8The base line is ammonia and methanol, and value aded products susbequently

8A limited tender to revamp the Bina hydrocracker for LOBS introduces a hard “no cost/time overrun” line and an unusual lubricant-equivalence mandate. The execution and warranty math could shift materially once bidders test these clauses at pre-bid. The tender requires OEMs to permit or help qualify BPCL lubricants that meet performance specifications. That changes the usual OEM-only warranty model. Watch how licensors and rotating-equipment OEMs respond in pre-bid.

8GAIL is empanelling three consultants per category, but only after forcing everyone to the L1 rate. The documents quietly pre-assign how many cases each category will see, with CBG and pipelines topping the list. Two conflicting pre-bid dates and a BEC mismatch could change the ground rules.

8Pre-bid replies show ONGC holding the line on uniform rentals, CIS caps, and penalty stacks despite sweeping bidder pushback.
8The amended SOW/SCC recode logistics and interoperability requirements without easing qualifications.
8With a two-week date relief, the contest shifts from price invention to delivery proof.

8Bidders sought relief on pumps, mixers and swing nozzle specifications, but EIL refused to shift scope. The client’s stance points to a deliberate tightening of contractor obligations. Whether this shapes future petrochemical tankage packages is the bigger question.

8The promoter ended the process citing non-qualification of all four bidders at TA-CA stage.
8This keeps technical integrity ahead of schedule pressure.
8Expect a fresh round only after internal sign-offs.

8PNGRB has pushed the submission deadline by almost a month while diluting pre-qualification norms. Bidders now get a 15-year experience window and consortium participation rights. The changes signal low initial response and PNGRB’s urgency to secure global expertise.

Enclosed ground flare package hardens schedule and HSE guardrails in SunPetro’s Bhaskar-I
8SunPetro’s Bhaskar-I flare tender pairs a 2,00,000 SCMD enclosed ground flare with unusually tight delay remedies.
8The document layers week-on-week LDs with waiting-rate damages and a payment freeze to police schedule risk.
8But the payoff sits in the fine print—where acceptance artefacts, local workshop expectations and brand-new-only sourcing could reshape the bidder set.
Insurance surety flexibility meets hard EMD gate in ONGC’s Shertha CBHP O&M in Ahmedabad Asset
8ONGC’s Shertha CBHP tender blends modern security instruments with a firm stance on bid discipline.
8The move to post-bid clarifications and a strict BEC matrix could reshape bidder behavior.
8But the denial of MSE EMD exemption raises the bar on who can play.
ONGC Assam rig health check-up tender sees mixed bidder outcomes in qualification stage
8Three firms — Apave, Enerconnect, and OMCI Rig Services — cleared qualification, while Kamaiah Engineering Services was disqualified.
8The disqualification signals ONGC’s strict enforcement of bid evaluation criteria.
8The qualified pool blends international QC firms with local specialists, shaping a competitive but compliance-driven field.
ONGC Gujarat Pipavav Port Limited liquid mud plant tender resets pre-bid and mandates integrity pact
ONGC’s latest corrigenda tighten governance and clarify design inputs for the GPPL liquid mud plant.
8The pre-bid timing is reset and a signed integrity pact is now compulsory, while complete soil data is released under the SLA.
8The moves cut foundation risk but raise the compliance bar for bidders.

Deadline pushed to 22 September 2025 but PQCs stay tight in Cairn MBA ASP surfactant EoI
8Cairn has extended the surfactant EoI but left its technical and financial gates unchanged.
8That combination could expand credible participation without compromising ASP performance at MBA.
8The real test is whether suppliers can evidence end-to-end quality for industrial blends across outsourced steps.
Two-week push to 30 September resets bid opening to 1 October for logging and TCP-DST tender
8ONGC has pushed the logging and TCP-DST tender by two weeks, moving submission to 30 September and opening to 1 October.
8The scope spans slim-hole compact logging up to 5,500 m and HPHT TCP-DST with tight turnaround and safety requirements.
8Nothing else changes — which keeps qualification bars high and leaves bidder strategy to do the heavy lifting.
Fourth extension moves ONGC digital SI empanelment to 18–19 September
8ONGC has granted a final three-day extension to close on 18 September with opening on 19 September.
8The shift preserves a strict QBS/TPIA-verified gate while leaving scope, ITB and BEC intact.
8With EMD waived and evidence heavy, the extra time could change who qualifies—without changing the rules.
Extension of Oil India snubbing unit tender to 03 October 2025
8Oil India has again shifted the bid submission timeline, this time to 03 October 2025.
8The earlier extensions had already stretched the window to mid-September, but the latest notice signals continued pressure from bidders around compliance documentation.
8With PQCs still frozen against the original cut-off date, the new extension helps logistics but does not expand the qualification pool.

