A seal can fail when [[capillary pressure]] exceeds seal entry pressure, open fractures bypass matrix pore systems, hydrofracturing occurs, leakage takes place through micropermeable lithologies, or gas is diffused. The most likely mechanism is controlled by the seal lithology and the geological history.
