Indian Oil Corporation is looking to rope in a strategic investor for its proposed Rs 10,000 crore project at Ennore in Tamil Nadu. “Money is not a major problem for us, it's the technology and the partner should bring in synergy,” said BM Bansal, chairman of IOC, who was here to the annual general meeting of Chennai Petroleum Corporation Limited.

He added that the detailed feasibility report on the project would be ready by November or December. The Ennore complex, which is expected to spawn a grid of gas pipelines across Tamil Nadu and other southern states, would be commissioned by 2014-2015.
