| rowspan = 4 | ''Carbonate'' || rowspan = 4 | ''Marine carbonate reservoirs'' || rowspan = 4 | ''Bioherms''; Trap results from depositional relief created by porous organic carbonate buildup sealed by overlying and adjacent tight lithologies. These buildups are commonly referred to as reefs. A wide variety of reef traps have been described and classified based upon both the environment of deposition and geometry of the carbonate reservoir. Oil and gas have been trapped in barrier reefs, fringing reefs, platform reefs, atoll reefs, patch reefs, pinnacle reefs, reef mounds (or mud mounts), and carbonate banks (James and Gelsetzer, 1989{{citation needed}}). These terms can be used as subfamilies, as noted below. If a more detailed classification is needed, varieties can be established based upon the facies and genesis of the sealing units surrounding the buildups. || colspan = 5 | ''Pinnacle reefs''; High-relief, circular or ovoid mounds created by upward grown of carbonate frame-building organisms in basinal setting. Reef typically contains a significant amount of high-energy carbonate detritus (grain-stones, wackestones) as well as boundstones and framestones. Reef width is less than 10% of height (James and Geldsetzer, 1989).
|-
| rowspan = 4 | ''Platform reefs''; Larger reefal carbonate buildup in which lateral dimensions are measured in kilometers and in which reef width is more than 10 times reef height (James and Geldsetzer, 1989).
|-
| rowspan = 4 | ''Patch reefs''; Small, low-relief carbonate mounds developed by frame-building organisms on top of a shelf.
|-
| rowspan = 4 | ''Mud mounds''; Depositional carbonate mounds consisting largely of clean lime mudstone with relatively little macro-fossil debris.
