This sedimentary basin is one of India’s major sources of [[petroleum]] and [[natural gas]] and has a geographical extent of about {{convert|126,000|sqkm|sqmi|-3}}. The Rajasthan Basin unconfirmably lies over [[Precambrian]] [[basement rock]]s.{{citation needed|date=September 2014}}<br /> <br /> ==Petroleum reserves==<br /> Huge reserves of naturally occurring hydrocarbons are expected in clastic and carbonate reservoirs in [[Cambrian]] to [[Paleocene]] sequences like limestone and shales capped by intra formational shales and tight limestones. Oil and Natural Gas Corporation (ONGC), Oil India Limited and Focus energy are some of major petroleum companies in this basin.{{citation needed|date=September 2014}}<br /> <br /> ==Sub-divisions==<br /> The Rajasthan Basin has been further divided into three sub-basins.<br /> <br /> # Jaisalmer sub basin or [[Jaisalmer basin]]<br /> # Bikaner Nagaur sub basin or BNG basin (after Bikaner Nagaur and Ganganagar, town of Rajasthan)<br /> # Barmer Sanchor sub basin.<br /> <br /> Bikaner nagaur sub basin is separated from Jaisalmer basin by pokaran high while DEvikot Nachna uplift separates Barmer Sanchor sub basin from Jaislmer sub basin.<br /> <br /> ==References==<br /> *[http://www.infraline.com/ong/Upstream/NELP-VII/Rajasthan_Basin_NELP_VII.pdf RAJASTHAN BASIN]<br /> *[http://dghindia.gov.in/assets/downloads/56ceb6e098299Rajasthan_Basin_18.pdf DGH India RAJASTHAN BASIN]<br /> <br /> <br /> [[Category:Sedimentary basins of Asia]]<br /> [[Category:Geology of Rajasthan]]</div>
