Dear All,

Please note that we have an ASME Coded vessel which have been fabricated in year 2007 however Hydro Static Test carried out in Year 2008.

Kindly advise in this case what should be the Year of Built.Even the MDR Form U-1A does not specify anything in clause 4 of the form.

Hello Shabu,

As hydrotest is the last and very very imp. Manufacturing stage of any vessel.
So not to worry about 2007 manufacturing it should be 2008 only.

Shabu,

I fully agree with Nirai, the test is part of the construction, and the year built should be the year of final inspection.

(Just between you and me, I do not think there will be a lot of trouble when the final inspection is delayed for January and the nameplate stamped 2007)

It may induce some need to explain whether the right code edition has been used, so be prepared to know where is the place in the book to point your finger at when asked.

Dear SABu

Same situation we faced on year end of 2007. our all other vessel are finished hydro test within 31st December. But only two vessels left for 2008. We finished Hydro on 1st and 2nd January . Before hydro we clear this situation with our AI . And he suggested us to use Year of buid as 2008. thts the reason we replaced name plates for 2008.


Inthu. :-)
