Oil and gas is produced from rock. There are no big caverns filled with oil or gas. It's in tiny pores in rock.

Water aquifers are sand, gravel, clay, silt, or a mixture of those. If you pump a lot of the water out, those can compact.

Also with oil and gas once the initial well pressure goes down, they begin pumping fluids (like brine) back into the source rock to push more oil and gas out.
