This structural trap is formed by an anticline and a normal fault. From Schlumberger Oilfield Glossary
STRUCTURAL HYDROCARBON TRAP
![Page 18: PETE311_06A_Class01_(Maggard)](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022052603/563db783550346aa9a8bbf49/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Closure. In map view (top), closure is the area within the deepest structural contour that forms a trapping geometry, in this case 1300 ft [390 m]. In cross section A-A', closure is the vertical distance from the top of the structure to the lowest closing contour, in this case about 350 ft [105 m]. The point beyond which hydrocarbons could leak from or migrate beyond the trap is the spill point.
DOMAL TRAP
From Schlumberger Oilfield Glossary
• Are hydrocarbons in this field oil or gas? • What is the volume of hydrocarbons
In this trap?• What are the reserves?

A reservoir-drive mechanism whereby the oil is driven through the reservoir by an active aquifer. As the reservoirdepletes, the water moving in from the aquifer below displaces the oil until the aquiferenergy is expended or the well eventually produces too much water to be viable.
WATER DRIVE
From Schlumberger Oilfield Glossary
What is the DriveMechanism?
