Abstract:

This study presents a bibliometric analysis of research trends in shipyard risk management using data retrieved from the Scopus database and visualized through VOSviewer software. The objective is to map the scientific landscape, identify key themes, influential authors, institutions, and emerging topics in the field. A total of 754 publications from 2000-2025 were analyzed using annual trends, author, institution and national collaboration, and keyword co-occurrence. The results reveal significant growth in scholarly interest over the past decade, with major contributions from countries such as United States and China. Key clusters identified include occupational safety and health, environmental, disaster, financial and technical risk, project risk assessment, and human centered risk in shipbuilding. It also discussed the methodology used to assess the risk, that use many kind of Multicriteria Decision Making. The analysis also highlights research gaps and potential directions for future studies, particularly in integrating advanced data analytics, sustainability-oriented risk frameworks as the Integrated Shipyard Risk Management. This study contributes to a deeper understanding of the intellectual structure and evolution of shipyard risk management research.

Keywords: Shipyard Risk Management, Bibliometric Analysis, Scopus, VOSViewer, Integrated Risk Management
