Engine out terrain clearance

In regards to a takeoff, it seems most places, the engine out procedure is to fly runway heading(track) as the engineers have analyzed the surrounding terrain for obstacle clearance. But how far out are they required to analyze.

If someone decided to take a really long time with all their procedures and continue straight out, they could go quite far. There are some locations with distant mountains as we all know.
