I would call this "shuttle tanker shipping lines."
A "bøyelasteskip" is a "shuttle tanker" and "rederiene" are shipping lines (or shipowners, or shipping companies, or any of a number of terms used for "rederiene."
But specifically, how are these companies that operate shuttle tankers referred to?

shuttle tanker companies
This is very close to your solution, Charles, but omits 'shipping' as this concept is contained within 'tanker'.
"Shuttle tanker operators' seems a popular alternative.
Looking up Shuttle tanker companies/operators in my search engine produces many references.
