One topic, as StudyPath teaches it.

Reservoir types

Reservoir types are the fundamental classifications that determine how hydrocarbons are stored, how they migrate, and how they can be produced. Mastering the differences between structural, stratigraphic, fault‑related, and salt‑related reservoirs, as well as their typical properties, is essential for correctly interpreting field data and designing development plans in the NUC CCMAS and NBTE exams.
