Sounds like the vehicle had oil neglect in a previous lifetime and sludged up. Not the fault of semi synthetic, but full synthetic would be better. Sludge once formed is a problem as bits come loose and restrict oil flow at the oil pickup screen.
These engine do fail when the oil is neglected and the results may be time delayed.
The oil pressure relief valve should also be inspected to see if it is stuck open on grud or metal bits.
