for PRU and GDS in NRL’s NREP
8NRL has launched a two-group instrumentation tender for PRU and GDS under EPCM-1. Evaluation envisages separate agencies with least cost to owner on a cumulative basis. That encourages aggressive bidding without forcing a single award. It also lets the owner reallocate if one group underperforms.A long experience window widens eligibility, but monthly in-person “code-1” reviews add execution overhead. The 12+6 schedule locks contractors into commissioning support through stabilisation.
Third extension pushes IOCL’s Barauni VRU EPCC-15 to 23 September as PMC hardens scope, studies and PLC/TAS integration.
8IOCL has shifted the EPCC-15 VRU bid due date three times, now to 23 September, stretching the window by 55 days. The PMC has clarified that HAZOP, SIL and vapour mapping sit squarely with the bidder, alongside civil, instrumentation and TAS-level integration. Equipment-type flexibility is offered, but only under uncompromised performance guarantees.
IOCL extends Digboi UCO feed tender four times to 05 Sep as HDT impurity caps narrow the vendor pool
8IOCL’s Digboi UCO/non-edible oil procurement has been pushed in four steps to 05 Sep while keeping bid-opening tethered to the next working day. The technical bar—especially on chloride, phosphorus and total metals—demands lab-verifiable compliance. The extensions signal a preference for feed quality assurance over speed.

BKW penalty muscle and binding PBQ define EIL’s Bina vertical-pump tender as bid due date slips
8The package now ties factory power tests to rejection and a formulaic penalty, putting efficiency on the line. PBQ answers hard-lock hydraulic assumptions and scope demarcations that vendors must price and design to. The bid clock has been pushed, though the uploaded notice does not state the new dates.
IOCL extends AVU-I corrosion control tender to 04 Sep as RA, penalties and 2% utilities levy raise the bar
8Four extensions have pushed IOCL Panipat’s AVU-I corrosion control bid from 12 August to 4 September. Corrigendum uploads and bidder replies signal tightening specs on passivation, KPIs and lab methods. With RA on and utilities charged at 2%, only vendors confident on high-TAN delivery will stay aggressive.
IOCL pushes MPPL conversion SCADA/LDS tender by 18 days, keeps PQC and RA intact
8Two date-only addenda have shifted the submission to 08 Sep while preserving every commercial and technical guardrail. The move buys time for PAS/LDS consortiums to firm up OEM consents and multi-station BoMs without altering IOCL’s risk posture. The real question is whether wider participation will sharpen RA outcomes without compromising delivery discipline.
PMHBL extends CDP bid to 04 Sep as language scope narrows and performance wording softens
8PMHBL has pushed its CDP submission to 04 September after bidders sought more time. In parallel, pre-bid revisions narrow bilingual coverage to mobile modules and recast a key performance line from “at least” to “upto” 100 users. Those tweaks shift cost and sizing assumptions without relaxing integration and security burdens.
EIL shifts BPCL Bina BPREP pressure vessel bid head, tightening compliance without altering BQC
8BPREP pressure vessel deadline has been pushed ahead. Nothing else in the bid architecture—BQC, EMD, NDA, or two-bid model—has changed. The move looks surgical, aimed at documentation quality rather than scope or risk transfer.
IOCL Bongaigaon shutdown contract pushes QA-heavy scope as GeM auto-extends bid window
8The composite shutdown contract at IOCL Bongaigaon now runs to a 05 September bid close after GeM’s auto-extension kicked in. RA is on, but only a quorum will unlock its price-discovery edge. Behind the scenes, IOCL’s flange-leak penalties and torque/tension mandates will shape who bids and how they price the outage risk.
IOCL pushes 2G ethanol boiler bale-feed bid to 6 September but keeps reverse auction and tight PQC
8Two sequential date shifts take the bid from 26 August to 6 September without touching core terms. Reverse auction stays on, and a niche bale-handling PQC continues to screen the field. The balance between participation and reliability now hinges on who can prove six months of successful operation.
HPCL nudges Bayavaram hydrogen station consultancy bid by four days without loosening compliance
8HPCL pushed the GeM deadline from 30 August to 3 September in two short steps. The bid model, securities and stringent certification timelines remain intact. The small slide suggests tight PQC and safety paperwork, not a change in risk posture.

BPCL’s HCU decontamination shortlist locks in four technically-qualified bidders under a 48-hour LD clock
8Technical screening has cleared four vendors for bpcl’s hcu decontamination package while one was dropped. The rules now hinge on a 48-hour execution guarantee, zero-tolerance KPIs, and a steep 9%-per-day LD. A late pre-bid amendment quietly shifted power-cable and last-mile duties onto bidders, changing who carries the schedule risk.
NRPL’s DPPL Panipat SCADA upgrade draws a sole technical bid under a proprietary tender
8A tightly-scoped SCADA change at DPPL Panipat opened with a single technical bid under a proprietary route. The job stitches new metering and filtration hooks into Zenon COPA-DATA with LDS exposure and defined HMI edits. ATC guardrails and a three-month clock suggest execution certainty is being priced over open competition.
IOCL Bongaigaon cancels refinery expansion topographical survey bid after setting strict PQC and 17-month PBG
8The bid for topo survey is now cancelled despite a clear two-packet structure and documented PQCs. A 5% ePBG locked for 17 months on a two-month job would have tested smaller surveyors’ liquidity. The re-issue, if any, will show whether IOCL recalibrates tenure, scope clarity, or packaging.
