It has to do with the first Dudjom, Duddul Dorje, a famous terton in his own right, who had a vision of Padmasambhava in which Padmasambhava invested the Dudjom line of incarnations as regents of Nyingma teachings.

Re: empowerment for Dudjom Tersar Ngondro
That Kyabje Dudjom Rinpoche was Guru Rinpoche's regent in this time is a commonly held belief among Nyingmapa. However, I don't know who first said this. Sorry. It is not my self-made opinion. I can say that I've heard this from the mouths of a number of my Gurus over the last 48 years.

Loppon-la,
Thank you for clarifying the source of this belief. I did not know this. How wonderful!

Re: empowerment for Dudjom Tersar Ngondro
Thank you. I think this is echoed in Dudjom Lingpa's autobiography as well, though I didn't recall the whole line being invested as such. Not that I doubt it, really, at all, I was just curious where it came from.

Re: empowerment for Dudjom Tersar Ngondro
I am actually quite confused by this. I know of the preliminary for the Khandro Thugtig part of the Tersar, with the unusual feature of the lama being in the form of Orgyen Dorje Chang or Pema Garwang; a preliminary in which GR appears as Padmasambhava (royal, lotus hat, consort), which I think I have seen in short and super-short versions; and a Throma preliminary focussed very much on the three-kaya dakinis where the guru appears as Vajravarahi. But are there more? Is there one for Khandro Nyingtig, or is that one of those above? Am I confused between them all? (Probably)
Is there anywhere I can easily see the relationships between them?
All best wishes

Scroll down to the Cycles the various Ngondros for Dudjom Tersar are listed there.
For example, the well known Dudjom Tersar Ngondro is included in the Daknang Yeshe Drawa.
There are others in different cycles.
