Not really the same, a 'trap' is just one of the elements that make up a hydrocarbon prospect. A lead is basically a prospect for which there is as yet insufficient information. When screening an area, a hydrocarbon explorer starts by identifying leads that have the potential to become drillable prospects. Work is then concentrated on the leads, hopefully allowing some of them to be upgraded into prospects, which may then be drilled. The article could certainly do with both expansion and clarification.
