Maritime transportation has a decisive position in world trade. Along with the development of science and technology, maritime transportation faced more complex and robust problems in term of their optimization. In this paper, we purpose a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) on Maritime Transportation Optimization (MTO) in three-level decision making that is the strategic planning level, tactical planning level, and operational planning level. We also have identified Linear Programming (LP) as a proper preference to study MTO. This SLR using a structured approach that involves bibliometric and network analytics from the articles published during 1976 – 2019. Some of the key findings in this study as follows, (i) research and citation in MTO using LP is rising and reached its peak in 2018; (ii) three countries with the highest number of articles are the United States, Norway, and China; (iii) shows a great opportunity for future research to combine strategic planning, tactical planning, and operational planning.
