8NBA is up Rs 3/kg over the past month. Day-to-day moves were small, but the product sits close to its recent high

8Methylpropanediol advanced Rs 10/kg this week. Despite the rise, the product remains lower than the same period last year

8Mixed Xylene Isomer is higher than six months ago. The fortnight advance continued, though day-to-day swings narrowed compared with the prior week

8Monoethylene Glycol slipped Rs 1.75/kg over the past fortnight. Compared with six months ago, levels are modestly softer on a calm tape

8Methyl Methacrylate showed little change compared with three months ago. Weekly levels were flat, with muted intraday variation

8Mixed Xylene is up Rs 10/kg on the month. Day-to-day movement stayed contained, even as the product tracked close to the upper end of its recent range

8Agro-residue throughput drives the PMC bar for this CBG project
8Capacity thresholds at 69.2/86.5/138 TPD push bidders to show true agro-CBG depth.
8That screens for digestion, gas cleanup and compression know-how at meaningful scale.
8It is a deliberate filter rather than a generic EPCM badge.

8BPCL’s first amendment set tight technical guardrails on hydrogen and documentation for the 1,000 KTPA PP unit. A commercial tweak simultaneously lowers the foreign cash hurdle while hardening post-award verification. One more notice hints at extra time on the clock, but without new dates yet.

8GAIL has collapsed the DUPL-DPPL augmentation to a single construction spread and retuned the PMC staffing language. A revised integrity pact now sits in the bid forms, alongside a tax-compliance clause flagged for change. The 24-month commissioning clock and documentation rigour stay intact—and more demanding.

8One one vendor turned up

8GAIL has moved a limited, two-packet GeM empanelment to lock in financial appraisal capacity across pipelines, CBG, E&P, power, and process projects. Evaluation is schedule-wise with ITC-aware L1 discovery, rotation, and predefined case splits—minus EMD and ePBG. The bidder slate points to Big-Four plus capital-markets benches, but allocation leverage remains with the promoter.

8As there were no bidders

8BPCL’s Bina petchem and refinery expansion has locked in its brownfield DCS augmentation under EIL’s OEM-basis, zero-deviation framework. The award sits on milestone-heavy payments, PRS on group value, and a hard floor for site-work pricing. What that combination does to delivery risk and scope creep is where the story moves next.

1) Xplorer wins BPCL’s geotech and topo survey for CCKPL/IDPL augmentation
8A three-way contest narrowed quickly after one disqualification, leaving two qualified bidders with a stark price gap. The L1 award to Xplorer arrives against dense station and crossing scopes, including 48 shallow boreholes for in-service lowering. The documentation demands a full laboratory suite and tight QA loops that will test vendor throughput.
 
2) Arham wins slop-oil recovery job at NRL
8A refinery-experienced SME secured the award after two competitors fell at the qualification hurdle. The payment grid hard-codes a per-KL logic inside a lump sum, making delivery measurable at the fence. Updated integrity protocols and a 25% option window frame a compliance-heavy, continuity-first contract.
 
3) Paradip heavy-equipment ARC closes with razor-thin L1–L2 gap
8The addendum trimmed a key crane performance line while keeping the 90 m reach intact. Reverse auction and no mob/demob charges squeezed room for padding. The award outcome shows a two-horse finish and a long tail.
 
4) Asha Business Solution takes ISCC-CORSIA consultancy
8MRPL has closed a four-block GeM award for SAF certification support tied to ICAO/ISCC criteria. The L1 price is Rs 17.50 lakh with performance security fixed at 5% for 14 months. Milestones link cash to gap study, documentation/training, internal audit/MRM, and CB audit closure.

1) Five firms clear GAIL Vaghodia HAZOP & QRA technical evaluation under strict BEC filters
8GAIL’s Vaghodia safety-study tender screened fifteen bidders, qualifying only five after stringent documentation and dual-scope checks. The bid’s EMD waiver contrasts with tougher experience proof and foreign-support restrictions. A consolidated HAZOP + QRA framework signals GAIL’s move toward tighter, standardised risk-assessment contracting.
 
2) Only three firms clear GAIL’s technical filters for Dibiyapur HAZOP-QRA bid
8GAIL’s Dibiyapur compressor-station safety study drew thirteen participants but only three cleared the technical stage. Licensed-software compliance and cross-country pipeline experience proved decisive. The screening underlines tightening HSE norms even for short-tenure consultancy packages.

