8And clearly, there will be lot of business for vendors

8The Andhra refinery work has just begun
8So why are tenders getting cancelled already?

1) BPCL Nagpur AFS safety studies tighten to certification-linked payment
8BPCL has put its aviation fuelling station in Nagpur under a 30-day HAZOP/QRA/ERDMP sprint with site visits mandatory. Payment clears only after final ERDMP certification, shifting risk from securities to performance. The experience bar and licensed-software proof will shape who turns up and how sharply they price.
 
2) BPCL Kochi turnaround ARC hardwires HSE-ready process engineers across PDPP/IREP/Hydrotreater outages
8The refinery is buying engineer-hours that map directly to trays, catalysts and heater pigging rather than generic manpower. A 65% wage pass-through and dropout penalties push vendors to field stable, H?S-equipped teams. The TPIA gate and strict no-deviation stance compress the bidder pool — and the risk envelope.
 
3) EHT package tightens PQ screens and safety undertakings in IOCL Gujarat Refinery
8IOCL’s Gujarat Refinery has issued an EHT tender for the RCO and bitumen rundown lines with unusually explicit checklists. Experience evaluation is annualised and tax-inclusive, raising the bar for documentary evidence. HSE and PPE costs must be baked into bids, with penalties and holiday listing on the table.
 
4) Bid due pushed eight times to 14 Nov in HPCL LMBU IHCD+SDA EPCC
8HPCL’s LMBU IHCD+SDA package has been extended repeatedly on CPPP, now closing on 14 November. A new SOP-REV.1 file also hard-codes how bidders must submit guaranteed parameters in the priced folder. Both moves reshape the competition and the way utilities risk will be priced.
 
5) GAIL Pata APM bid pushed to 3 Nov after three extensions
8The APM package has slid from a 23 September close to an early November finish. Along the way, buyer ATCs added a 25% option clause and Corrigendum-2 reopened the foreign support route without equity linkage. The technical bar remains high, and the warranty load is heavier than most analytics buys.

1) BPREP analyser GC bid pushed to 10 November after four extensions
8BPCL’s Bina petchem-refinery analyser package will now close on 10 November, forty-seven days past the original plan. The scope aggregates 47 process GCs across nine shelters with long-tail maintenance. The calendar slip hints at a documentation-heavy field and tight proveness filters.
 
2) IOCL extends CBG empanelment EOIsubmission to 15 november
8The Corrigendum pushes the bid-submission deadline to 15 November 2025, 17:15 hrs. Bid fee and EMD remain nil, keeping the front door open but with strict PQCs intact. IOCL is signalling depth-building in its developer bench while reserving award discretion for later stages.
 
3) Bid date pushed by 14 days, LCWS pump package stays zero-deviation in Bina BPREP
8BPCL’s LCWS pump tender has been extended to 13 Nov 2025, adding two weeks to a tightly specified package. The scope and guardrails remain unchanged — Zero-Deviation, PPP-MII Class-I, Integrity Pact, and group-wise evaluation still frame the contest. Expect stronger, better-documented bids rather than softer terms.
 
4) BPCL Kochi naphthenic base oils EOI gets four-day extension
8BPCL has pushed the deadline on its naphthenic base oils EOI from 31 October to 4 November. The scope couples a 200 KTPA scheme and a 5 TPD pilot with unusual asks on fee waivers and royalty-sharing. The extension keeps competition alive without softening those terms.
 
5) Pre-bid replies via corrigendum reshape scope levers for biomass fuels in BPCL Bargarh 2G refinery
8BPCL has folded pre-bid clarifications into Corrigendum-1, tightening eligibility and codifying quantity flexibility. A single EMD, Class-I supplier gate, and a formula-based option clause now define the playing field. The RA-driven 70:30 split remains, but delivery risk shifts further to the vendor side.
 
6) Nine extensions push HDD bid to mid-Novemberin BPCL Mahul–Rasayani
8BPCL’s HDD package for the Mahul–Rasayani corridor has moved nine times from its original 15 July closure to 14 November. The credential bar and equipment proofs remain unchanged, even as the window widened by 122 days. The shift helps capacity-constrained HDD players, but it also tightens the post-award clock.
 
