Long Range Ultrasonic Testing LRUT
Long Range Ultrasonic Testing LRUT is a specialized NDT technique used to inspect long lengths of pipework for corrosion and defects without requiring full surface access or insulation removal. At CT Precise Engineering Sdn Bhd, we deliver LRUT services across Malaysia, serving major industrial areas such as Selangor, Johor, Kuala Lumpur, Penang, Pahang (Gebeng), Terengganu, Kedah, and Kemaman. This method is ideal for screening pipelines in hard-to-reach or buried sections.
Our experts provide rapid, cost-effective pipe condition assessments to support preventive maintenance and plant reliability.

LRUT inspection uses guided waves to detect corrosion and defects over long sections of pipelines from a single test point. In Malaysia, this method is essential for oil and gas, petrochemical, and power industries to assess pipelines running through coastal, offshore, and industrial areas.
Depending on pipe condition and environment, LRUT inspection can screen up to 50 metres in both directions from the test location, making it efficient for inspecting long stretches without extensive access or coating removal.
Yes. One of LRUT’s main advantages is its ability to detect defects through coatings and insulation, reducing preparation time and costs while avoiding damage to protective layers.
Many pipelines in Malaysia run through jungles, offshore platforms, and restricted industrial zones. LRUT allows fast inspection with minimal disruption, making it perfect for remote or difficult-to-access areas.
LRUT detects corrosion, wall thinning, pitting, weld defects, and other anomalies along the pipe wall. It is especially useful for locating corrosion under insulation or at support points where direct access is difficult.
We offer same-day mobilisation nationwide, including Johor Bahru, Penang, Terengganu, and Klang Valley. Our portable LRUT equipment makes setup quick, allowing inspections to start within hours of arrival.
