    The annulus cement barrier failed to prevent hydrocarbons from entering the annulus after cement placement, allowing hydrocarbon migration from the formation into the wellbore. An investigation team assessed possible failure modes and paths that led to this outcome. A combination of factors could have contributed to the loss of well integrity if hydrocarbons entered the wellbore before, during, or after cement placement. Data analysis indicated that hydrocarbons did not enter the wellbore prior to cement placement.
