a diagram using contour lines to connect the elevation of similar depth points in a formation.

n: a portable mast constructed of angular as opposed to tubular steel members. See jackknife mast.

2D or 2-1/2D, a gravity or magnetic structural model is a density and/or susceptibility model of given or assumed geology in a system. The modeling can be to represent lithologic layers as equi-density and/or equi-susceptability layers or blocks. The laye

n: a petroleum trap that is formed because of deformation (such as folding or faulting) of the reservoir formation. Compare stratigraphic trap.

a combination of a formation structure feature such as a fault with a sealing mechanism that forms a place where oil accumulates or is “trapped”.

n: The inner frictional resistance caused by grains buildup and construction.

n: a geological formation of interest to drillers. For example, if a particular well is on the edge of a structure, the wellbore has penetrated the reservoir (structure) near its periphery.
