A/S J. Ludwig Mowinckels Rederi is a Bergen-based shipping company that operates eight tankers with six newbuildings. The company is privately owned by two foundations founded by the company's founder Johan Ludwig Mowinckel.

The portfolio consists of product tankers, shuttle tankers, and chemical tankers. Two newbuildings are bulk carriers. These vessels are registered in the Norwegian International Ship Register, the Norwegian Ship Register, on the Bahamas and on Malta. Chaterers include ExxonMobil, Statoil and Teekay. In 2007, the company reentered the dry bulk market by purchasing two panamax newbuilding contracts of 75,000 metric tons of deadweight (DWT) from Golden Ocean Group for USD 45 million.[2]
