	Can you elaborate more about the nature of the vessel? There are many different ways of testing, depending on what type of vessel and the purpose it serves. There are also safety tests for prototypes and routine tests for production. These are all quite different. Some vessels are welded, others not. __________________ Plenty of room here

	A simple telephone call to the Engineer/Surveyor for the company providing burst indemnity insurance cover is all that is needed to answer this question, and many more. __________________ "Did you get my e-mail?" - "The biggest problem in communication is the illusion that it has taken place" - George Bernard Shaw, 1856

	Quite. It is troubling how many intelligent and gifted minds completely fail to see the bleedin' obvious. __________________ "Did you get my e-mail?" - "The biggest problem in communication is the illusion that it has taken place" - George Bernard Shaw, 1856
