IP tools will be configured to suit change in wall thickness along the pipeline, what you need to consider is the tapering of the wall thickness change (1:4 normally. IP tools [both MFL and UT] have a maximum wall thickness limitation for a particular diameter.
I would suggest you consult IP vendors such GE-PII, ROSEN or TDW with your specific data.
