Maritime means of transportation have been heavily used for freight throughout recorded history. Although the importance of maritime transportation for passengers has decreased in recent decades as a result of developments in aviation, passengers still use cruises and ferries. However, the demands on maritime transportation for cargo increase daily, result in many accidents, and lead to considerable economic losses and tragic outcomes such as human casualty and environmental damage. These dangers have prompted research for qualifying or quantifying safety risks in ports or waterways. This paper examines the concept of risk analysis and its definition in different fields. Finally, much of the literature related to safety risks in the field of maritime transportation is reviewed. This review may serve as a guide for researchers in the field and government organizations, including regulatory agencies, coast guards, port and waterway stakeholders, and various industries and practitioners.
