an economic quantity of hydrocarbon trapped in a permeable rock strata.

n: rock layers folded in the shape of an arch. Anticlines sometimes trap oil and gas. Compare syncline.

n: A configuration of folded and stratified rock layers in the shape of an arch. Often associated with a trap.

a convex-upward formation of rock layers (a fold with the strata sloping down on the sides from a common crest. In association with a sealing rock, an anticline may form a trap for hydrocarbons. Anticlines may be faulted or unfaulted. The majority of the

n: 1. a permeable body of rock capable of yielding groundwater to wells and springs. 2. the part of a water drive reservoir that contains the water.

n: (1) water bearing strata. (2) aqueous section in water controlled reservoir.

a water containing formation that may or may not be directly connected to the hydrocarbon bearing zone. A connected aquifer may or may not offer pressure support to the pay.

n: Usually used as plugging agent for permeable strata. Made the badasse.

n: (BS&W) see sediment and water (S& W). form thick sequences of sedimentary rock. 2. the area drained by a stream and its tributaries. 3. a geologii: structure in which strata are inclined toward a common centre.

a geologic epoch from today to 65 million years ago. Few major hydrocarbon bearing strata unless fluids have migrated to a trap from older source rocks.

n: a decrease in the volume of a stratum due to pressure exerted by overlying strata, evaporation of water, or other causes.

n: The process of breaking cuttings and compacting it into sample with compaction cell when doing preventing caving test.

a crushing of the matrix structure as overburden loads press down on the rock, reducing the pore space. During production of the well, the load on the matrix increases as the pore-filling fluids are removed. These loads may reduce the porosity of the rock

n: a wellbore that has been unintentionally drilled in a direction other than vertical. It usually occurs where there is a section of alliterating hard and soft strata steeply inclined from the horizontal.
