Are there any modules in STATA that implement bivariate Weibull
likelihood for right censored models?

Thanks

There are none in official Stata that I am aware of.  I think you
need to be more specific about the model you have in mind, in
particular whether you are assuming some bivariate distribution
of frailty ("unobserved heterogeneity").  Without such frailty, I
think most bivariate models reduce to a couple of univariate
models that can be estimated separately. With such frailty, I
think you'll have to write your own program using -ml-, or find
someone else's.

PS It's a good idea to report the results of your -findit-
searches before posting.
