Solution
It is an offshore oilfield situated 176 kilometers northwest of Mumbai in the Arabian Sea. It is currently the nation's most significant oil field. More than half of India’s total oil production in 2016–17 came from its 18,419 thousand tons of crude petroleum production. Submarine pipes transport the natural gas and oil to the mainland city of Uran. South of Mumbai High, another oilfield, Basein, has been found. It is believed that the deposits in this region are more abundant than those in the Mumbai High.
