Understanding fault seal behavior in existing fields is a prerequisite for predicting seal behavior in untested prospects. Empirical studies have established patterns of seal behavior, identified seal/leak thresholds for quantitative analysis of a fault seal, provided real analogs for prospect assessment, and demonstrated how important fault seal behavior is in controlling hydrocarbon accumulations.[1][2][3][4][5]
