These are considered as structural traps preventing oil and gas from escaping.
2.
Within the Kettleman Hills, oil is found in the large structural trap represented by the anticline.
3.
Oil and gas is predominantly extracted from the Agbada Formation and is targeted from structural trap s there.
4.
The three basic forms of structural traps are the anticline trap, the fault trap and the salt dome trap.
5.
Every oil resource rock requires Structural traps which are mainly salt dome, coral reefs, fault trap and fold trap.
6.
The Avak structure provides the structural trap for the natural gas in the adjacent South Barrow and East Barrow gas fields.
7.
Structural traps are the most important type of trap as they represent the majority of the world's discovered petroleum resources.
8.
The field is bounded on the northeast by a fault which serves as a structural trap since it is upgradient from the oil pools.
9.
Oil pools exist both as lenticular accumulations within the units, trapped by stratigraphy, and as pools in structural traps along fault lines.
10.
Mostly Alpine orogenic movements and some older Hercynian compressional movements of the Arabian plate northward created East-West anticlinal structural traps within the Anatolian Basin.
