The T2 tanker, or T2, was a class of oil tanker constructed and produced in large quantities in the United States during World War II. Only the T3 tankers were larger "navy oilers" of the period. Some 533 T2s were built between 1940 and the end of 1945. They were used to transport fuel oil, diesel fuel, gasoline and sometimes black oil-crude oil. Post war many T2s remained in use; like other hastily built World War II ships pressed into peacetime service, there were safety concerns. As was found during the war, the United States Coast Guard Marine Board of Investigation in 1952 stated that in cold weather the ships were prone to metal fatigue cracking, so were "belted" with steel straps. This occurred after two T2s, Pendleton and Fort Mercer, split in two off Cape Cod within hours of each

Una petroliera T2 Le petroliere T2 avevano per l'epoca delle dimensioni rilevanti, superate solo dalle petroliere T3, che però furono costruite solo in cinque esemplari. 500 furono le T2 costruite tra il 1940 e il 1945, molte delle quali furono utilizzate per decenni dopo la fine della guerra. Come altre navi realizzate in questo periodo, andarono incontro a problemi di sicurezza: dopo che nel 1952 due T2 - la SS Pendleton e la SS Fort Mercer - andarono perdute a distanza di poche ore spezzandosi in due tronconi (l'equipaggio della Pendleton venne tratto in salvo da una difficilissima e storica operazione cond (it)
