BPCL CRDC technical evaluation shall be treated as final. Any complaint afterwards from the Vendor shall not be entertained. Vendor shall note that if for any reason the Corrosion Inhibitor sample of the fresh batch supplied after rejection of first batch fails for the second time. BPCL reserves the right to cancel/ terminate the contract. BPCL s decision on this will be final and binding to the Vendor. AND 6.2 Acceptance by testing of performance of fresh corrosion inhibitor batch for Spindle test to arrive at the Dosage rate to achieve B++ rating as per NACE Standard TM or latest. 1) Vendor shall note that BPCL shall test each new fresh batch of Corrosion Inhibitor received at each location (Refinery and Downstream) for testing dosage effectiveness of the batch with respect to the un-doped HSD samples drawn from Mumbai/ Bina/Kochi. The Hydrocarbon undoped sample drawn will be of C/B grade only (NACE TM 0172 (Spindle)) BPCL shall utilize the CI samples collected under clause 4 for CI sample and clause 5(A) for the test. BPCL shall arrange to send the sample of un-doped HSD samples from Bina and Mumbai Refinery and CI samples from different dosing locations for every new batch to BPCL CRDC NOIDA. The HSD samples thus received at BPCL CRDC Noida shall be analyzed for the following: 1) The corrosion rating of the HSD product un-doped as obtained from the HSD tank for comparison with the Bid Evaluation HSD product un-doped report. The ratings thus obtained based on NACE TM by spindle test method shall be useful in establishing a grade of the corrosiveness of the HSD samples drawn from the tank as undoped. Vendor to note the maximum grade of corrosive rating of the un-doped HSD product expected by BPCL is C (Test Details explained in NACE TM0172). Page 12 of 22

13 For Example: The pre Bid evaluation gets the grade of HSD un-doped as C. The post PO award un-doped HSD sample sent from Mumbai/Bina/Kochi gets rating C. This shall be useful in comparison of the HSD samples un-doped. 2) The dosing of vendor supplied CI in ppm required to achieve the B++ rating with NACE TM (Spindle Test). Further the acceptance of the performance of the corrosion inhibitor samples shall be governed by the PPM dosage required to achieve the B++ rating from the existing un-doped HSD Samples as drawn from the Mumbai/Kochi/ Bina Refinery Locations. In case of mismatch of the PPM dosage rate as required to achieve B++ rating during Bid evaluation and during the testing of the new batch received at any location post award of the PO, Vendor has the following options:- CASE I :- The new CI Batch received at Refinery locations ( Mumbai/Bina/Kochi).The CI batch is tested with the un-doped Tank HSD samples at CRDC Noida Lab and the new batch CI PPM dosage required to achieve the B++ rating is arrived. In case the PPM thus arrived is more than the one required to achieve B++ rating during Bid evaluation then 1) Increase the PPM dosage at the Refinery location (Mumbai/ Bina/Kochi) step by step to match the PPM dosage required to achieve the B++ rating. Maximum allowable dosage is 10 PPM. Further for every additional increase in PPM at the Refinery location the joint spindle sampling shall be carried out at the next immediate downstream location as per clause no 5.0 (B).If the B++ rating is achieved the same incremental dosage to be accounted in the PPM dosage at the subsequent downstream locations step by step to match the PPM dosage required to achieve the B++ rating. In case the downstream locations are achieving the B++ rating without any incremental dosage the Vendor may not dose additional incremental PPM at downstream locations. In the above scenario for any reasons not attributable to BPCL, The vendor shall supply all the additional CI product required at Refinery location and downstream location to meet the B++ rating at no extra cost to BPCL. AND 2) All the Corrosion Inhibitor drums of particular batch shall be rejected and no payment shall be done for the batch in case the PPM dosage required to achieve the B++ rating is more than 10 PPM. The vendor shall arrange to replace the rejected batch Corrosion Inhibitor drums available at the respective location at Vendor s own cost within two weeks from the date of test results of Corrosion Inhibitor samples. Page 13 of 22

