Gas Reservoirs

Gas reservoirs are underground formations that store natural gas, trapped within porous rocks like sandstone or limestone. These reservoirs form when gas accumulates over time from sources like decaying organic matter. They are often sealed by impermeable cap rocks that prevent gas from escaping, creating a natural storage bubble. Extracting gas involves drilling wells into these reservoirs, allowing the captured gas to flow to the surface for use as fuel or raw material. Understanding these reservoirs helps in efficient exploration, extraction, and management of natural gas resources.
