Rolls-Royce and Kuwait Airways sign TotalCare agreement for the airline’s fleet of Trent 7000 engines

Rolls-Royce (LSE: RR., ADR: RYCEY) today announces it has signed a TotalCare service agreement with Kuwait Airways for the fleet of Rolls-Royce Trent 7000 engines that power the airline’s fleet of A330neos.

The agreement provides the airline with predictability as well as a known cost for the services and maintenance of the fleet.

TotalCare is designed to provide operational certainty for customers by transferring time on wing and maintenance cost risk back to Rolls-Royce. This industry-leading premium service offering is supported by data delivered through the Rolls-Royce advanced engine health monitoring system, which helps provide customers with increased operational availability, reliability and efficiency.

Rob Watson, President – Civil Aerospace, Rolls-Royce, said:

“We have a long-standing relationship with Kuwait Airways supporting their Trent 700 powered A330 fleet. Today takes that relationship one step further as we sign this new agreement for our TotalCare services package for their new fleet of Trent 7000 powered A330neos. We look forward to supporting Kuwait Airways in their continued expansion and in the delivery of their world-class passenger experience by providing them with predictability and certainty across their operation.”

Chairman of Kuwait Airways, Captain Ali Dukhan, added:

“We are glad to be signing the Rolls-Royce TotalCare service agreement, which will help us reach our strategic objectives of optimising our engine operations, increasing our fuel efficiencies, and enhancing the maintenance planning across our fleet. This will not only lead to lowering our costs and increasing our productivity but will also have a positive effect on our passengers as we will be able to better predict and prevent disruptions to our operations.”

The Trent 7000 is the latest addition to the Rolls-Royce Trent family of engines and exclusively powers the Airbus A330neo. After entering into service in early 2019, the Trent 7000 has flown more than one million hours, delivering exceptional reliability, sustainable performance and proven versatility. Incorporating the latest generation technology, the Trent 7000 enables 14% better aircraft fuel burn per seat (compared to the A330/Trent 700) and is already capable of flying on blends of up to 50% Sustainable Aviation Fuel.
