ST Engineering’s Aerospace arm has secured a five-year nacelle maintenance contract from Qantas Airways.
Under the agreement, ST Engineering will provide nacelle maintenance services starting from 2020 to the airline’s Boeing 737-800 and Airbus A330 fleet. ST Engineering’s solutions for aircraft engine nacelles cover both aftermarket services and original equipment manufacturing, which are supported by a network of distribution centers, satellite stores and repair shops across the globe.
In Stockholm, the Group has a Nacelle MRO facility that covers a wide range of engine nacelles including the latest Boeing 787 Trent 1000 and GenX engine nacelles. In Middle River, U.S., the Group has a facility specializing in the design and production of thrust reversers, engine nacelle components and other aerostructures.
The Middle River facility will, starting in early 2020, have the MRO capabilities to provide nacelle component maintenance services. Through such new capability set-up, customers will get to enjoy integrated solutions in both manufacturing and aftermarket care across a range of nacelle systems under one roof.
