Fluidic traps are oil and gas accumulations in which the trapping element is the physical or chemical condition of the reservoir fluids. There are three regimes in the fluidic system:

• Pressure traps
• Temperature traps
• Fluid-composition traps

This section discusses the regimes, classes, and families of the fluidic trap system.
