* Presence of intrusives in the fetch area can indicate a potential for carbon dioxide dilution.<ref name=ch11r29>Parker, C., 1974, Geopressures and secondary porosity in the deep Jurassic of Mississippi: Transactions of the Gulf Coast Association of Geological Societies, vol. 24, p. 69–80.</ref>

* If reservoir rocks are associated with evaporite cements or beds, expect hydrogen sulfide if the reservoir is exposed to temperatures > [[temperature::150°C]] and iron is not present to remove the hydrogen sulfide.

High nitrogen gas content is also characteristic of evaporative settings and hydrocarbon-poor basins.
