Highlighted in the red circle is the structural trap formation
as simulated by open fault scenario has accumulated by
oil.
Highlighted in the green circle is the stratigraphic trap
formation as simulated by closed fault scenario has no
accumulation.
262
The simulated open fault model showing an accumulation
of oil occurs at the easternmost fault structural trap (as
pointed by green arrow).
The simulated closed fault model showing an
accumulation of gaseous occurs at the fault structural trap
(as pointed by red arrows).
