Oil Tank Insurance

My current house insurance (with Prudential) doesn't cover my oil tank in the event of a leak. It covers the value of the oil but that's it, so a replacement tank, clean up of any oil spill, etc is not covered.
Does anyone know of an insurance company that will cover all oil tank eventualities, preferably as a separate policy to my current house insurance?
Also, is there any limit on the age of the tank?
Thanks

    NFU cover oil leaks. (tracing source, repairs caused by tracing source, cleaning up etc)
    However, NFU is a quality provider and not a budget provider though.  So, it will almost certainly cost more than a comparison site but the coverage will be more extensive in many areas.  
  • Thanks very much.
