Ultrasonic Thickness Gauging (UTG) Services by VU Marine

Ensuring Vessel Safety & Compliance with Expert UTG Solutions

UTG specialist VU Marine delivers precise non-invasive inspection methods to help shipowners maintain structural integrity through Ultrasonic Thickness Gauging (UTG). We offer service in Dubai alongside Europe and Gulf countries and South Africa and South America to support vessels in their compliance maintenance alongside lifespan extension and repair cost prevention.

What is Ultrasonic Thickness Gauging (UTG)?

The non-invasive measure of ship structures and hulls along with pipelines relies on UTG to provide thickness assessments. Through its ability to detect corrosion alongside material degradation and wear UTG helps vessels maintain operational readiness while still meeting International Maritime Organization and IACS standards.
