* '''Meteoric flow'''—water infiltrates shallow portions of a basin from precipitation or surface waters. Deeper infiltration occurs from (a) eustatic sea level changes and/or (b) tectonic elevation of basin margins.

* '''Compactional flow'''—compaction expels water upward and outward from the pores of sediments.

* '''Thermobaric flow'''—water moves in response to pressure gradients caused by generation of hydrocarbons, release of mineral-bound water, and/or increased heat flow.
