Why are two Chinese companies listed for this Rs 10,000 crore plus project? 8The rule book does not allow that, but how does it work? Click on Details for moreDetails
1) Bid window extended to 30 October for 2000 kVA transformer package in ONGC Sivasagar Sub-station-4 8ONGC has pushed the bid deadline by 14 days without altering securities or evaluation mechanics. 8The technically stringent IS 1180/IS 2026 package remains intact, with heavy testing and QA obligations. 8The extra time could change who shows up, but not the quality bar they must clear.
2) Bid deadline moved to 22 October for crude-tanker hiring, scope and securities unchanged in ONGC Assam Asset 8ONGC has added seven days to the bid clock without touching PQC, securities or the technical regimen. 8A parallel tweak in the ITB now pegs List-33 concessional imports to 18% IGST, with a merit-rate caveat. 8The timetable relief may widen the vendor pool, but operational controls and pricing discipline still set the tone.
3) Oil India tender for 45-ton crane hire pushed to 24 Oct as MSE rules tightened 8OIL has extended its five-crane hire bid by ten days after revising local-content and MSE clauses. 8The corrigendum adds auditor-backed certification and formal price-preference sequencing under DPIIT rules. 8The pause signals an audit-driven cleanup of GeM-based service procurement ahead of contract finalisation.
4) SunPetro Bhaskar-I RTMCS tender pushed to 17 October after six technical bulletins 8Sun Petrochemicals has extended its Bhaskar-I real-time monitoring system tender to 17 October 2025 following a string of technical clarifications. 8The latest addenda tighten specifications on UPS, RTD, and flow meter integration, prompting vendors to re-work quotes. 8The extension highlights mounting interface complexity in SunPetro’s digital-field rollout.
5) ONGC extends LTSOBM service tender for Rajahmundry to 27 October amid qualification tightness 8ONGC’s Mumbai procurement division has pushed its Rajahmundry LTSOBM service tender to 27 October 2025 — the seventh shift since July. 8The move reflects ongoing vendor deliberations over stringent experience and bonding conditions rather than scope revision. 8This extension cements the trend of prolonged fluid-service tenders as operators grapple with limited qualified pools.
1) Heavy disqualifications but four firms clear ONGC’s KPI-first bar for Nandasan GGS O&M 8ONGC softened tenure but hardened everything else. 8Capacity, KPIs and emergency readiness stayed non-negotiable. 8The firms that stay in now have to price uncertainty on diesel, deductions and 100% availability.
2) ONGC pushes bid deadline to 30 October and clarifies MPD responsibility without easing schedule teeth in ONGC DP drillship charter 8The window just widened, but the guardrails didn’t move. 8MPD must stay fully automated, seven-day installation stands, and downtime rules still bite. 8The supervision-vs-responsibility line is now sharper — and so is the competition.
3) ONGC tightens HCI–NAS tender with clause-specific tech edits and a formula-driven option clause in hiWON Basin IT resources upgrade 8The fine print just moved — and only the highlighted text now rules. 8Option-clause math gives ONGC a clean path to scale the order without price shocks. 8Compliance will hinge on reading the right version at the right place.
4) Bid due extended to 07 November 2025 for Bhaskar-1 high-pressure gas pipeline 8SunPetro has pushed the bid due by two weeks without softening securities or liquidated damages. 8The scope still demands a turnkey, piggable, Class 600 pipeline with CP and intelligent pigging. 8The added time may change who can bid credibly, but not the risk profile bidders must accept.
5) ONGC extends delivery timeline and links PBG to warranty period in drill pipe spinner tender 8ONGC’s amendment grants suppliers an extra ten weeks to deliver drill pipe spinners while tightening security coverage for post-delivery performance. 8The PBG now runs through the entire 12-month warranty period, signalling stronger quality enforcement. 8The change balances vendor lead-time realities with ONGC’s demand for longer-term assurance.
6) Bid submission extended to 16 October 2025 for rig-less WSO services in Sun Petrochemicals Bhaskar Field 8SunPetro has granted a one-day extension to its rig-less polymer-based water shut-off tender for Bhaskar Field. 8The shift, though minor, reflects tight vendor coordination around specialised chemical design and execution requirements. 8All technical and commercial terms remain unchanged, signalling discipline amid bidder feedback.
