 
Our now established relationship with Singapore Airlines began
when the airline chose the Trent 800 engine for its Boeing
777 aircraft in 1995, representing the largest order in Rolls-Royce
history at the time.
Since then one facet of our continuing and growing partnership
with Singapore is represented by the signing of two joint
venture agreements with Singapore Airlines' Engineering
Company. These cover aero engine component repair and maintenance
and are both in full operation.
Since the divestment of Parsons in the late 1990s Rolls-Royce
has acquired two companies with substantial presence in
Singapore: Cooper Bessimer Rotating, an Oil & Gas equipment
and services company, and Vickers plc, a specialist marine
design and equipment supply company.