7) NRL Panchgram EPCM tender gets second date push; scope and risk contours tightened
8NRL has extended the Panchgram EPCM bid to 14 November after an initial move to 7 November. The corrigendum reshapes civil scope, fixes the HO four-month window, and holds the line on penalties and LD. Approvals, surveys, and ERDMP responsibilities are now crisply split between consultant and owner.
 
8) GGL 12 MW captive solar EPC pushed to 15 Nov after four extensions
8GGL has rolled the bid deadline for its 12 MW captive solar EPC to 15 November after four extensions. The package couples a 27-year land lease with 10-year O&M and long-tenor generation guarantees. DSM risk and dual bank guarantees raise the bar on bidder readiness.

1) ONGC Tripura PSRV/PSV servicing: nine participated, four qualify as PESO/NABL paperwork and schedule discipline shape the field.
8The valves are routine; the metrology is not.
8ONGC has fused OMR/OISD/API requirements with PESO/NABL documentation and tight LD clocks.
8That combination filtered the field to four serious contenders.
 
2) ONGC Rajahmundry LTSOBM: Financials can be standalone or consolidated, but never mixed
8Where standalone audits aren’t mandated, audited consolidated statements are acceptable.
8All parameters must be evidenced on a uniform basis for the assessed period.
8That keeps verification clean while admitting diverse corporate forms.
 
3) ONGC deepwater drillship charter: Bid date extended to 13 November; currency and PoA rules clarified without easing core terms.
8A week’s extension gives bidders breathing room, but the technical and commercial bar stays high.
8ONGC has tightened currency and signing-authority rules to prevent downstream disputes.
8The signal is process clarity, not scope dilution.
 
4) Gas compressor services: Bid discipline and fixes timing while locking scope to three assets
8The owner has codified scope to three priority sites and hardened bid discipline through BSD and longer EMD validity.
8The technical bar remains high with OEM/TPI artefacts, leaving performance risk squarely with the contractor.

1) PNGRB shifts PRPL bid to 30 December, length to 650 km
8The PRPL tender now closes on 30 December 2025 with technical opening on 5 January 2026. PNGRB’s corrigendum also raises the route length to 650 km and the minimum combined net worth to Rs 390 crore. The framework keeps capacity and bid structure unchanged while giving bidders time to recalibrate.
 
2) PNGRB pushes MAJPL to 600 km and extends bidding by 91 days
8A late-cycle corrigendum stretches the MAJPL corridor and the clock. Net-worth thresholds rise in lock-step with the longer alignment. The play now favors bidders that can remodel hydraulics and still deliver a sharp tariff.
 
3) Regulator pushes EPPL to 200 km and extends bid to 01 dec for Ennore–Puducherry LPG pipeline
8PNGRB has revised the Ennore–Puducherry LPG line length to 200 km and moved the deadline to 01 Dec 2025. Net-worth eligibility also rises to Rs 100 crore, with a new route map issued. The reset changes hydraulics, bidder gating, and filing timelines without altering the common-carrier construct.
 
4) Ennore–Gummidipoondi LPG pipeline deadline moved to 1 December
8PNGRB has extended the EGPL bid by 31 days and raised the minimum net worth threshold. The pipeline length is now fixed at 40 km with a revised route map attached. Technical bids open on 3 December, altering bidder sequencing and internal approvals.
 
5) PNGRB pushes Cherlapally–Nagpur LPG line to 550 km and extends bid to 30 Dec — Cherlapally–Nagpur LPG pipeline
8PNGRB has issued a late-cycle corrigendum that lengthens the Cherlapally–Nagpur LPG pipeline and resets submission to 30 December. The minimum combined net worth and application fee have been raised in tandem with the scope. Tariff math, bid bond and zero-deviation discipline remain intact — but bidders now face 60 days of re-baselining.