8The stakes are subsurface, not cosmetic. 8OIL wants Petrel-ready models and history-match discipline inside 45 weeks, with LDs to backstop it. 8The firms that survive QCBS now must win on modelling depth, not brochure gloss. Click on Details for moreDetails

1) Andhra University edges IIT Madras to win KG-PG subsidence study in ONGC Rajahmundry Asset 8ONGC has chosen Andhra University over IIT Madras for a five-year SAR/KGPS subsidence study in the KG-PG basin. 8The 6.5% price gap suggests closely matched technical approaches with different field and analytics cost loading. 8With ONGC providing GNSS hardware and the awardee carrying AMC and reporting cadence, execution discipline will decide the value curve.
2) AIMIL wins three-year drilling-rig condition monitoring at MBA Basin 8ONGC has picked AIMIL against a seven-bid field to run condition monitoring across two rigs. 8The top-three prices cluster within 10% while the long tail balloons past 100%, hinting at divergent instrument and mobilization assumptions. 8With non-escalation locked in and ISO-anchored analytics, execution discipline will determine uptime gains and vendor margins.
3) Galaxy Enterprise wins rig carrier piping, steering, paint and re-wiring package in ONGC WS, AMD Asset 8ONGC has picked Galaxy Enterprise to refurbish Rig ROM-50-IV’s pneumatics, steering, coatings and electricals under a two-month custom-bid package. 8The top-three bids sit within 4.2% of each other, signalling convergent execution assumptions and limited risk premia. 8With e-BG preference and a detail-heavy BoM, delivery discipline and parts staging will decide whether the workshop window holds.
4) Two bidders step in as ONGC seeks seal replacement at Tatipaka, but conflicting time and warranty terms await clarification in Tatipaka refinery 8Two firms have put their names in, but the documents tell a more complicated story. 8The same tender cites two different schedules and two different warranty horizons. 8What ONGC clarifies next will decide both pricing and field execution.
5) Four-firm field lines up for Shertha cement bulk plant O&M as ONGC tightens tax-concession and security instruments in Ahmedabad Asset 8The bid clock moved, but the rules got sharper. 8ONGC’s update on petroleum-operations concessions and insistence on e-BG primacy reshape compliance calculus more than pricing theatre. 8How the four participants navigate these clauses will decide who stays competitive after scrutiny.
6) Single-vendor Siemens bid advances ONGC’s three-year PLC spares rate contract after twin date extensions in ONGC/CREG Mumbai 8The RC is architected for uptime, not price theatre. 8ONGC extended dates twice but left every other clause untouched. 8The contest now is the discount to the Siemens list and how quickly defects get rectified in the field.
1) SITC of 2×10T EOT cranes locked to 100% local-content, long PBG, and no-advance regime in ONGC Nhava 8ONGC has released a two-bid SITC tender for two 10T EOT cranes at Nhava with Class-I-only eligibility and 100% local content. 8A 32-month PBG and no-advance terms shift liquidity and performance risk squarely onto the vendor. 8The technical gatekeeping via QAD/QAP and EIC acceptance could reshape who bids and how they price.
2) Short-tenure HOC hire tightens uptime and cost policing in ONGC Cambay 8ONGC’s 5-month, call-out HOC tender compresses mobilization to 15 days and hard-wires uptime with 1.2× LDs. 8Diesel is indexed to IOCL-Cambay rates across movement and pump-operation modes, curbing quote padding. 8With “new purchase” bids deleted, only ready or swiftly transferable/leased units are in play.
3) Emergency sectional wreck removal locked to claims-linked payout ONGC ATI Goa, SSTF “Samudra Shiksha” 8ONGC has called an emergency EOI to cut and clear the stranded SSTF barge at Betul within 30 days. 8The job runs on a “no cure no payment” basis with the second tranche tied to insurance or auction outcomes. 8A strict five-year, GT-based experience filter will likely narrow the bidder field to proven marine salvage houses.
4) Non-splittable 3LPE pipeline package tightens governance and mobilisation in Oil India, Dhakuwal–Makum 8Oil India has put the Dhakuwal–Makum reach of its crude and gas pipeline out as a single, non-splittable package under a two-bid e-tender. 8A firm EMD, a 10% performance security, and Class-3 DSC rules hard-wire governance before price discovery. 8With mobilisation locked to 30 days and bid validity at 120 days, only Assam-ready EPCs with banking hygiene will be truly competitive.
