Rolls-Royce delivers first Singapore-produced Trent 900
Paul O’Neil, Rolls-Royce, Director of Seletar Campus, said: "The delivery of the first Trent aero engine produced in Singapore is a significant milestone for us. It represents a huge collaborative effort with colleagues in the UK supporting our team here to ensure that the engine, produced to our exacting standards, was delivered on time."
The Trent 900 aero engine was developed for the Airbus A380 family and delivers the lowest lifetime fuel burn in addition to its excellent environmental attributes. The Trent 900 has been selected by 11 of the 17 airlines who operate the aircraft.
The 154,000 square metre Rolls-Royce Seletar Campus is the largest aerospace facility in Singapore. Opened by the Prime Minister of Singapore, Mr Lee Hsien Loong in February 2012, the Campus includes a Trent Aero Engine Assembly and Test Unit; a Wide Chord Fan Blade manufacturing facility; an Advanced Technology Centre; and a Regional Training Centre.
