réservoir avec chapeau de gaz (ou «gas-cap») et aquifère de fond. Ce type de réservoir est assez courant. La phase hydrocarbure liquide en conditions de fond (à la profondeur du réservoir) est surmontée d'une phase hydrocarbure gazeuse, et est elle-même située au-dessus d'une phase eau. Les trois phases se mettent en place naturellement de la plus lourde en bas à la plus légère en haut, simplement par différences de densités. La présence de deux phases pour l'hydrocarbure est liée aux conditions thermodynamiques de pression et de température qui existent dans le réservoir.