5) Recon Engineering wins valve servicing package amid 5.3× bid spread in ONGC Rajahmundry 8A non-splittable, API 598-anchored scope and “no pay for un-serviced valves” set a hard risk line before price discovery. 8The award goes to Recon Engineering with a deep undercut while L2 trails at +80.8% and the tail stretches to +425.3%. 8The spread suggests aggressive risk absorption by L1 and a recalibration challenge for the rest.
6) KSB undercuts OEM to win PS6 pump AMC in Oil India PS6 Bongaigaon 8KSB has edged Sulzer to land Oil India’s three-year AMC for PS6 mainline pumps at Bongaigaon. 8The bid gap of 26.1% hints at divergent risk loading across VFD/PLC stewardship, response SLAs, and penalty exposure. 8A recent PQC pivot on drive-partner credentials and owner-retained spares will shape execution dynamics.
1) New Field wins ejector package amid wide spread in BPCL polypropylene project, Kochi refinery 8BPCL’s polypropylene project at Kochi has closed a limited-enquiry ejector package with a striking three-way price dispersion. EIL kept the guardrails tight — zero-deviation, integrity pact, PPP-MII, and a six-month FOT-site delivery. The winning price sets a low anchor against a high-end outlier, and the implications go beyond this line item.
2) Four-way L1 tie at IOCL Panipat sulphur pelletizer O&M under GeM floor-price regime in Panipat P-25 SRU 8IOCL’s sulphur pelletizer O&M on GeM closed with four identical L1 quotes and a penalty-heavy scope. The SOR’s fixed/variable split and wage pass-through left little pricing headroom, forcing convergence. The award hinges on GeM’s random tie-breaker and how vendors plan to manage trip-risk inside a 1,100 TPD unit.
8A decisive L1–L2 spread emerged in PLL’s bagging & palletising award. EIL held the line on risk clauses while nudging EMD logistics to ease foreign participation. The warehouse-ready labelling/RFID stance may now shape future polymer packaging MRs. Click on Details for more

1) IOCL Gujarat Refinery tightens CBM discipline with penalty-backed, data-handover ARC under LUPECH in Gujarat Refinery 8A two-year ARC for vibration monitoring at LUPECH folds in ISO-anchored dashboards, strict mobilization, and refinery-grade safety. The contractor must leave behind licensed software and full datasets while absorbing penalties for delays and even faulty recommendations. MII and PQC filters will shape a narrow bidder pool with refinery-class experience.
2) BPCL Kandla LPG import pipeline surveys tighten schedule with 1.5% free re-routing buffer and no-EMD GeM play 8BPCL has put its Kandla jetty-to-terminal and terminal-to-pipeline surveys on a fast, 90-day leash with dense technical outputs. The GeM construct strips out EMD/PBG and leans on staged payments and S-curve governance. The fine print on re-routing and EIC controls could decide who really carries the time risk.
3) Deep retrofit brief demands API/OISD-grade tank audits and CAD baselines for IOCL Mathura refinery 8Mathura wants more than drawings; it wants code-valid tanks with actionable fixes. The brief hard-codes API-650/2000, OISD-116/118, and IS 1893 into deliverables, plus per-tank safety and dyke audits. Reverse auction and staged approvals will decide who can turn field measurements into executable designs.
4) Throughput-first revamp sets 100-trucks/shift target at Mazgaon lube plant for HPCL 8HPCL has opened a two-packet consultancy tender to re-platform its Mazgaon lube plant around a new consolidated gantry and pump house. The brief hard-codes a 100-trucks-per-shift design point, future-proofed for 16 base-oil grades, with PLC/SCADA integration to TFMS/SAP. A 24-month schedule, 27-month ePBG and penalties for design errors sharpen contractor risk.
5) Tight NIIP-gated EPCM with RA and strict wage-escalation rules for IOCL Barauni refinery Ganga water intake facility 8IOCL has issued a 33-month EPCM mandate for the Barauni refinery’s Ganga water intake with a hard NIIP gate. Reverse auction, class-1 MII, and long ePBG will compress margins even as a prescriptive wage-escalation formula curbs claim overhangs. The feasibility schedule is tight and the construction window is unforgiving—what does that do to bidder strategy and delivery risk?
