Issue II: Building a long term relationship with Reliance …. continued below.
We at VBG, were involved in the groundwork of this Jamnagar Export Refinery Project (JERP) since 2002, while the enquiries started flowing in early 2006. Submitting our bids for the entire quantity with all the necessary documents such as drawings for each line item, ITP’s, reference lists, technical manuals and procedures etc was very challenging and enormous.
A total quantity close to one lakh valves, order value of multiple crores spread over 2 years and 50 purchase orders …one could imagine the number of man-hours spent in execution and completion of this project. Now, we are at the tail end of this project with very few valves to be delivered.
The bidding started in the month of February 06 when we actually took it as a challenge to acquire a major part of this order and things likewise fell in place.
After long technical negotiations and price debates, the bidding went on for almost one and half months. It at last ended with a breakthrough order for Ball Valves in June 06.
We bagged the first package of 1000 nos of Ball Valves in the month of June’06 with a value of approximately 15 Crs with very tight delivery schedules.
The Ball Valves marketed by us have an international reputation for high integrity in critical services. These valves are manufactured to international standards using modern production and quality assurance techniques.
Ball Valves supplied are categorized as:
- Floating Ball and
- Trunnion Mounted Ball Valves including valves for Low temp service – close to 1500 nos. (Size range – 4” to 24” in the class ratings #150 to #600).
Await next issue for an elucidation on this first order of ball valves.