1) BPREP extension stretches to mid-November under bottom-line evaluation for DCS tender
8The bid clock moved from 20 August to 17 November through six notices. Commercial architecture—PPP-MII eligibility, integrity pact, EMD applicable—stayed unchanged in the cited pages. That combination signals schedule flexibility without diluting risk controls.
 
2) GAIL Pata APM bid pushes on-prem analytics with widened affiliate eligibility
8GAIL has kept APM deployment on-premise even as SAP sits in the cloud. Corrigendum #2 broadens affiliate eligibility and rewires payment milestones around measurable benefits. Extensions into November point to complexity and bidder pushback, but the architecture line largely holds.
 
3) Kochi refinery coker crane ops bid gains two-day extension; OEM-grade operator rules stay
8Kochi’s DCU crane-operation bid continues as a non-divisible, two-year GeM package with site visit completed. The GeM page shows an 8 November close while an extension to 10 November is indicated but not posted in the uploaded PDFs. Operator fitness tied to the OEM and emergency manning at no extra cost remain the key filters.

1) CCRU catalyst changeover tightened with parallel fronts and low-security bid in Panipat refinery
8IOCL Panipat has framed a shutdown job that leans on inert handling, sock loading, and hot bolting under a 24×7 parallel execution plan. The bid drops EMD and pares the PBG to 2.5%, even as an option clause preserves the owner’s flexibility on scope and time. A scaffolding split and long-tenure PBG stand out as points bidders will want clarified before pricing.
 
2) BPCL Mumbai refinery pipeline reroute tightens GeM-era controls in PRFCCU enabling package
8BPCL’s PRFCCU enabling tender pushes a hard nil-deviation regime while binding evaluation to the GeM-entered total. Running-unit tie-ins, hydrotest loop files, and pre-commissioning assistance transfer readiness and schedule discipline squarely onto the contractor. A 5% ePBG for 30 months and strict price-breakup rules signal more governance than negotiation.
 
3) Design duty fixes the rotary absorber’s performance window for this refinery
8Gas 1.5–2.5 T/hr, amine 18–20 T/hr, 11.6 bar(g)/half-vacuum, 85 °C set the mechanical envelope for shaft, seals, and bearings. Vendors must size rotors and distributors to these limits without inventing performance claims. Any departure will need documented analysis and owner approval at the GA stage. Mandatory FEM, modal and critical-speed work, plus ISO 1940 G 2.5 balance, drive the accept/reject at shop trials. This is where most low-cost bids will fail. Plan test time and correction loops into the bar chart.
 
4) Vertical VS6 pump package scope spans API 610 VS6 pumps with full accessories and field trials
8The package is end-to-end: engineering to field-trial acceptance with panels, instrumentation and spares. The sponsor points bidders to datasheets for any parameter variances. That places performance accountability on OEM design choices from day one.

8The prize is fewer non-responsive bids and a cleaner PGTR path.

1) Fishbones-based horizontal stimulation locks in KPI-driven execution and mobilization LDs in Baghewala PML
8OIL is codifying a Fishbones completion play in Rajasthan’s Jodhpur Sands with KPI gates and API-third-party inspection.
8The twist is a staggered call-out regime with mobilization LDs and a no-cost proprietary retrieval obligation.
8The real contest is who can model dissolution, assemble cleanly, and deliver acid programs without slipping schedules.
 
2) Reserve-price, H1-cascade and 7-day value EMD frame ONGC’s Odalarevu condensate sale
8ONGC is selling Odalarevu condensate off an indexed floor that starts at Brent plus a fixed mark-up.
8The real contest moves to the premium bidders can justify over that floor, with H1 tie-splits and matching keeping barrels placed.
8A seven-day value-based EMD and end-use licensing tighten the gates without dulling competition.
 
3) Geo Logging takes Mahanadi mud logging at a steep 119–140% undercut to L2/L3 in Mahanadi Basin Project
8A mud logging tender with daily-to-final reporting discipline meets an unusually wide price spread.
8The L1–L2 gap resets the margin math even as PBG and integrity pact tighten execution guardrails.
8The unresolved 90 vs 120-day validity language leaves a compliance wrinkle to watch.
 
4) Three fluids houses clear the technical bar as OIL trims scope and eases crew-swap timelines in Mahanadi Basin Project
8OIL’s clarifications shrink the campaign but harden deliverables around HPWBM quality, RO compliance and calibrated labs.
8Ten-day crew-swap windows and moderated polyamine dosing hint at bidder-driven practicality.
8The real contest now is inventory reliability and DWM uptime in a five-well sprint.
