8EIL has extended the bid window even as it prepares a technical amendment on IFR loads and antistatic design. The move comes after multiple bidder queries sought precision on live-load, seal MOC and bonding philosophy. Whether this stabilises pricing or compresses execution buffers will be clear only post award. The package covers full EPC execution of multiple CS/AL tankages including IFR (aluminium and CS deck), DR and CR tanks with integrated fire protection, jet mixers, seals and drains, plus all inspection, calibration, and commissioning assistance.

8A mid-corridor tweak has shifted attention from price to performance cadence. The owner has rewritten the equipment clock and spelled out a 10G, MPLS-TP-anchored communications layer with mandatory OEM backing. The real story is how these quiet clauses will shape bidder selection and schedule risk.

HPRT electric generator package: Three bidders in the fray
8Find out what they are. Also, EIL has erased commercial loadings and issued the HPRT package on a strict zero-deviation basis. Bottom-line evaluation now shifts the contest to fully compliant, end-to-end pricing. Three pump majors are in; the real question is whose field-proven HPRT model converts into the best total-package economics.
Four of five bidders clear the turbine-overhaul technical gate in GAIL Pata plans
8GAIL has screened a specialised field for the Pata compressor drivers, and most passed the 20 MW overhaul bar. The gatekeeping is strict, the documentation stricter, and e-BG/SWIFT is now standard. What happens next will turn on scope bundling and how the no-RA, ITC-aware evaluation shapes final pricing.
RCO M&V audit narrows field to BEE-empanelled specialists in IOCL/Guwahati Refinery
8IOCL has taken RCO compliance mainstream with a refinery-grade audit that requires BEE-empanelled AEAs. Zero EMD lowers the door, but 100% payment post-final report and tight reporting SLAs keep the bar high. Four of ten bidders cleared technicals, pointing to a specialist-led contest.

Three-step bid extension puts schedule buffer into OEM interfaces for 220 kV GIS at PDH-PP Dahej
8EIL has pushed the bid due out to 18 September after two earlier extensions, without diluting the LSTK/no-PV stance. A commercial amendment tightens price-book hygiene while a rare performance-test clause hedges grid-power delays with an extra 10% BG and a deeming path. The combination resets timing but keeps risk where EIL wants it—on execution and completeness.
Date-only push to 11 September, tighter PMS and realistic regen norms for IOCL Digboi DM water package
8IOCL has moved the DM water package deadline four times while sharpening the technical playbook. The changes standardise piping classes, align the new MB with existing trains, and scrap a hard “one-month no regen” line. What that does to vendor scope, pricing confidence, and brownfield risk is the real story.
BPCL Kochi coalescer revamp tender extended twice despite no-extension clause
8BPCL’s polypropylene project coalescer revamp tender has been pushed out by 14 days. Two extensions were granted despite an initial warning that no extension was envisaged. The move signals bidder compliance hurdles and raises questions over schedule discipline. Other Kochi tenders have also slipped despite tough stance language. This points to a systemic issue with bidder preparedness and compliance demands. Unless addressed, slippages may cascade across the polypropylene and PFCCU revamp project.
Bid window pushed by a week for marine survey services around IOCL’s Haldia Refinery Terminal
8IOCL has granted a one-week extension for its 3-year marine survey tender at Haldia. The scope spans tanker, barge, PLT, rake and STS operations with full loss/gain accountability. The securities and validity remain unchanged even as the bid clock moves.
Bid window extended for CPP shutdown package; scope and terms unchanged in IOCL’s Paradip Refinery
8IOCL has extended the CPP shutdown tender timeline without altering scope, PQC, or securities. The notice pushes bidders back to the portal for the precise dates. That suggests competition housekeeping rather than a structural reset.
BPCL BPREP pump tender slips to mid-September as EIL holds zero-deviation line on MR
8The pump package deadline has been pushed, but the technical goalposts have not moved. Bidders asked for orientation and pressure flexibility; the client repeated “follow MR.” That mix points to broader participation—if vendors can comply without design shortcuts.