6) Eight-district consent push puts schedule risk on vendor, milestone cashflow on hold in BPCL IDPL Sankari TOP 8BPCL has carved the TNPCB consent job into four gates across eight districts and a nodal office, with the largest payout tied to the final consent. Item-wise LD and a 10% security deposit sit behind the timelines. The extension window exists, but the rates do not move.
7) Milestone-only land acquisition mandate set on a two-month clock 8BPCL wants the IDPL land in Tamil Nadu acquired on a compressed schedule with cash released only on statutory milestones. A dual termination architecture and GCC-level LDs tighten the screws on delivery. But precedence and certification mechanics will decide whether bidders price in risk—or stay out.
1) Third push to 30 October tightens vendor prep but delays price discovery in BPCL BPREP compressor 8BPCL’s BPREP compressor tender has now moved through three successive extensions to 30 October. Nothing else changes on zero-deviation, EMD and evaluation, but bidders get a longer runway to lock PTR and SFMS. Whether the extra time broadens competition or just shifts risk will show up at price opening.
2) Two-step deadline push aims to widen niche OEM field for ammonia-water expander in IOCL Paradip Refinery 8IOCL has moved the EoI submission out by eleven days for its ammonia-water expander at Paradip. The base design remains two-stage with re-heat, but bidders are invited to propose optimised alternatives. The shift hints at a tight vendor universe and a desire for deeper technical dossiers.
3) Two-step date extension pushes Pre-heater bid in MRPL Hydrogen II Unit 8MRPL has nudged the GeM deadline for its Hydrogen II Unit air pre-heater package — twice. Nothing else in the risk, security or qualification stack has moved. The extra 10 days could change who shows up and at what price.
4) BPCL’s bina terminal O&M bid gets a one-week extension, with selective clause softeners on RCA/AMC logistics in BPCL BDT 8BPCL has pushed the timeline while freezing its toughest operating expectations at BDT. A handful of bidder-led tweaks on failure analysis, AMC sequencing and offsite logistics are slated for corrigendum. The loss and demurrage guardrails, however, stay put.
5) GAIL Visakhapatnam PMC for 6.6 kV DG set bid gets 12-day extension 8GAIL’s PMC tender for a 6.6 kV DG-set at Visakhapatnam has been pushed out by nearly two weeks. The move keeps QCBS and BEC intact but gives bidders more time to assemble capacity-linked credentials and staffing proofs. We break down what changed, who gains, and where to watch the fine print.
6) Annexure-1 narrows scope and GeM price rules harden evaluation for PRFCC consultancy in BPCL Mumbai Refinery 8BPCL has published the pre-bid minutes and a corrective annexure that locks down the stress-analysis lines for PRFCC pre-project jobs. Alongside, buyer-added ATCs on GeM tighten price discipline and precedence. The mix changes how bidders must quote, but it also hints at BPCL’s risk-transfer posture.
Sole technical bid for GPR recirculation compressor package arrives under tight PTR and PPP-MII gates in IOCL Paradip PP Line-2 8IOCL has opened the technical bid for the GPR recirculation compressor at Paradip with only one OEM in the fray. PTR and Class-I PPP-MII filters, paired with a hard NDA gate, appear to have narrowed the field. The delivery-is-essence clause now shifts pressure onto build schedules and component lead times.

8IOCL’s five-year DMDS EOI arrives with zero EMD and a tight technical envelope. But a corrigendum slashes the headline quantity by 90%, creating a glaring mismatch with the notice. Will the pre-bid settle scope or widen uncertainty into the formal tender? Click on Details for more

8The licensor playbook is out for BPCL’s 265 KTPA Cumene line into phenol. Dates are tight, the EMD is unforgiving, and run-proven references are non-negotiable. The technical bar now hinges on energy, yield, and single-train availability. Three sections define the heart of the unit: alkylation, trans-alkylation, and deep fractionation. The unit must deliver ≥99.95 wt% product to feed phenol. Battery-limit definitions and OSBL utility interfaces keep scope clarity high. Click on Details for more

8BPCL has invited bids to partially replace the third-bed catalyst in NHGU reactor 133-R-302A under inert conditions. The scope is licensor-supervised with dense/sock loading, live video, and strict drum traceability, but price evaluation is locked to GeM’s total. Two conflicting execution windows and differing security constructs could shape both participation and pricing. Click on Details for more
