As technology evolves and well control increases, exploration for pure stratigraphic traps becomes more and more practical. Seismic technology produces images of the subsurface with higher and higher resolution. Images and measurements of the subsurface, however detailed, still must be interpreted geologically. Effective geologic interpretation and, therefore, effective stratigraphic trap exploration integrates all data types, including seismic, well log, fluid character, fluid pressure, show, core, and cuttings. Sequence stratigraphy serves as a framework for integrating data.

Stratigraphic traps are formed as a result of [[Depositional trap regime|depositional]], [[Erosional trap regime|erosional]], or [[Diagenetic trap regime|diagenetic]] processes. As technology evolves and well control increases, exploration for pure stratigraphic traps becomes more and more practical. Seismic technology produces images of the subsurface with higher and higher resolution. Images and measurements of the subsurface, however detailed, still must be interpreted geologically. Effective geologic interpretation and, therefore, effective stratigraphic trap exploration integrates all data types, including [[Seismic interpretation|seismic]], [[Quick-look lithology from logs|well log]], [[Petroleum reservoir fluid properties|fluid character]], [[Formation fluid pressure and its application|fluid pressure]], [[Show evaluation|shows]], [[Overview of routine core analysis|cores]], and [[Mudlogging: drill cuttings analysis#Basic sample analysis|cuttings]]. [[Sequence stratigraphy]] serves as a framework for integrating data.
