Engine Alliance has inaugurated full engine
maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) work at Pratt & Whitney
Eagle Services Asia in Singapore.
The first GP7200 is expected to be
inducted at the facility later in the quarter once compliance
testing is completed.
“The launch of GP7200 MRO work at the
Singapore-based engine center continues our commitment to
providing the strongest service and support network for the A380,”
said Kevin Vicha, president, Engine Alliance. “This fourth
overhaul facility allows us to provide flexible service options
and capacity to meet our customers’ needs.”
The facility recently finished its
first low pressure compressor (LPC) module piece-part overhaul for
Engine Alliance. It is responsible for the disassembly, assembly
and balancing of the LPC which involves maintenance work for the
five-stage low-pressure compressor, fan hub, drum, blades and
stator assembly.
“Pratt & Whitney Eagle Services Asia is proud to
expand our services to the EA-powered A380 fleet,” said Brendon
McWilliam, senior director, Aftermarket Operations Asia-Pacific,
Pratt & Whitney. “The engine center is a center of excellence for
engine overhaul and repair services across multiple engine lines.
We deliver high-quality aftermarket services for Asia-Pacific
airlines as they meet the region’s growing demand for travel.”
