El destino inicial de ambos buques, llamados CONDE DE CHURRUCA y ARNÚS, era transportar aceite de coco desde Filipinas a España, una de los áreas de negocio de la citada entidad fundada en 1918 en San Sebastián. El ARNÚS fue un buque novedoso en su tiempo ya que se convirtió en el primero de su tipo en España equipado con un sistema propulsor dotado de motor diesel. Una completa descripción del buque se encuentra en el artículo de Vida Marítima titulado “The new motor tanker Arnús…”. En el mes de abril de 1928 la motonave ARNÚS fue vendida a la Compañía Arrendataria del Monopolio de Petróleos, S. A. (CAMPSA), por culpa de la crisis que afectó en la década de los años veinte al mercado naviero que obligó a liquidar la Sociedad Comercial de Oriente en 1927. Sus nuevos propietarios le renombraron BADALONA. En los siguientes años la flota de la naviera pública fue creciendo de forma muy importante gracias a varios contratos adjudicados a diferentes astilleros españoles, alcanzando en julio de 1936 la cifra de 19 unidades, entre buques de altura, gabarras y pontones. Al comienzo de la Guerra Civil española solo dos petroleros BADALONA y CAMPÁS, más los pontones TIFLIS, EBROS y TEXACO, se encontraban en el área controlada por el Gobierno de Burgos. El abastecimiento de combustibles en la zona nacional pudo conseguirse gracias al esfuerzo continuo de estos barcos, en muchos casos navegando por zonas muy peligrosas y necesitando incluso escolta de los buques de la Marina de Guerra. Concretamente al BADALONA le sorprendió el inicio de hostilidades navegando desde Santa Cruz de Tenerife a La Coruña, a donde llegó sin novedad incorporándose como buque militarizado a la Flota nacional. Durante todo el conflicto realizó un importantísimo trabajo como buque nodriza suministrando combustible a las diferentes embarcaciones de la Marina de Guerra nacional, y muy especialmente a los cruceros. En algunos de sus viajes entre la Península y puertos Canarios -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- La Sociedad Comercial de Oriente, majority owned by the Tobacco Company of the Philippines, hired in the early twenties to build two tankers with the British shipyard Swan Hunter and Wigham Richardson, Ltd., in Walker-on- Tyne. The original purpose of the two vessels, called COUNT OF CHURRUCA and Arnus, coconut oil was transported from the Philippines to Spain, one of the areas of business of that entity founded in 1918 in San Sebastian. The Arnus was a new ship in its time as it became the first of its kind in Spain, equipped with a diesel engine fitted. A complete description of the vessel is in the Marine Life article entitled "The new engine tanker Arnús ...." In April 1928 the MV Arnus was sold to the leasing company's monopoly Petroleos, S. A. (CAMPSA), because of the crisis that hit in the decade of the twenties to the shipping market that forced the liquidation of the Commercial Society of the East in 1927. Her new owners renamed it BADALONA. In the following years the public shipping fleet has grown very significantly due to several contracts awarded to different Spanish shipyards, in July 1936 reaching the figure of 19 units, including tall ships, barges and pontoons. ----------------------- The tireless naval researcher and populariser Vicente Sanahuja Albiñana, author of the successful blog vidamaritima.com, presents his latest publication entitled “The tankers and the Sociedad Comercial de Oriente”. In addition to a first-class documentary and photographic collection, it includes the contribution of the watercolours of Roberto Hernández, the Ship Illustrator, which provides a notable plus of quality, as is evident from the cover, which corresponds to the oil tanker “Conde de Churruca” and the finish on the back cover, which is that of the oil tanker “Arnús”. Throughout 256 pages, in landscape format, Vicente Sanahuja navigates through the history of the first Spanish oil tankers, which are those prior to the creation of CAMPSA and delves in a special way into one of the companies that was a protagonist of this initial stage of oil transport in Spain: the Sociedad Comercial de Oriente. However, the author pays attention to Desmarais, Fourcade and Gurtubay, Catasús and Co., Destilación Babe and Mercader and Londaiz. Then he delves into the Sociedad Comercial de Oriente, established in September 1919 in San Sebastián, of which 70% of its shares belonged to the Compañía General de Tabacos de Filipinas, one of the companies of the Marquis of Comillas, owner of the oil tankers “Conde de Churruca”, “Elcano” and “Arnús”. As is characteristic, Vicente Sanahuja exudes dedication, knowledge, criteria and a guiding thread. Interest down to the smallest detail, which repeatedly surprises us throughout the reading of his new book. A notable contribution that has the collaboration of the Museu Maritim de Barcelona (MMB), Arxiu Nacional de Catalunya, Museo El Dique and Exolum. Prologue by Manuel Rodríguez Aguilar, another of the country's prominent naval researchers, model by Mónica Calvo Artigas, edition by Ignasi Sanahuja Piera and ISBN 978-84-09-43445-9 ----------------------- El incansable investigador y divulgador naval Vicente Sanahuja Albiñana, autor del exitoso blog vidamaritima.com, nos presenta su última publicación titulada “Los buques tanque y la Sociedad Comercial de Oriente”. Además de un fondo documental y fotográfico de primer nivel, incluye el aporte de las acuarelas de Roberto Hernández, el Ilustrador de Barcos, lo que aporta un notorio plus de calidad, como así se pone de manifiesto desde la portada, que corresponde al petrolero “Conde de Churruca” y el remate de la contraportada, que es la del petrolero “Arnús”. A lo largo de 256 páginas, en formato apaisado, Vicente Sanahuja navega en la historia de los primeros buques petroleros españoles, que son aquellos anteriores a la creación de CAMPSA y profundiza de manera especial en una de las compañías protagonistas de esta etapa inicial del transporte de petróleo en España: la Sociedad Comercial de Oriente. No obstante, el autor presta atención a Desmarais, Fourcade y Gurtubay, Catasús y Cía., Destilación Babe y Mercader y Londaiz. Luego se mete de lleno en la Sociedad Comercial de Oriente, constituida en septiembre de 1919 en San Sebastián, de la que el 70% de sus acciones pertenecían a la Compañía General de Tabacos de Filipinas, una de las empresas del marqués de Comillas, armadora de los buques petroleros “Conde de Churruca”, “Elcano” y “Arnús”. Como es característico, Vicente Sanahuja derrocha dedicación, conocimiento, criterio e hilo conductor. Interés hasta el mínimo detalle, lo que nos sorprende reiteradamente a lo largo de la lectura de su nuevo libro. Una notable aportación que tiene la colaboración del Museu Maritim de Barcelona (MMB), Arxiu Nacional de Catalunya, Museo El Dique y Exolum.
