P&W boosts Singapore presence with expanded engine centre
As part of a long-term plan to bolster its presence in Southeast Asia, Pratt & Whitney has expanded its Eagle Services Asia engine centre in Singapore, which it expects will boost geared turbofan (GTF) engine production at the facility by about two-thirds in 2024. During an opening ceremony on 19 February, the RTX subsidiary said the facility has been expanded by 4,459sq m. A joint venture between SIA Engineering and P&W, the Eagle Services facility is supported by P&W’s Singapore Technology Accelerator, which “integrates robotics, automation and machine learning to increase efficiency, lower stress on machine operators and increase safety for key MRO processes”, the engine maker says. The facility has completed more than 500 GTF overhauls since MRO capabilities came online in 2019.<br/>
