1) HPCL CO2 pilot PLC tender tightens QA gates, drops MII preference for HPGRDC Bengaluru 8HPCLl’s R&D tender for a PLC/HMI-SCADA package pushes refinery-grade QA into a pilot-scale asset. The bid skips MII preference under a ministry-backed carve-out but keeps full MSE-OEM leeway.The long PBG window and heavy VDRL/ITP sequencing will test vendor readiness before price.
2) Desuperheaters go to market under zero-deviation regime 8Petronet LNG’s Dahej PDH-PP moves desuperheaters on a tightly scripted, zero-deviation RFQ. EMD and reverse auction are off the table, but IBR/radiography and dual-strainer scope raise the technical bar. Bottom-line evaluation with firm delivery windows compresses bidder manoeuvre room.
1) GAIL Vizag DG-set PMC bid extended to 7 Nov 8GAIL has pushed the bid deadline for its DG-set PMC at Visakhapatnam to 7 November. The two-step extension follows a rigorous QCBS 80:20 framework and evidence-heavy BEC. The scope and securities are unchanged, keeping evaluation philosophy intact.
2) Deadline pushed to 04 Nov for SAF licensor 8BPCL has extended its Kochi SAF licensor bid twice, from 24 Oct to 04 Nov. The GeM ATC also sets offer validity at nine months, overriding the 180-day portal field. With EMD at Rs 20,00,000 and a 5% ePBG for 27 months, the risk framework stays firm.
3) Bid date pushed to 10 Nov for centrifugal compressors in BPCL Bina BPREP 8EIL has moved the submission window by fourteen days for BPCL’s Bina petchem compressor package. The original 27 Oct deadline is now 10 Nov, with scope and PQCs unchanged. Expect cleaner compliance packs rather than softer terms.
4) Bid end pushed to 31 October for instrumentation services in MRPL aromatic complex 8MRPL has granted a second extension for its aromatic complex instrumentation services tender. The close moves from 16 October to 28 October and now to 31 October, widening the runway by 15 days. The structure and risk splits remain, keeping Part-A wage exposure squarely on the bidder.
1) EIL extends BPCL Kochi Polypropylene pump bid deadline to 4 Nov 2025 8EIL has moved the bid submission deadline for BPCL’s Kochi Polypropylene Project — LCWS pump package — from 27 Oct to 04 Nov 2025. The eight-day reprieve follows pre-bid clarification and portal registration delays. Behind the minor shift lies a larger tension between tight confidentiality controls and vendor on-boarding speed.
2) Overtime clause deleted, SEZ pricing clause tightened in GMPL PTA plant. 8GMPL has struck clause 6.9 on extended-hours payments from its PTA assistance tender. Buyer-added ATC now locks zero-rated SEZ pricing and a ±25% option window. The cost-risk transfer is subtle but material for commissioning-phase manpower.
3) Barauni water intake consultancy date shift and scope tightening 8IOCL has formalised phase-gates and single-order continuity for the Barauni Ganga intake PMC. The original close was 29-10-2025, while the revised deadline to 05-11-2025 is not specified in the documents shared. The add-ons tilt schedule risk toward the consultant even as feasibility precision is raised.
4) Extension and clarifications reshape bid contours for market study in IOCL polyester industrial yarn derivatives 8The bid clock has been pushed from 30 October to 06 November, and IOCL has cleaned up key frictions. EMD is off the table and Appendix XIX is out, but the 25% option clause is firmly in. The bar on “similar work” remains high, keeping the field specialised.
5) IOCL Paradip RPC-CFBC EOI slides to 03 Nov after five weekly extensions 8The EOI for 2×300 TPH RPC-fired CFBC boilers at Paradip was moved from 15 September to 03 November. The first corrigendum reset the calendar, and five subsequent weekly extensions followed. The scope and BOO obligations remain unchanged — and demanding.
1) This PFCCU licensor hunt sets 18% propylene bar 8The refinery licensor tender hard-codes a petrochem-first PFCCU with an 18 wt% propylene target and a firm naphtha cap. The second, gasoline-maximizing mode preserves flexibility across product cycles. Thet dual-objective design will test licensors’ severity windows and prU integration quality. 8Recovery spans PFCCU LPG and 6,550 kg/h DCU LPG, feeding downstream PP. Polymer-grade specs make separation and hydrogen balance non-negotiable. Licensors’ prU schemes will be scrutinized for energy integration and off-gas handling. 8Catalyst lineage and commercial grass-root references are mandatory, with a 24-week BEDP clock.
2) Firm-price licensor race for HDPE unit tightens deliverables 8BPCL’s licensor bid for the Andhra Pradesh HDPE unit hard-locks firm prices and strict schedule acceptance. Catalyst metals are carved out to published indices, but base costs must stay fixed. A five-year improvements clause and RBI-rate NPV conversion reshape how bidders price and promise.
3) Cumene licensor: EMD cut; pre-bid moved 8BPCL has slashed the bid security and shifted the pre-bid window for its cumene licensor selection. The virtual remittance ID has also been corrected. The commercial gates are lower, but the qualification proofs remain.
4) Pre-bid rescheduled to 28 Oct, platform switched to webex in BPCL Andhra Pradesh phenol unit licensor selection 8BPCL and EIL have shifted the phenol unit licensor pre-bid to 28 October at 11:00 IST and moved it to Webex. Bid due and unpriced opening timelines remain unchanged. The small change could still alter how licensors frame guarantees and service envelopes.
Aerogel-GRP culvert insulation package awarded 8CPCL’s Manali refinery has closed its Phase-1 culvert steam-line insulation upgrade with a wide two-bid spread. The L1 price undercut the owner’s GeM estimate by nearly 12%. A UV-cured GRP cladding over ASTM-grade aerogel sets a tighter quality regime for future lots. Click on Details for more

