The article deals with the development and spatial distribution of mud volcanoes in the waters of the South Caspian (in particular, the Baku archipelago), the characteristic features of the mud volcanic process, the main differences and similarities between marine and terrestrial mud volcanoes. It was found that by analyzing the products of mud volcanism it is possible to determine the age of deposits and the geological structure of the deep layers of the Earth. The geodynamic regime also affect
