In this paper we investigate the eta(c) production by photon-photon and photon-hadron interactions in pp and pA collisions at the LHC energies. The inclusive and diffractive contributions for the eta(c) photoproduction are estimated using the nonrelativistic quantum chromodynamics (NRQCD) formalism. We estimate the rapidity and transverse momentum distributions for the eta(c) photoproduction in hadronic collisions at the LHC and present our estimate for the total cross sections at the Run 2 energies. A comparison with the predictions for the exclusive eta(c) photoproduction, which is a direct probe of the odderon, is also presented.