PLL tightens IP and acceptance controls in 220 kv GIS package for PDH-PP complex at Dahej
8Key IP and licensing clauses have been rewritten to concentrate control with the Owner. Attempts to dilute acceptance and change-order leverage were pushed back. The net effect reshapes risk, cashflow timing, and bidder behaviour on this high-stakes power package.
Corrigendum tightens HDD, CP and heat-tracing interfaces in DR 1.0 pipeline package at IOCL Digboi.
8IOCL has clarified who supplies, who installs and where HDD casing gets paid. The changes compress variation risk and improve cash conversion on pipe supplies. But the toughest execution choices still sit with bidders in route engineering and submerged multi-line corridors.
BPCL pushes two-stage H2 membrane engineering on GeM, extends bid to 22 Sep with tighter ATC and TPIA guardrails
8A hydrogen membrane study at Kochi just gained two extra weeks—and stricter paperwork. BPCL has locked in longer bid validity, a ±25% option clause, and mandatory TPIA verification. The consultant’s stopwatch-style SLAs could decide margins more than hourly rates.
IOCL pushes UPS bid to 25 September without shifting execution clocks in Digboi refinery 1.0 expansion
8IOCL has issued a date-only extension for the Digboi UPS package. The submission now closes on 25 September with opening on 26 September, while delivery, securities, and evaluation stay constant. The technical bar—Ni-Cd autonomy, ISA-G3 electronics, and THD limits—still decides who plays.
Two-step date push takes IOCL Panipat PP catalyst tender to 22 September
8IOCL has pushed the PP catalyst bid calendar twice, landing on 22 September after an 8 September start point. The PDFs keep the clauses intact and defer the operative timestamps to the portal, hinting at a calendar-only realignment. What forced two weekly nudges, and how does it change bidder calculus and RA tension?

Second extension pushes HPCL LMBU LCWS pump bid to 25 Sep as EIL locks Rev-B specs and zero-tolerance power guarantees
8The LCWS package just moved again, with price opening gated behind a stricter performance regime. Technical Amendment-1 swaps in Rev-B specs and data sheets, and forces guaranteed shaft-power with zero positive tolerance. Domestic-only bidding remains, but the real contest is now efficiency, not paperwork.
Seven-day bid extension, L1 stance intact for CAMS digitalization in BPCL
8BPCL has shifted the CAMS bid date by a week while keeping selection firmly on an L1 basis. Vendors asked for QCBS and quarterly CAMC payouts but found little room for change. The fine print on integrations may matter more than the extra days.
HPCL extends consultancy tender for assessment centres to 22 September after corrigenda tighten compliance
8HPCL has pushed back the closing date for its assessment centre consultancy tender to 22 September, following multiple corrigenda. The changes clarify quoting formats, reinforce strict separation of technical and financial submissions, and reaffirm penalty regimes. The extension underscores both bidder compliance challenges and HPCL’s insistence on tight delivery controls.
GSPL’s PMC ARC bid date pushed by a week to 22 September for small-connectivity projects
8GSPL has moved the bid due date to 22 September for its two-year PMC rate contract capped at Rs 2 crore. The shift could expand the qualified bidder set and sharpen reverse-auction outcomes. But unless openings are rescheduled, bid-scrutiny could be squeezed on the same day.

