RB211

Product details

The industrial RB211 is derived from the aerospace RB211, which is the chosen power plant for several large airliners.

Thanks to extensive development, the RB211 is most reliable and easily maintained industrial gas turbine available today.

Auxiliary equipment such as intake air filtration, acoustics and lubrication all form part of the Rolls-Royce scope of supply for oil and gas applications.

Compressor set

The RB211 gas turbine package matches the technologically advanced Rolls-Royce gas generator with the efficiency of the RT56, RT62 or RT61 power turbine. The aero derivative industrial design has demonstrated outstanding reliability, with hundreds of RB211 gas turbines installed worldwide, with 15 million operating hours.

These gas turbine systems have been refined through experience, including remote and offshore applications where availability and reliability are of crucial importance. With superior performance retention and relative ease of overhaul, RB211 systems provide an ideal solution for today's applications.