Titan Blasters undercuts rivals to win BPCL Kochi scaffolding contract
8BPCL’s Kochi turnaround scaffolding contract saw a razor-thin 0.7% spread between Titan Blasters and Brec Projects. The absence of a PBG clause eased liquidity stress for bidders. Yet a two-times price spread across the table signals volatile risk perceptions.
Sievert undercuts field in LRUT screening job in IOCL Guwahati Refinery
8IOCL has closed LRUT screening for offsite piping at Guwahati with a wide price spread. The winning bid sits 24.6% below L2, pointing to sharp undercutting in a niche NDT market. A contract-duration inconsistency in the pack could become the real story unless fixed in the LoA.
Energy Solutions bags APPS/LDS augmentation for Mahul–Rasayani pipeline of BPCL
8BPCL has awarded the APPS/LDS augmentation to Energy Solutions International. Behind the numbers lies a tougher security and delivery regime, including an extra 20% supply BG until SAT plus a 30-day trial. The bottom-line evaluation and PPP-MII gating quietly shape who can really compete.
CPCL Vision 2035 strategy mandate sees L1 under QCBS; price gap to L3 at 672.0%.
8A limited, NIL-deviation tender for CPCL’s Vision 2035 drew three commercial quotes with an extraordinary spread. QCBS weighting insulated quality, but L1’s aggressive number still shapes the combined outcome. The story behind the pricing and the clauses that will govern delivery sit behind the wall.
Chaudhary Enterprises wins heavy-equipment ARC at Paradip with 30–114% gap to peers — IOCL Paradip Refinery
8RA-enabled, no-split GeM bidding for Paradip’s heavy-equipment ARC has produced a clear L1. The wide premium band up to +113.6% hints at fleet depth and compliance-overhead asymmetries. IOCL’s clauses shift utilisation and certification risk squarely to the vendor.

8There was a razor-thin 2.2% gap between L1 and L2 but a 45.9% spread to the tail.
8Corrigenda tightened clocks and simplified monthly quantum, shifting the onus onto clean execution.
8Whether Advent’s price holds against explosive logistics and monsoon-season drift will define margins on this block.

High-throughput LMP with four-line jetty transfer and strict uptime pricing lands on GeM
8This mud-plant tender demands a 6,500 bbl facility with four dedicated transfer lines into a private terminal.
8Mobilisation, LD, and NPD clauses tighten schedule and uptime accountability while measurement systems lock down custody.
8The money moves fast on undisputed bills, but the guarantee tenor and firm pricing will test bidder balance sheets.

8The price logic blends lump-sum base charges with per-call operations and fixed adders that will decide margins.
Oil India awards Mahanadi Basin G&G consultancy to GERMI
8Oil India’s Mahanadi Basin study saw Gujarat Energy Research and Management Institute clinch L1 at a steep discount to global majors.
8The award underscores a tilt towards cost-efficient domestic players despite data complexity.
8Whether GERMI can deliver to OIL’s strict QC standards remains the critical question.
OIL revises HWU–snubbing unit tender with broader BRC paths and a quantified option clause

Prabha extends CBM RoU tender deadline
8Prabha Energy has pushed the bid cut-off by 14 days on its RoU tender for NK-CBM-2001/1.
8The shift is calibrated to a permit-heavy scope where cadastral and crossing dossiers drive price credibility.
8Whether the extra runway widens competition or merely resets calendars will show up at opening.

8The price tag for this innovative chemical plant has been pegged at a whopping Rs 12,000 crore
8And it is under active bidding
But many believe that the actual price will turn out to be much more

BPCL's Andhra refinery is surrounded by several reserve forests, the closest is just 50 meters away
8Even so the first step towards clearance has already been taken

8This is an abrupt change

Rs 5 crore compensation packages for top brass is rare in small private E&P companies.
