any hot work to be done , they should have properly check for issues like gases

 

the explosion happened to my neighbor due to gas inside the barge...they should have dilute the gas before carrying out the welding, or measures taken to ensure

[Kingcopa]

it is mandatory to do a gas check before commencing hotwork to ensure no flammable gas are present. It has been in place for donkey years. No reason for ignorance at all. Bor chap and bor hew.
