Here is what we think is happening at present.
This is our interpreted structural configuration
Gas is being generated in the deepest portions of the source rock interval to the west of Alpha.
Oil is being generated at intermediate depths west of Alpha and in the low just to the east of Alpha
Gas and oil are migrating to the faulted trap at Alpha
Only oil is migrating to the faulted trap at Beta
