Detailed explanation-1: -A reservoir is an artificial lake where water is stored. Most reservoirs are formed by constructing dams across rivers. A reservoir can also be formed from a natural lake whose outlet has been dammed to control the water level. The dam controls the amount of water that flows out of the reservoir.
Detailed explanation-2: -Reservoirs are divided into two types: lake-and river-type ones. Formation of body of water, much differing in their physical properties from the properties of inflow water, is typical of lake-type reservoirs.
Detailed explanation-3: -A reservoir system has three main components: a reservoir, an aquifer, and a transition zone (interface) between the two. A reservoir is a porous and permeable rock saturated with oil or gas in buoyancy pressure equilibrium with a free water level (zero buoyancy pressure).
