Formation Mechanism of Mud Volcanoes/Mud Diapirs Based on Physical Simulation
Geofluids, 2021 The formation of mud volcanoes/mud diapirs is directly related to oil and gas accumulation and gas-hydrate mineralization. Their eruptive activities easily cause engineering accidents and may increase the greenhouse effect by the eruption of methane gas.

, 2010 Mud volcanoes are frequently encountered geo-structures at active and passive continental margins. In contrast to magmatic volcanoes, mud volcanoes are marine or terrestrial, topographic elevations built from vertically rising fluidized mud or mud breccia. Commonly, these structures have a crater, hummocky rime and caldera.

Mud volcanoes and methane seeps in Romania: main features and gas flux
Annals of Geophysics, 2007 Romania is one of the European countries with the most vigorous natural seepage of methane, uprising from pressurised natural gas and petroleum reservoirs through deep faults. The largest seepage zone is represented by large mud volcanoes, with
