Have you seen the book 'Eagle Fleet' by W. Lucas, published by Weidenfeld and Nicholson. It gives details of the 'San ships'. I borrowed it through my local public library who located a copy.

I first found reference to it in 'Pedestal' by Peter Smith which I bought in Malta. It gives details of the Ohio (nominally owned by Eagle Oil on behalf of Ministry of War Transport) and its role in the famous Operation Pedestal to relieve that island.
