From the options provided, the three countries that boast petroleum as their top export are:

Libya, South Sudan, and Nigeria.

Among your options, these countries focus on exports primarily derived from petroleum.

  • Libya: Oil is the dominant sector of the economy.
  • South Sudan: Oil production has been the main economic driver since its independence.
  • Nigeria: One of the largest oil producers in Africa, with petroleum being a significant part of its export economy.
