Diagenetic traps are created by pore throat modifications of primary facies. They can also be created by changes in fluid type within the pore system.

Categories

Figure 1 See text for explanation.

Diagenetic traps occur in two basic categories: early or near-surface traps and late-burial traps.

Early or near-surface diagenetic traps are created by the following:

Late burial diagenetic traps are created by the following:

Figure 1 shows cross sections of diagenetic trap types.
