A structural trap is formed by folded or fractured rocks while a stratigraphic trap is formed by changes in rock type caused by variation of the setting where rocks were deposited. 3, record 1, English, - structural%20trapping

Ne pas confondre avec «piégeage stratigraphique». Le piégeage structural et le piégeage stratigraphique (ainsi que le piégeage hydrodynamique) sont des types de piégeage physique du CO2. Un piège structural est formé par des plis et des failles de la roche alors qu'un piège stratigraphique est formé lorsque des couches imperméables de roches sus-jacentes agissent comme des surfaces étanches au-dessus des couches perméables sous-jacentes. 3, record 1, French, - pi%C3%A9geage%20structural
