Catalysis of the transfer of an octanoyl (CH3-[CH2]6-CO-) group to an acceptor molecule. Catalysis of the transfer of an acyl group to an oxygen atom on the acceptor molecule. Catalysis of the transfer of an octanoyl group to an oxygen atom on the acceptor molecule. Catalysis of the reaction: octanoyl-CoA + L-carnitine = CoA + L-octanoylcarnitine. Catalysis of the transfer of an acyl group to an oxygen atom on the carnitine molecule.
