“…Different mechanisms, such as buoyancy of microbubbles, continuous gas-phase flow, diffusion, and transport water solution, have been proposed to explain microseepage in oil prospective regions (e.g., Clayton and Dando, 1996;Klusman and Saeed, 1996;Kroos and Leythaeuser, 1996;Brown, 2000;Etiope 2015;Anderson et al, 2019) and anthropogenic settings, such as landfills and underground gas storage complexes (e.g., El-Fadel et al, 1996a,b;Jones and Burtell, 1996;Chen et al, 2000;Nastev et al, 2001;Martín et al, 2001;Zeng, 2019). The theoretical treatment of this phenomenon can be challenging, depending on the numerous factors considered in the problem statement, such as dimensionality, hydrocarbons source model, multiphase hydrocarbons transport, and time-variation hydrocarbons composition.…”
