This particular Gulfdawn was a T2-SE-A1 tanker constructed by Sun Shipbuilding in 1943. T2 tankers were the tanker equivalent of Victory Ships. Originally launched as San Antonio, operated by Gulf Oil Co. during the war, and then renamed Gulfdawn in 1947. It was sold to a Monrovia-registered operator in 1958 and eventually scrapped in 1966.

Wow; I never cease to be amazed at what arbitrary browsing of the commons turns up. A quick search reveals this to be the very Ohio that stayed afloat despite extensive damage and made it to Malta with its cargo of oil, considered by some to have saved Malta from falling into German hands.
