Abstract Determining how gas hydrate distribution evolved along continental margins in the past is essential to understanding its evolution in the future. Moreover, hydrate decomposition has been linked to several catastrophic events, including some of the largest submarine landslides on Earth and the massive release of greenhouse gases into the ocean. Offshore Romania, the presence of a second bottom‐simulating reflector (BSR) provides an opportunity to gain valuable insights into hydrate dynam
