The article discusses the patterns of location and the conditions for the formation of salt diapirs. Their formation is associated with thick salt cjmpleses in which phase transformations within closed physicochemical systems form ultrahigh pressures. The latter are the cause of the flow of salts and their penetration through tectonic cracks and fractures to the earth's surface. The similarity of the formation of salt diapirs and mud volcanoes is emphasized. The possibility of the influence of ultrahigh pressures on the autonomous folding of the sedimentary cover is assumed.

The article discusses the patterns of placement of mud volcanoes, their spatial connection with tectonic faults, anticlinal uplifts, oil and gas fields. The connection of mud volcanic activity with ultrahigh pressures arising in the clay strata of the stratisphere as a result of phase transformations of clay minerals and organic matter is argued. The role of earthquakes in the formation of fractured clays, increasing their permeability and the formation of mud crates is emphasized. On the example of the mud volcano Aligula (Turkmenistan), the processes of dilution of sandstones and clays, the formation of volcanic mud-crates are considered.
