An example of asymmetric dip leakage is the Chocolate Bayou field, U.S. Gulf Coast, shown in [[:file:evaluating-top-and-fault-seal_fig10-11.png|Figure 2]]. All of the hanging wall gas accumulations are limited by FPLPs and dip leak. The three gas accumulations in the footwall, however, are all dip sealing; all have gas columns in contact with the fault plane. This pattern of behavior is common in both the U.S. Gulf Coast and the Niger Delta.<ref name=ch10r93 />
