8ONGC has hard-coded a sizeable EMD and lifted the turnover bar while refining how audited financials can be presented.
8The SCC subtly recasts manpower control from “approval” to “verification/permission/assessment,” aiming to accelerate fielding without losing oversight.
8The KPI/penalty spine stays firm despite bidder pushback — the catch lies in how bidders price this tighter reliability regime.

8The job balances three pivots:  An ESP-powered production on unmanned decks, a rigid pipeline stability within defined hydrodynamic envelopes, and a riser platform bridging to legacy platform and a future MOPU.
8That puts design accountability for seabed friction, trenching/bedding, and concrete-weighting squarely on the contractor — with survey responsibility explicitly on the bidder, compressing float and increasing front-end engineering value.

The Petronet LNG brass seems to be on the right side of the govenrment
8And there are collateral benefits from that
Click on Details for more Details
1) L1 lands PS-01 O&M support OIL locks four-year service cover
8A six-bidder field produced a steep 20–24% gap between L1 and the chasing pack.
8With no arbitration/mediation and a 51-month ePBG, the execution risk sits squarely with the contractor.
8The unanswered question is how L1 will sustain overtime and compliance costs without squeezing margins.
 
2) JCA Technologies wins OIL NBPL RoW patrol
8A three-way contest for NBPL’s patrol contract ended with a decisive price gap.
8The winning quote undercuts L2 by 21.9% despite full statutory and GPS compliance obligations.
8Whether the margin holds against penalties and surge deployment remains the unanswered question.
 
3) ONGC cancels calibration gases refilling and cylinder services package for Bassein & Satellite Asset
8A safety-critical refilling contract with strict IS/PESO and lab de-bonding gates has been pulled.
8The pause stalls a 30-day SLA model across Nhava, JNPT, Karanja and Pipavav.
8What ONGC retains in a re-issue will set the bar for QA, timeline risk and vendor liquidity.
 
4) Top-drive torque eased but safety envelope intact in 1000 HP drilling rig
8Oil India has lowered the top-drive torque floor to widen compliant rig options without touching hazardous-area controls.
8The bid book also locks in stricter local-content and JV hygiene under a revised BEC.
8Payment-security flexibility remains on GeM, and the clock now runs to 30 October for compliant filings.
 
5) Bid window pushed to 30 October for microgrid EPC+O&M at three OIL sites
8OIL has moved the bid closing and opening to 30 October 2025 for its three-site microgrid tender.
8The 14-day push from the prior date gives integrators more time to reconcile PV/BESS/EMS packages and original EMD logistics.
8All other commercial and technical terms remain unchanged.
 
6) Bid window now runs to 31 October for mobile ETP services across five work centers in ONGC
8ONGC’s mobile ETP package on GeM is understood to be pushed to 31 October 2025.
8The extra 21 days collide with a fresh duty/GST framework that can move landed costs if bidders don’t leverage merit-rate carve-outs.
8The performance-spec SOW and non-performance deductions remain intact.

8ONGC has opened the financial gate for bidders using audited consolidated accounts while banning mix-and-match certifications.
8The safety bar rises with OEM-centric BOP rules under OISD-STD-174 and non-negotiable braking and pump specifications.
8Dates have been pushed again, but the technical floor has not moved.

8A five-rig workover package with stricter local-content and support-entity safeguards has been cancelled.
8The reset pauses a capacity refresh that leaned on API-compliant rigs with certified residual life.

1) Point-16 safety dossier and zero-rate ban raise the bar on PRFCCU bidders in BPCL Mumbai Refinery dismantling
8BPCL has bundled a rare, data-heavy safety disclosure into the techno-commercial gate for PRFCCU. A strict rejection matrix now knocks out zero-priced service lines and missing PPP-MII and land-border declarations. The PBG instrument route is being re-wired under an amended clause, changing how banks issue paper.
 
2) HPCL CCPLl CIPL survey hard-codes no-escalation and 25% swing, demands nacE-led GPS-aligned evidence
8HPCL has put a dense, evidence-heavy CIPL campaign on itsCCPL section with nacE staffing and 24-hour ac-pickup logging at scale. The commercial frame bars escalation and shields 25% quantity swing while layering CPBG and security deposits. The acceptance hinges on synchronized interrupters, GPS-aligned datasets, and tight psp windows—details inside.

