    The document discusses three types of reservoir drive mechanisms: Solution gas drive reservoirs experience rapid pressure decline and increasing gas-oil ratio over time with little water production. Recovery ranges from 5-30%. Gas cap drive reservoirs have slower pressure decline and increasing gas-oil ratio over longer periods with little water initially. Recovery ranges from 20-40%. Water drive reservoirs maintain high pressure if displaced oil is replaced by water. Gas-oil ratio remains constant while water production increases over time. Recovery can be as high as 70%.
