(A), (B) and (D) only (A), (B) and (C) only (A), (C) and (D) only (B), (C) and (D) only |
(B), (C) and (D) only |
The correct answer is Option (4) - (B), (C) and (D) only (A) Digboi is an example of market-based oil refinery. This is incorrect. Oil extracted from the wells is crude oil and contains many impurities. It cannot be used directly. It needs to be refined. There are two types of refineries in India: (a) field-based and (b) market-based. Digboi is an example of fieldbased and Barauni is an example of marketbased refinery. |
