NDE Services and Techniques
Since 1988, Master-Lee Energy Services has been a trusted provider of Eddy Current Testing (ECT) services for the power industry—initially focusing on the nuclear sector before expanding into fossil, petrochemical, and other industries. Over the years, we’ve grown to become one of the largest single-source suppliers of ECT services across a range of applications.
Eddy Current Testing is one of several Nondestructive Examination Methods we offer. The techniques available within each method allow inspection of materials to identify many potential issues – such as corrosion, pitting, cracking, and mechanical damage mechanisms like erosion, wear, and fretting – without damaging or compromising the integrity of components or materials. Because they are low-risk and performed with minimal asset downtime, NDE methods are widely adopted across most industries, ultimately improving asset management and uptime.

Why NDE Matters
As infrastructure and customer assets age, the demand for reliable, cost-effective inspections grows.

This makes it an essential part of modern asset management.
