The paper proposes a methodology for identifying, analyzing, and evaluating risks for the maritime industry, presented systematically. In the research, the methodology we applied to container ship, for a generic model of the fully cellular containership type and three modes of operation. The conceptual framework of the research was organized into three stages, which are detailed in the paper. Risk analysis and evaluation took into account the provisions of the IMO (Revised Guidelines for Formal Safety Assessment - FSA for use in the IMO rulemaking process). The major / priority risk factors were grouped into 12 risk scenarios, and the consequences of their materialization were related to 4 types of risk (the risk for human life, risk for the environment, risk for cargo, risk for the ship. The authors consider that the proposed research can be used by adapting it to identify, analyze, and evaluate the risks for the other types of ships.
