Question : Which one of the following regions in India is not a producer of petroleum minerals?
Option 1: Digboi, Assam
Option 2: Bombay High, Mumbai
Option 3: Delta of Narmada River
Option 4: Delta of Krishna River
Correct Answer: Delta of Narmada River
Solution : The correct answer is the Delta of the Narmada River.
Rajasthan is India's largest petroleum producer, followed by Gujarat and Assam. In India, oil can be found in Digboi in Assam, Gujarat, Mumbai High, and the Godavari and Krishna River basins. Mumbai High is the largest petroleum-producing site in India. The Narmada River does not form a delta; it forms an estuary, and it could be used as a site for tidal energy generation. As of now, it does not have any significant petroleum reserves.
