Rolls-Royce nets CorporateCare contract with NetJets Middle East

Notes and media contacts

Rolls-Royce has a growing presence in the Middle East, where it is playing an important role in the development of the region across all the Group's sectors - civil aerospace, defence aerospace, marine and energy.
Rolls-Royce forecasts the size of the global corporate aircraft market opportunity at 79,000 engines worth $110bn over the next 20 years. Much of this demand is anticipated to come from the Middle East where the company expects a substantial increase in the region's 220 aircraft fleet, 30 percent of which is Rolls-Royce powered.
Rolls-Royce powers 15 different in-service business jet types in a fleet of 2,100 aircraft. Over one third of this fleet is covered by a long-term maintenance agreement with Rolls-Royce.
The company's services activity continues to expand and is valued highly by customers worldwide. Service agreements broaden the opportunity to increase aftermarket revenues, which in turn provide considerable visibility of earnings into the future.
Rolls-Royce has a long history of offering programs that provide service support of the operator's engines in return for a fixed payment per hour flown. Its trademarked "Power by the Hour" program has been in existence against the Viper engine, installed in the Raytheon (HS) 125 corporate jet, for well over 30 years.
The company has also managed Fleet Hour Contracts with several customers since the inception of the RB211 engine in the early 1970s. Today, Rolls-Royce has taken its service to new levels with its CorporateCare, TotalCare and On-Wing Care service center support programs.
