Difference between Oil well and Petroleum reservoir

Oil well vs. Petroleum reservoir

An oil well is a boring in the Earth that is designed to bring petroleum oil hydrocarbons to the surface. A petroleum reservoir or oil and gas reservoir is a subsurface pool of hydrocarbons contained in porous or fractured rock formations.

Similarities between Oil well and Petroleum reservoir

Oil well and Petroleum reservoir have 9 things in common (in Unionpedia): Barrel (unit), Drilling, Hydrocarbon, Lithology, Natural gas, Oil field, Permeability (earth sciences), Petroleum, Petroleum geology.

Barrel (unit)

A barrel is one of several units of volume applied in various contexts; there are dry barrels, fluid barrels (such as the UK beer barrel and US beer barrel), oil barrels and so on.

Lithology

The lithology of a rock unit is a description of its physical characteristics visible at outcrop, in hand or core samples or with low magnification microscopy, such as colour, texture, grain size, or composition.

Natural gas

Natural gas is a naturally occurring hydrocarbon gas mixture consisting primarily of methane, but commonly including varying amounts of other higher alkanes, and sometimes a small percentage of carbon dioxide, nitrogen, hydrogen sulfide, or helium.

Oil field

An "oil field" or "oilfield" is a region with an abundance of oil wells extracting petroleum (crude oil) from below ground.

Permeability (earth sciences)

Permeability in fluid mechanics and the earth sciences (commonly symbolized as κ, or k) is a measure of the ability of a porous material (often, a rock or an unconsolidated material) to allow fluids to pass through it.
