Marine hoses are conduits for special use as rubberized structures with hybrid polymer composites for offshore platforms in the oil and gas industry. This scientometric study uses qualitative, quantitative, and computational approaches. Data were retrieved using a research methodology that was created for this study using the SCOPUS and Web of Science (WoS) databases. This study provides a bibliometric literature review on marine hoses with an emphasis on the advancements made in the field from recent developments, geographical activity by countries, authorship histories, partnerships, funding sources, affiliations, co-occurrences, and potential research areas. The study found that the USA had the most publications, but there were fewer co-occurrences with connections outside the cluster. Due to the difficulty of adaptation, acceptability, qualification, and deployment of marine hoses in the offshore marine industry, this topic contains more conference papers than journal papers. Therefore, more funding sources and collaborations on marine hoses are required to advance the research. This study makes a contribution to scholarship on advances made in petroleum exploration and production for (un)loading hoses. © 2022 by the authors. date: 2022 publisher: MDPI official_url: https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-85140731146&doi=10.3390%2fen15207723&partnerID=40&md5=8db667c25fcfe25d3c90f1989d056198 id_number: 10.3390/en15207723 full_text_status: none publication: Energies volume: 15 number: 20 refereed: TRUE issn: 19961073 citation: Amaechi, C.V. and Ja�e, I.A. and Reda, A. and Ju, X.
