Ziad Karim Al-Haremi, Chief Executive Officer of Oman Air, said, “Selection of the Rolls-Royce engine represents the beginning of a new relationship for Oman Air with Rolls-Royce on this important fleet of aircraft.” Trent 700 engines are fitted to 41% of the total A330 fleet worldwide.

Oman Air’s Engineering Division will work with Rolls-Royce to introduce the latest Trent family technology to the Trent 700, through the continuous improvement programme, resulting in benefits such as lower fuel burn, extended times between overhaul and a better mechanical design to reduce life-cycle costs.

The Total Care package offered by Rolls-Royce is tailored to individual operators and offers a range of services covering all aspects of asset management in support of its Civil Aerospace products. Services include elements such as predictive maintenance, logistics management, and global repair and overhaul offerings.

Total Care will help Oman Air to remove uncertainties from engine management and improve operational reliability for operators through a mutually aligned business relationship.
