What causes the water in an artesian well to spout upwards?
The term artesian means that the water is contained in an underground aquifer and/or reservoir. The fact that it is spouting means that it has artesian pressure and is a flowingartesian well. The geology of the site determines the amount of pressure on the reservoir and not all artesian wells have enough, or any pressure to spout. The pressure comes from the weight of ground structures and ground water pressing on and around the underground reservoir.

What is Reservoir Rock?
It is defined as a place that oil migrates to and is held underground. Sandstone has plenty of room inside itself to trap oil, just like a sponge has room inside of itself to soak up spills in your kitchen. It is for this reason that sandstones are the most common reservoir rocks. Limestones and dolostones, some of which are the skeletal remains of ancient coral reefs, are other examples of reservoir rocks.