8A hydrogen consulting tender that had steadily widened participation has been pulled.
8The move halts a sequence of timeline, security, and BEC relaxations designed to keep bidders in play.
8What survives into a re-issue will determine vendor pricing discipline and programme timelines. 
Click on Details for more Details
1) Bid due extended thrice for rotary-lobe pump package in LNG PDH-PP, Dahej
8The rotary-lobe pump tender for PLL’s PDH-PP complex has shifted its bid clock by 42 days. NDA-gated specs and strict BQC remain intact, with delivery and EMD terms unchanged. That combination usually narrows surprises at opening but raises the bar on documentation discipline.
 
2) BPCL BPREP analyser systems tender gets a third bid-date extension
8The gas chromatograph package for BPREP has now moved to a 30 October bid due. EMD stays at Rs 1 crore and the qualification bar remains unchanged. The repeated extensions point to OEM/integrator coordination rather than a reset of terms.
 
3) EIL pushes PDH-PP Dahej ODC-vessels bid to 10 Nov after two extensions
8EIL has moved the Vessels (CS vessels)-ODC deadline from 03 Oct to 10 Nov. The package carries licensor-gated access and heavy ODC obligations with PESO and single-piece nitrogen-blanketed delivery. The delay resets bidder logistics and compliance timelines without loosening zero-deviation discipline.
 
4) Second extension pushes IOCL Barauni Biturox UPS bid to 06 Nov
8IOCL has nudged the Biturox UPS tender twice, adding thirty days to the bid clock. Corrigenda keep RFQ supremacy on GeM and bolt in a 25 percent option clause. The mix favours spec discipline over bid-window velocity.
 
5) Petronet LNG PDH-PP heat-exchanger tender gets six-day extension
8EIL has pushed the PDH-PP heat-exchanger bid due date by six days. The NDA-gated, zero-deviation tender keeps all commercial guardrails intact with delivery still pegged at 11 months. That small shift could change the depth and comparability of offers without slipping the critical path.
 
6) Bid window pushed to 4 November for API-610 pump package
8BPCL’s Bina petchem-refinery expansion pump tender gets a 14-day breather. The extension lands amid strict NDA and PTR rules tied to licensor data and Ex-rated motors. Expect a tighter, more competitive field once bidders lock hydraulics and responsibility matrices.

8Indian Oil’s responses to bidder clarifications on its pan-India CBG empanelment EoI show a clear bias toward control and policy latitude. The company has kept ownership, equity, and offtake terms open-ended while fixing a Rs 10 crore equity floor. Developers see opportunity but face uncertainty on bankability, feedstock risk, and credit entitlement.

1) EIL cancels Numaligarh PPU compressor tender on administrative grounds
8A limited-competition compressor package for NRL’s PPU has been scrapped on administrative grounds. The original RFQ hard-wired bottomline evaluation with PWAMC, FAT, and HAZOP loadings. Watch for a re-issue that may clarify interfaces and timelines without softening lifecycle obligations.
 
2) Nine-way contest after date push for EPCM fire-water upgradation
8KLL has tightened the technical baseline for its fire-water revamp and then extended the clock to widen the field. The corrigendum inserts pump-capacity specifics and a Planning Manager role, pointing to schedule-heavy brownfield concerns. With nine names in, evaluation will hinge on proven revamp commissioning and paperwork hygiene.

1) iFluids Engineering wins BPCL Bina HAZOP study with a 15 % edge under tight onsite-only terms
8BPCL Bina has finalized its HAZOP services tender for CPP, DCU and KHDS units after a steeply graded price race. The winning bid from iFluids Engineering undershot multinational quotes by up to tenfold, highlighting severe market polarization. BPCL’s onsite-only and multi-LD clauses may set a new benchmark for refinery safety audits.
 
