What is Migration of Petroleum: Primary vs. Secondary about?

Primary migration involves the expulsion of hydrocarbons from source rocks. Secondary migration then transports hydrocarbons through carrier beds toward traps where they can accumulate. The main driving forces for secondary migration are buoyancy and pressure gradients, while capillary pressure provides the main resistance. Secondary migration is most efficient in porous and permeable carrier beds, and serves to concentrate hydrocarbons in structural or stratigraphic traps. Understanding secondary migration