14 BPCL CRDC technical evaluation shall be treated as final. Any complaint afterwards from the Vendor shall not be entertained. Vendor shall note that if for any reason the Corrosion Inhibitor sample of the fresh batch supplied after rejection of first batch fails for the second time. BPCL reserves the right to cancel/ terminate the contract. BPCL s decision on this will be final and binding to the Vendor. For Example: The pre Bid evaluation gets the grade of HSD un-doped as C. The PPM dosage required to achieve the B++ rating during Bid evaluation as tested by CRDC Noida is 7PPM. The post PO award un-doped HSD sample sent from Mumbai/Bina/Kochi for each batch of CI receipt gets rating C. The PPM dosage NOW required to achieve the B++ rating during as tested by CRDC Noida is 8PPM. Vendor options: Option 1) The additional PPM thus required to be supplied by the Vendor at no extra cost to BPCL is 1PPM at Mumbai/Bina/Kochi. Further joint spindle sample test shall be carried out at Manmad/Kota/Coimbatore for the B++ rating of the pipeline Cargo. In case the B++ is not achieved at Manmad further incremental dosage to be done at Mumbai to a maximum of 10 ppm and spindle samples to be taken at Manmad/Bina/Coimbatore every week till B++ is achieved. For further downstream Manglya, the joint spindle sample as withdrawn at Manglya shall be tested for the B++ rating at the current dosage rate at Manmad. In case the B++ rating is achieved at Manglya with the current PPM dosage then no additional dosage increment is required at manmad in ratio of 60% of Revised Mumbai dosage. In case the B++ rating is not achieved at Manglya with the current PPM dosage then additional dosage increment is required at manmad in ratio of 60% of Revised Mumbai dosage. The additional quantity thus utilized shall not be payable by BPCL to the vendor. AND 2) All the Corrosion Inhibitor drums of particular batch shall be rejected and no payment shall be done for the batch if the PPM requirement for a particular batch to achieve the B++ rating is more than 10 PPM. The vendor shall arrange to replace the rejected batch Corrosion Inhibitor drums available at the respective location at Vendor s own cost within two weeks from the date of test results of Corrosion Inhibitor samples. CASE II: The new CI Batch received at Downstream locations ( excluding Mumbai/Bina/Kochi).The CI batch is tested with the un-doped Mumbai/ Bina/Kochi Tank HSD samples at CRDC Noida Lab and the new batch CI PPM dosage required to achieve the B++ rating is arrived. In case the PPM thus arrived is more than the one required to achieve B++ during Bid evaluation. Page 14 of 22

15 1) Increase the PPM dosage at the downstream location (excluding Mumbai/ Bina/Kochi) to 60% of the PPM as required to achieve the B++ rating as observed In Lab Test. Further for every additional increase in PPM at the Downstream location the joint spindle sampling shall be carried out at the next immediate downstream location as per clause no 5.0 B).If the B++ rating is achieved the same incremental dosage to be continued. In the above scenario for any reasons not attributable to BPCL, The vendor shall supply all the additional CI product required at Refinery location and downstream location to meet the B++ rating at no extra cost to BPCL. If the B++ rating is not achieved at the next immediate downstream location by maintaining 60%(others) /50% (Coimbatore) CI dosage as per the new revised CI PPM as observed during the Lab test with the un-doped HSD, the additional CI above 60%(others) /50% (Coimbatore) of the new revised PPM dosage thus required shall be borne by BPCL. AND 3) All the Corrosion Inhibitor drums of particular batch shall be rejected and no payment shall be done for the batch in case the PPM dosage required to achieve the B++ rating is more than 10 PPM. The vendor shall arrange to replace the rejected batch Corrosion Inhibitor drums available at the respective location at Vendor s own cost within two weeks from the date of test results of Corrosion Inhibitor samples. BPCL CRDC technical evaluation shall be treated as final. Any complaint afterwards from the Vendor shall not be entertained. Vendor shall note that if for any reason the Corrosion Inhibitor sample of the fresh batch supplied after rejection of first batch fails for the second time. BPCL reserves the right to cancel/ terminate the contract. BPCL s decision on this will be final and binding to the Vendor. CASE II For Example: The pre Bid evaluation gets the grade of HSD un-doped as C. The PPM dosage required to achieve the B++ rating during Bid evaluation as tested by CRDC Noida is 7PPM. The post PO award un-doped HSD sample sent from Mumbai/Bina for each batch of CI receipt at Manglya gets rating C. The PPM dosage NOW required to achieve the B++ rating during as tested by CRDC Noida is 8PPM. Vendor options: Option 1) The additional PPM thus required to be supplied by the Vendor at no extra cost to BPCL is 60% of 8PPM at Manglya as against earlier case 60% of 7 PPM. Further joint spindle sample test shall be carried out at Kota for the B++ rating of the pipeline Cargo. In case the B++ is achieved at Kota the incremental dosage to continue at Manglya.The additional CI thus utilized shall not be payable by BPCL to the vendor. Page 15 of 22