2) Arvind Envisol takes PLL Dahej water block with a 47% price gap to L2
8A five-way contest ends with an aggressive L1 nearly half below L2. Technical amendments tightened effluent/oil specs and re-cast sludge handling while price-sheet mechanics were rewritten mid-process. The commercial guardrails now test whether the low quote can hold through commissioning.
 
3) Alpha wins composite E&I-civil connectivity package as IGGL tightens NEGG timelines
8IGGL’s connectivity package lands with a clear L1 and a compressed 4.5-month clock. A late-cycle corrigendum nudged dates without touching scope or evaluation. The pricing ladder hints at disciplined bids rather than a race to the bottom.
 
4) Godrej & Boyce takes PLL Dahej 220 kV GIS–MRSS package amid tightened IP and SAS duties
8The winning bid lands against a firm owner-ownership and exclusive licensing regime. SAS, FO and metering-room clarifications push more integration and commissioning risk onto the EPC. The single-bid outcome hints at a high-bar interface job with pricing power.
 
5) Deloitte takes QCBS award for GAIL Gas listing study
8GAIL Gas has picked Deloitte as L1 for a 90-day listing feasibility and roadmap. The scope compels timing advice, governance changes, and an Excel valuation model beyond boilerplate. With a 20.4% gap to L2, the price signal points to paid-for depth over checklist consulting.

1) MAWP relaxation attempt rejected in PLL Dahej
8Vendors sought to drop the drinking-water pump MAWP from 18.6 to 16 kg/cm²g; EIL said to follow MR. The stance preserves surge/temperature headroom in a polymer-linked utility. Expect fewer warranty disputes at the cost of higher casting/pressure-part specs.
 
2) Saga Global takes HFHSD Naob Rambili design job just below estimate
8IOCL has awarded the Naob Rambili HFHSD front-end design and survey package to Saga Global, edging in slightly under the owner estimate. The bid spread is unusually wide, with L2 more than 55% above L1 and PDIL over triple. The structure loads quality assurance onto the consultant via IIT vetting and tight 6-month delivery.
 
3) CDU-3 CBD replacement awarded on steep L2 gap
8A two-year, non-divisible rate contract for CDU-3 CBD replacement at Kochi has closed on overall L1. The second quote sat 43.3% higher, hinting at asymmetric risk pricing. The clause stack will decide whether that gap becomes margin or mitigation.

1) Bina cracker-refinery DCS bid clock pushed by 72 days to widen OEM field
8BPCL’s Bina petchem-plus-refinery DCS tender has been rolled forward five times to a final 31-Oct deadline. The base terms stay unforgiving — zero deviation, NDA, and heavy India-proven BQC on ~47k I/Os. That combination narrows the field, but the extra time could still pull a more competitive slate.
 
2) Extruder & pelletizer package: Bid due pushed again after three extensions
8EIL has shifted the NRL PPU extruder and pelletizer bid deadline three times, now landing on 04 Nov 2025. The move extends the window by 35 days from the original 30 Sep close without changing scope or EMD posture in the excerpt. Expect validity, pricing holds, and OEM alignment to realign with the new clock.
 
3) NRL PPU conveyor pneumatic RFQ gets two pushes, 15-day bid window now closes on 28 Oct
8EIL has extended the PPU pneumatic conveying bid date twice, moving from 13 October to 28 October. The change buys bidders time to reconcile OEM confirmations under an NDA-gated, bottom-line evaluation. But it also nudges the award timeline against long-lead compressor and filtration deliveries.
 
4) PNGRB pushes Vizag ATF pipeline bid close to 21 Nov; Scope reset to 85 km and PQC re-based
8The ATF pipeline tender from Visakhapatnam to the new airport gets a third extension under Regulation 5(8). PNGRB has lengthened the route definition to 85 km, issued an indicative map, and re-based the combined net worth to Rs 42.5 crore. The bid window now closes on 21 November with technical opening on 24 November.
 
5) EIL pushes three bid extensions but keeps tight integration rules in BPREP vacuum ejector revamp
8The vacuum ejector revamp at BPCL’s Bina complex has slipped by 28 days across three deadline pushes. Yet EIL has not diluted the brownfield discipline: match existing outline/nozzles, prove shop performance, and show readiness for PGTR. That combination narrows the field to OEMs who can engineer under tight interfaces.
 