Petronet LNG pre-tender meet set for compressor package at Dahej PDH-PP plant
8Petronet LNG has called vendors to a pre-tender dialogue on a critical reciprocating gas compressor package for its Dahej PDH-PP complex. The scope spans API 618-compliant units with stringent technical and financial filters. But the compressed delivery timeline and operational flexibility demand raise fresh questions for contractors. Vendors are being asked to meet stringent API 618 standards in a high-pressure, fuel gas service application. The scope spans design to commissioning with non-lubricated cylinder specification. Such demands narrow the field to technically credible OEMs.
Pre-tender meet announced for DG set package at Dahej PDH-PP project
8Petronet LNG has called a pre-tender meeting for its Dahej petrochemical DG package. Engineers India is steering a technical alignment exercise before the formal bid. The scope and qualification requirements already hint at high entry barriers.
Granular pay ladders, formal change routes, and idle-time cover set the tone for the Pali Jodhpur spurline
8This pipeline tender hard-wires cash to measurable field and documentation milestones. Change-order and waiver templates formalise every deviation’s time, cost and guarantee effects. An explicit idle-time preservation line hints at a promoter intent on schedule discipline and liquidity balance.
HPCL launches bundled HIRA tender across 12 aviation service facilities
8HPCLhas rolled out a consolidated tender to conduct hazard identification and risk assessments at 12 aviation service facilities. The move brings multi-site HSE governance into one package, but also raises bidder compliance burdens. Reverse auction pressures and stricter PQC could reshape participation dynamics.
HPCL’s Visakh Refinery clubs VR and VRMP shift instrumentation services into a single RA-enabled GeM bid with a 31-month ePBG
8HPCL has rolled out a consolidated instrumentation maintenance package covering both VRMP and legacy VR units. The bid pushes a two-packet, RA-enabled model with tight compliance and a striking 31-month ePBG. Whether KPIs, manpower minima, and the security tenor get clarified at pre-bid could shape participation and pricing.

Ten firms line up for GAIL’s two-year CP integrity ARC across DUPL/DPPL
8A crowded technical opening puts pressure on margins for GAIL’s CP ARC split across DUPL and DPPL. The SOW’s NACE-anchored surveys, GPS-stamped logging, and penalty-backed reporting will reward disciplined operators. But the real edge may lie in how quickly bidders can close CP anomalies under Part-B without derailing uptime.
Only Mecon clears HPCL’s technical gate for Vashi–NMIA ATF pipeline EPMC
8Four bidders showed up for HPCL’s EPMC, but only one made the technical cut. The bar was set around aviation-grade pipeline experience, tight documents, and full-stack integration. The commercial round will now test pricing power in a one-horse race.

Xplorer undercuts estimate by 47.3% to win BPCL AP refinery topography survey
8A five-way limited contest at Ramayapattnam saw Xplorer land L1 at barely half the owner estimate. EIL kept the commercial frame tight: no EMD, firm price, GST-loaded evaluation and a 3-month finish. The pricing spread hints at either efficiency or risk-taking — and the delivery window will tell which.

Hubert Enviro wins IOCL Guwahati Refinery EIA–RRA NG facility study, L2 trails by 112.9%
8A two-horse race ended with a deep price gap and a surprise dip below the refinery’s internal SOR. IOCL kept the bar high on accreditation and pushed a cash-intensive payment profile. The combination reshaped who could bid—and how they priced risk.
RPTU mechanical works awarded with 7.8% L2 gap amid tight EPCM controls
8NRL’s RPTU mechanical package closed with a clear L1 and a sizable 35.0% tail. Behind the number is a documentation-heavy execution model that few fabricators can run efficiently. The spread hints at where margins—and risks—will settle on similar NREP works.

8ONGC wants inspectors to do more than tick API boxes — they must state which API standards were enforced and prove every critical serial.
8The rigs must be certified “new and unused,” with NDT thresholds tightened for equipment older than a year.
8A 30-month performance bank guarantee on a two-year contract hints at how hard the buyer plans to hold the line.

NDA-gated stainless pressure vessels for PDH-PP at Dahej move under zero-deviation, 11-month delivery
8EIL has opened a limited, zero-deviation RFQ for stainless-steel pressure vessels tied to PLL’s PDH-PP build. An EMD waiver sits alongside ABG-backed early payments and a firm 11-month FOT site delivery. Bottom-line evaluation with NDA gating will test vendor discipline more than headline capacity. The BDS pins GAD at six weeks and FE/reporting at twelve, forcing early design maturity. That front-loads risk into plate/forging awards due by week eight. Slippage here cascades into NDE/PWHT and dispatch.
PLL’s PDH-PP vessels retender resets clock by two weeks without relaxing zero-deviation in Dahej PDH-PP project
8EIL has re-timed the PDH-PP vessel package while keeping its zero-deviation spine intact. The move preserves competition yet holds the line on integrity pact, land-border forms, and basketwise evaluation. The catch is in the details: an EMD waiver in the RFQ table and unforgiving BoQ discipline.

8IOCL’s WRPL Songadh daytime ROW security package delivered a rare three-way L1 tie. The numbers point to DGR-driven wage parity rather than aggressive undercutting. But the security-deposit treatment in the NIT quietly departs from IOCL’s usual playbook.
