Petroleum in India occurs in folds and fault traps in the rock formations of the tertiary age.In the case of folds, it occurs in the crest of the upfold.The layer that contains the oil is a porous limestone or sandstone, making it possible for the oil to flow through it.Petroleum in India is also found in fault layers between porous and non-porous rocks.About 63 per cent of India’s petroleum comes from Mumbai High region, 18 per cent from Gujarat and 16 per cent from Assam.
