We estimate the Stark and Zeeman shifts in the transition frequencies of the O-16(2)+ molecular ion as a step in the search for the variation in the proton-to-electron mass ratio mu. The X-2 Pi nu = 21- a(4)Pi v = 0 or the X-2 Pi v = 21- a(4)Pi v = 1 transition frequencies (THz region) of the O-16(2)+ molecular ion have particularly high sensitivity to the variation in mu. Note also that the Stark shift in the O-16(2)+ transition frequencies is expected to be much smaller than that for heteronuclear diatomic molecules. However, the actual systematic uncertainties for the O-16(2)+ transition frequencies have never been estimated. We estimated the Stark and Zeeman shifts in the different O-16(2)+ transition frequencies. When the molecular ions in a string crystal formed in a linear trap (trap electric field
