Massive tankage package out in Mumbai refinery’s LMBU expansion – 24 Jun 2025

Refiner’s latest tender covers 20 tanks, spanning over 1800 MT of steelwork, with complex scope involving heat tracing, mixers, and precision calibration.

No price variation clause found—raising red flags for long-duration bidders.

With heat tracing, calibration, and mixer installations bundled together, this is no ordinary tank job—compliance load is heavy upfront.

Bidders face material cost volatility risk as EIL remains silent on escalation protection in this long-duration tankage scope.

Flameproof panel supply comes with a triple certification burden—critical for timeline-sensitive delivery milestones.

Residual engineering is part of contractor’s scope, demanding in-house tank design expertise—not just assembly capabilities.