1) PNGRB extends and upsizes Shikrapur–Goa & Hubli LPG pipeline baseline
8Length goes from 508 km to 620 km and net worth jumps to Rs 372.0 crore. Bid timelines slide to 30 Jan 2026 for submissions and 03 Feb 2026 for technical opening. The changes reshape hydraulics, CAPEX and bidder eligibility — but not the service obligation.
 
2) PNGRB pushes GHPL bid to 30 Dec and renames corridor Jhansi–Sitarganj
8PNGRB has moved the GHPL bid deadline by 60 days and shifted the pipeline origin to Jhansi. The corridor now totals 605 km with a mandated spur to Gwalior and a higher net-worth bar. Technical opening is also reset to early January, hinting at a heavier bid-prep cycle.
 
3) PNGRB pushes Jalandhar–Jammu LPG pipeline bid to 30 jan with shorter 210 km route
8PNGRB has moved the JJPL calendar out by 91 days and trimmed the route to ~210 km. Capacity has been reset to 300 TMT and the Goindwal spur is out. A lower net-worth bar could widen the field, but bidders must now re-cut their DFR math.
 
4) Regulator pushes Devangonthi–KIA ATF pipeline bid a month, bars incumbent
8PNGRB has extended the Devangonthi–KIA ATF pipeline bid by 30 days to 04 Dec 2025. The regulator also ruled that the existing ATF pipeline operator to the airport cannot bid in this round. That shifts the field toward new entrants as route deviation and facility scope stay unchanged.

8The deep-water drillship tender gets a third calendar push, but the commercial spine stays intact.
8Closing and opening move to earlier afternoon slots, and security validity tightens.
8The signal is more time for quality, not a softer contract.

8The charter-rig tender slides by seven days, but the rules harden.
8A new bid-securing declaration and longer EMD buffer raise the compliance bar.
8With earlier cut-off hours and a shorter challenge window, only fully ready bidders stay in play.

1) Spec-verified sludge-to-oil recovery with tight haul radii and hard clocks in ONGC Cauvery Asset NRM GGS (custom-bid)
8ONGC is anchoring oily-sludge recovery to three measurable quality gates that decide acceptance.
8Bounded routing and a compressed 60-day/120-day schedule stack push disciplined plant sizing and shift planning.
8The payoff will depend on how daily reports and SCC-driven NPD sharpen execution on the ground.
 
2) Babulal Parihar takes LMP at GPPL with a low-delta win; deep spread to L3 signals divergent risk pricing — ONGC / liquid mud plant, CPD-Mumbai
8The winning price lands at Rs 27.34 crore against a tight 1.4% gap to L2, but L3 sits 81.6% higher.
8Mobilisation locked to 45 days and an 18% concession regime likely split vendor strategies.
8The real test is whether the shore-to-jetty transfer design holds uptime once monsoon and heavy brines hit.
 
3) Tight local finish with a 32.8% L2 gap seals the GRP-GRE pipeline rate contract in ONGC / Ankleshwar Asset
8A two-bid finish handed J M Agarwalla & Co the GRP/GRE maintenance framework with a sizeable cushion to L2.
8ONGC’s 15-day mobilisation and GST-tight documentation likely shaped risk premiums.
8The real test is whether outage windows and monsoon constraints keep margins intact across the three-year span.
 
4) ONGC GDU-DPD hiring: Participated bidders push for downtime relief; ONGC holds line on maintenance, metering and termination flex
8Seven bidders are in, but the real negotiation happened in the clarifications.
8Attempts to widen maintenance windows and shift calibration costs hit a hard stop.
8With in-house GDUs signalled at select assets, pricing will now reflect redeployment risk.
 
5) Oil India tank sludge evacuation & inspection: Three bidders enter, one qualifies as HSE-heavy scope narrows the field
8A mechanized jet-cleaning plus UTM job sounds routine until you read the small print.
8Zero LEL acceptance, ASNT-certified mapping and hazardous-waste transport compliance tighten the screws.
8With only one qualifier from three, pricing power and risk posture could shift fast.

8But it had to this time around