16 In case the B++ is not achieved at Kota further incremental dosage to be done at Manglya till B++ is achieved. The additional CI PPM thus required beyond 60% of 8PPM at Manglya shall be borne by BPCL. AND 2) All the Corrosion Inhibitor drums of particular batch shall be rejected and no payment shall be done for the batch in case the PPM dosage required to achieve the B++ rating is more than 10 PPM. The vendor shall arrange to replace the rejected batch Corrosion Inhibitor drums available at the respective location at Vendor s own cost within two weeks from the date of test results of Corrosion Inhibitor samples. 6.3 Acceptance by testing of performance of corrosion inhibitor for Spindle test as per NACE Standard TM or latest. 1. Vendor shall note that Corrosion Inhibitor dosages shall be carried out as illustrated in clause no 7.0 and monitored by BPCL. The sample of the hydrocarbon product (being dosed by vendor supplied corrosion inhibitor) being received at any of our downstream pipeline location shall be taken randomly and tested with NACE TM (Spindle Test) to determine the corrosive properties of cargo in the pipeline. If the spindle test rating gets result as B++ then the corrosion inhibitor is acceptable Vendor shall note that if the spindle test rating goes below B ++ grade for any particular batch for the joint samples collected vide clause no 5 sub clause no B of the contract for no reasons attributed to BPCL, then in that case BPCL shall increase the dosages at the immediate upstream location Stepwise 1ppm till it matches the ppm proposed in the Technical Bid by the Bidder at Refinery locations (Mumbai/ Bina/Kochi) or achieves the required B++ rating at the spindle test at Manmad/Kota/Coimbatore whichever is earlier. The sample of the hydrocarbon product (being dosed by vendor supplied corrosion inhibitor) being received at any of our downstream pipeline location shall be taken randomly in 2 nos. of 1L each and tested with NACE TM (Spindle Test) to determine the corrosive properties of cargo in the pipeline. If the spindle test rating gets result as B++ then the corrosion inhibitor is acceptable. If the 1 st spindle sample fails then the 2 nd 1L sample as collected shall be evaluated for the spindle test in presence of the Vendor. In Case after reaching the C I ppm dosage as proposed by Bidder In technical Bid, the B++ Rating is not achieved then based on the recommendations of vendor to a maximum of 10ppm CI dosage can be done at the Refinery locations. Page 16 of 22

17 In case the B++ Rating is achieved at Manmad/Kota/Coimbatore then based on the recommendations of vendor to a maximum of 10ppm CI dosage of the PPM dosage at Refinery Location shall continue at the risk and cost of vendor to meet the criteria of B++ spindle rating for the batch. The additional corrosion inhibitor quantity used by BPCL beyond the proposed ppm of the bidder in the technical bid for achieving desired spindle test ratings of B++ shall not be payable to the vendor. Further the joint spindle samples withdrawn at other downstream locations excluding Manmad, Kota (Ex Bina),Coimbatore (Ex Kochi), Vendor shall note that if the spindle test rating goes below B ++ grade for any particular batch for the joint samples collected vide clause no 5 sub clause no B of the contract for no reasons attributed to BPCL, then in that case BPCL shall increase the dosages at the immediate upstream location Stepwise 1ppm achieves the required B++ rating at the spindle test. The sample of the hydrocarbon product (being dosed by vendor supplied corrosion inhibitor) being received at any of our downstream pipeline location shall be taken randomly in 2 nos. of 1L each and tested with NACE TM (Spindle Test) to determine the corrosive properties of cargo in the pipeline. If the spindle test rating gets result as B++ then the corrosion inhibitor is acceptable. If the 1 st spindle sample fails then the 2 nd 1L sample as collected shall be evaluated for the spindle test. In Case at other downstream locations excluding Manmad, Kota (Ex Bina),Coimbatore (Ex Kochi)after reaching the 60 %(others)/ 50% (Coimbatore) dosage rate of C I ppm dosage as proposed by Bidder In technical Bid or enhanced by Bidder at Mumbai/Bina/Kochi post testing in Clause no 6.2, B++ Rating is not achieved then additional dosage required at downstream locations excluding Manmad and Kota (Ex Bina) shall be borne by BPCL. The vendor technical team needs to consult to BPCL for discussion on inhibitor performance. In case the B++ rating for the product is not achieved even by putting max acceptable dosing in 10 ppm in Mumbai/Bina, and again upon failing for providing B++ rating in spindle test the contract shall be terminated. In case of termination of the contract the quantity of CI as dosed in the pipeline during the spindle test above shall not be payable to the vendor. 2) Vendor to note if the spindle samples at Manglya, Kota (Manglya- kota), Mathura, Piyala, Jobner, Bijwasan, Karur fail to achieve the B++ rating at dosage rate of 60% of CI dosage in PPM at Bina and Mumbai and 50% of CI dosage at Kochi as observed during the testing as mentioned in clause no 5.0 A), Vendor is not attributable for any additional CI supply free of cost at Manmad, Manglya, Kota (Manglya- kota), Mathura, Piyala, Coimbatore.BPCL shall arrange for additional procurement of CI to meet the demand of CI at the Manmad, Manglya, Kota (Manglya- kota), Mathura, Piyala, Coimbatore to meet the B++ rating.
