'storehouse') is, most commonly, an enlarged natural or artificial lake, pond, or impoundment created using a dam or lock to STORE WATER.Reservoirs can be created in a number of ways, including controlling a watercourse that drains an existing body of water, interrupting a watercourse to form an embayment within it, through excavation, or building any number of retaining walls or levees. Defined as a storage space for fluids, reservoirs may hold water or gasses, including HYDROCARBONS. Tank reservoirs store these in ground-level, elevated, or BURIED tanks. Tank reservoirs for water are also called cisterns. Most underground reservoirs are used to store liquids, principally EITHER water or petroleum, below ground. |
