2026: ONGC could’ve bought Cray for HPC, they went with L1 bidder with unproven experience.
Parimal@Fintech03

1987. A room in New Delhi is thick with the smell of old files & cold tea. The United States has just delivered a stinging slap to the face of the Indian Republic. They have officially refused to sell India the 'Cray X-MP' Supercomputer, the most powerful machine on Earth, claiming that India would use it for nuclear weapons. The American officials mockingly suggest that India does not even have the electricity to keep such a machine running. In the middle of this national humiliation, a young, soft-spoken engineer named Vijay Bhatkar is asked by then Prime Minister Rajiv Gandhi: "Can we build our own?" Bhatkar does not hesitate. He looks at the No of the West & says: "We will not just build it; we will build it faster than you can ship it." The Americans did not just stop at refusing the sale; they actively lobbied other nations to ensure India remained digitally blind. They believed that w/o their Logic Gates, India would remain a 3rd world backwater. Bhatkar realized he could not replicate the Single-Processor behemoth of the Cray. Instead, he turned to Parallel Processing. He decided to stitch together 1000s of low-cost, off-the-shelf microprocessors. It was like building a giant's brain out of the neurons of ants. In 1991, while the West was still celebrating its monopoly, Bhatkar unveiled the PARAM 8000. It was not just a computer; it was a Gigaflop monster. To prove the PARAM was real, Bhatkar ran a standard global benchmark test. The results were sent to an international conference in Zurich. The PARAM 8000 was ranked as the 2nd most powerful supercomputer in the world, behind only the American machines. But there was a twist: the PARAM cost a fraction of the Cray, performed better in tropical heat, & was built in just 3 years. When the PARAM 8000 was 1st turned on, the team did not have a high-tech cooling system like the Americans. They used industrial-grade desert coolers & adjusted the airflow manually. It was the ultimate Jugaad that defeated the most sophisticated tech embargo in history. A major US newspaper ran a story with the headline: "Denied supercomputer, Angry India does it!" The ghost of the Native Engineer had officially entered the silicon temple. Vijay Bhatkar’s history is the story of how India became the IT Capital of the world. Bhatkar founded the Centre for Development of Advanced Computing (C-DAC). He did not just build a machine; he built an ecosystem. Every software engineer in India today stands on the shoulders of the man who proved we did not need the West's permission to compute. Bhatkar was the 1 who realized that if computers only spoke English, 90% of India would be left behind. He led the development of GIST (Graphics & Intelligence Based Script Technology), allowing computers to work in Indian languages. He gave the Machine a local tongue. Today, Bhatkar is a Padma Bhushan awardee, but he lives a life of deep spirituality & simplicity. He vanished from the corporate headlines to become a philosopher of the digital age. The West thought they could freeze India’s future by withholding a single machine. They forgot that the Indian mind does not need a 'Cray' to think; it only needs a 'No' to ignite. Forget building a supercomputer; Bhatkar built a mirror, & for the 1st time, the West had to look into it & see that the primitive colony had become the master of the code.

India’s watershed moment—but with caveats. Kalyani entering gas turbines & generators is bigger than domestic defence. With 51% ownership of 🇺🇦Zorya Mashproekt, 25–40 MW marine gas turbines like the DA80/DA100 (industrial) series used by the Indian Navy could see localisation, alongside BHEL’s 40 MW efforts. Global turbine shortages are arguably worse than AI chips/memory, with 7-year wait times and AI-DC demand running into 2-digit billions. Likes of UGT25000 are suited for hyperscale AI DC clusters. AI-led demand premiums are so large that Hyundai recently entered the space, landing its largest-ever $500M engine deal for DCs. MTs will need industrialisation for AI DC repurposing and a mfg ecosystem. Only if played right, hope this remains 100% indigenous from the start — not another BrahMos

@TrumpBot1789 @vtchakarova UAE diversified their economy so they are not reliant on oil. But they have a pipeline that bypasses the strait of hormuz. So yes.

UAE left OPEC/+ to free production, is now doubling non‑Hormuz export capacity via Fujairah (after 2027), and is locking in India as a long‑term buyer via LPG/LNG deals and the build up of India's strategic reserve. These are three mutually reinforcing pillars of same strategy.

@mitrapredator For a sense of proportion, 30 million barrels of crude oil is equivalent to about 4 days of crude oil consumption of India in 2026. India burns through 5.4 million barrels of crude per day.

@Shan_N7 Natural gas yes. Untapped reserves in offshore basins of east coast & a&n are large enough. Oil will always be imported overwhelmingly due to sheer demand. But the success factors are: 1) Domestic owned & operated big fleet of ULCC & VL-LNG carriers. 2) E&P capability building.

@Konnect2Allster With all these bromance going on between these two leaders, I think its safe to assume we will be getting some long term supply contract with UAE. UAE + Domestic prod is the only way out.

The IDF has deployed 158,000 square meters of mesh netting to counter Hezbollah FPV drones, with another 188,000 square meters being procured. The total netting covers an area equivalent to roughly 20 soccer fields, installed on vehicles and military posts.

@BiggaNiger12 @brahmosputra @Sandy_3334 @sidhant Will cost tens of billions of 💰 to construct and an unholy amt after that to secure & maintain yearly. Also, will be extremely vulnerable to nordstream like sabotage. Whereas a fleet of ULCC carriers owned & operated by SCI alone can transport the same amt cheaper and safer.

x.com/i/status/20551… If this is accurate, it’s a big strategic energy move. The United Arab Emirates (UAE) has long been exposed to one major chokepoint: the Strait of Hormuz, through which a large share of global oil exports pass. Any tension there—military, political, or naval disruption—immediately puts UAE and wider Gulf exports at risk. What the new pipeline means By accelerating a pipeline to Fujairah (UAE’s east coast), the UAE is effectively: Bypassing the Strait of Hormuz entirely Sending crude directly to the Gulf of Oman / Arabian Sea side Doubling export flexibility and emergency resilience Reducing vulnerability to regional escalation involving Iran or other Gulf tensions

@Osint613 Smart move for energy security, but notice how Fujairah is quietly becoming the world is most critical strategic chokepoint. You have to wonder if they will truly bypassing the threat, or just moving the bullseye to a different part of the coast.

@Shan_N7 The real deal is the treasure trove of tight natural gas the UAE has..almost 500 tcf. And unlike 🇶🇦 most of it yet to be tapped. ADNOC LNG has aggressive plan to expand & due to Fujairah coastline, direct access to open sea. They can outcompete qatari hold on import share.