6) EIL extends Bio-ATF pump tender deadline to 30 October for MRPL project
8Engineers India has granted a nine-day extension for submission of bids on the centrifugal and controlled-volume pump package of MRPL’s Bio-ATF plant. The shift from 21 to 30 October allows vendors extra time to align QA documentation under strict zero-deviation rules. With EMD waived but performance loading clauses intact, the move aims to preserve competitive participation without pushing project delivery.

1) NDA-gated pump package tightens eligibility and schedule risk in BPCL Bina refinery expansion project
8The technical part and BOQ unlock only after nda upload and acceptance on the portal. This sequencing reshapes how quickly bidders can mobilize engineering. Expect fewer casual participants and tighter data hygiene.
 
2) Composite SV/IPS works framed with tight BQC and 14-month clock in HPCL’s Visakh–Raipur pipeline
8HPCL has set a firm 14-month schedule for composite SV/IPS packages under the Visakh–Raipur line with EIL as EPCM. Draft BQC thresholds, positive net-worth and working-capital screens will shape who gets to bid. The unusual 7% uplift on historic executed values could expand the field while keeping standards high.
 
3) BPCL’s Bina petchem expansion locks >48-inch fittings to proven suppliers and least-cost basket awards in BPREP
8BPCL has drawn hard lines on who can supply elbows, tees and reducers above 48 inches. The tender ties awards to a least-cost combination and withholds first payment until document verification. A selective EMD design could reshape who bids which line.

1) TPI for barytes sampling and dispatch witness awarded at ONGC Ahmedabad Asset
8ONGC has closed a fast, single-stage LCB for TPI oversight on barytes tied to a live supply NOA.
8The winning quotes are sharply separated despite coming from the same firm.
8The stack, sampling and de-bonding regime creates a high-assurance chain from Kadapa to consignee, but the pricing spread hints at internal lot or deliverable differentiation that bears scrutiny.
 
2) Pre-bid replies fix reimbursables and push spares and testing responsibility to contractors in ONGC Hazira ARC
8A sharp pre-bid has nailed down who pays for which inspection lines and who owns emergency readiness.
8Contractors got clarity on scaffolding, hydro-test gear and off-premise servicing, but not on mobilization notice.
8The 0.5% emergency stock and inspection-inclusive timelines could be where margins are won or lost.
 
3) Corrigendum digitises securities, hardens integrity-pact and preserves dual-manual QC at Juhu AFS
8ONGC has eased banking logistics but tightened enforcement on timelines and documentation.
8Contractors get clarity on refuellers, labs and future royalty pass-through, yet remain on the hook for aviation-critical equipment and stock loss control.
8The dual-manual QC stance signals owner-level oversight that bidders must price and staff for.
 
4) ONGC extends Assam pipeline ARC bid to 28 October
8The Assam ARC gets one more week.
8ONGC cites bidder requests even after declining early festival-time pleas.
8Pricing will now converge with the 18% IGST corrigendum baked in.
 
5) OIL’s Agartala 160 TPD MSW-CBG tender gets fourth deadline push to 28 October
8OIL has extended the bid closing and technical opening to 28 October 2025.
8The move follows prior shifts from 28 August to 26 September and then 13 October as specs and clarifications evolved.
8Behind the new date lie tightened FOM specs, softened ZLD language, and governance changes that alter bidder risk.
 
6) OIL extends new 200 TPD SSOF-MSW CBG tender after PQC recalibration
8OIL has pushed the bid closing and technical opening to 27 October 2025.
8Earlier changes trimmed O&M tenure for similar work and rebalanced turnover and working capital bars.
8The mix hints at a calibrated attempt to widen competition without loosening execution discipline.

8BPCL has opened a global licensor contest for a 7.3 MMTPA integrated hydroprocessing block with strict BS-VI and low-nitrogen outcomes. The tender embeds dual-train independence and an off-gas export rule that will shape reactor and heater design. BQC thresholds still favour a handful of global platforms.
