    An oil system is a geological system that includes all elements essential for hydrocarbon accumulation, such as source rocks containing organic matter, reservoir rocks for oil to flow through, seals to prevent escape, and traps for accumulation. The system describes interdependent elements and processes that generate, migrate, and trap oil and gas within mature source rocks, natural distribution networks, and discovered reservoirs, proving a functional system exists. Key elements are source, reservoir, seal and overburden rocks, along with trapping and hydrocarbon generation, migration and accumulation processes.

    DEAR TEACHER AND STUDENTS , TODAY I GOING TO TALK ABOUT Petroleum system

    An oil system is a geological system that encompasses the related hydrocarbon-generating rocks
    and includes all the elements and geological processes that are essential for the existence of a
    hydrocarbon accumulation.

    The system describes the interdependent elements and the processes that constitute the
    functional unit that creates the accumulations of hydrocarbons. The oil system includes the
    maturation zone of the parent rock, the natural distribution network, and the genetically related
    discovered oil events. The presence of oil is proof that a system exists.

    The essential elements of an oil system are the following:

    Roca madre: must contain enough organic matter

    Reservoir rock: must be quite permeable so that the oil flows freely.

    Rock seal: must be sufficiently impermeable to prevent the oil from escaping.

    Rock of overload: must have conditions of pressure temperature and time

    Oil systems have two processes:

    Trap formation.

    Generation, migration and accumulation of hydrocarbons.
