Analyzing sequences for stratigraphic or combination traps is simply looking for stratigraphic changes, such as updip pinch-outs of rocks with reservoir potential or mounds of reservoir-quality rocks, in the context of a depositional sequence. Knowing where the target interval and area are within a depositional sequence gives us the ability to predict the presence of certain trap types. Follow the procedure outlined below to predict the location of traps within a sequence. | Analyzing sequences for stratigraphic or combination traps is simply looking for stratigraphic changes, such as updip pinch-outs of rocks with reservoir potential or mounds of reservoir-quality rocks, in the context of a depositional sequence.