8EIL opened technical bids for MRPL’s FO & IRT E&I package with six contenders. A technical amendment put the ABB switchboard GA on record while reserving deeper design identifiers for post-award. The BOQ shows heavy ABB/Schneider retrofits, MV/LV cabling and instrument works under tight OISD-192 controls. Click on Details for more

8BPCL has locked the feasibility at ±10% accuracy and kept adequacy checks squarely within the consultant’s remit. The scope is confined to Jawahar Dweep with no subsea or jetty changes, but routing and refinery MTOs still sit with the study. Fire-water is sea-water based, no flare is envisaged, and surge relief is a gap to solve. Click on Details for more

1) ARC to harden rig PCR electronics uptime without EMD in ONGC MBA Basin 8ONGC MBA Basin has floated a limited two-bid ARC to keep rig PCR AC/DC modules and PCB cards in fighting shape. 8EMD is deleted, but PBG and strict e-submission discipline remain. 8A tenure mismatch in the booklet could sway bid prices unless clarified.
2) Telemetry-policed CSS hire puts steam quality and move clocks into pay math in ONGC Mehsana 8ONGC wants a mobile steam-generator package that sustains ≥90% steam quality at 150 kg/cm² and 342 °C through nine CSS cycles. 8The contract wires hourly penalties, zero-charge windows, and RTMS LDs directly into operating day rates. 8Mobilization caps and 7-day move clocks now decide who can execute at scale.
3) Throughput-first ATC and tighter SOW wording sharpen yard delivery for SRP rods in ONGC Ahmedabad Asset 8ONGC has pared back scope language and hardened schedule/accountability for servicing 25,000 pulled-out sucker rods. 8The corrigendum drops explicit SMG replacement, fixes the 150-day delivery phrasing and overlays a weekly throughput floor with separate recoveries. 8The cash and security rails stay firm, pushing bidders to prove pace and paperwork, not just price.
4) Bid end moves to 11 November 2025; technical and compliance spine remains intact in Oil India Baghewala drilling services 8OIL has pushed the bid clock but not the bar. 8The curve-to-TD toolchain and call-out regimes remain as-is, with hard rules on vintage, calibration, and mobilisation. 8The extra days are for compliance depth, not scope dilution.

8ONGC has granted a second extension to the deepwater drillship tender while refusing to dilute technical and QCBS thresholds. 8MPD pricing rails and readiness rules stay tight, and the first well is clarified as non-MPD. 8The extra time is a window to sharpen bids, not a hint of softer specs.
