Pratt & Whitney Canada has expanded maintenance, repair and overhaul services at its Singapore facility, adding support for helicopter and regional turboprop engines as operators across Asia Pacific seek faster access to heavy maintenance capacity.

The facility now supports the PT6C-67C engine powering more than 300 Leonardo AW139 helicopters operating in the region, while also increasing global overhaul capacity for the PW127XT engine used on ATR 42 and ATR 72 aircraft and the future Deutsche Aircraft D328eco. Pratt & Whitney is an RTX business.

“Pratt & Whitney Canada's Singapore facility has been a cornerstone of our Asia Pacific operations for over four decades, delivering heavy maintenance support to regional turboprop and APU operators,” says Anthony Rossi, vice president, customer service, Pratt & Whitney Canada. “With the addition of these new heavy MRO services, we are better positioned to meet rising demand from our in-region customers by offering advanced, localised maintenance solutions and reducing turnaround times.”

Opened in 1983, the Singapore site has become a central support hub for Pratt & Whitney Canada customers across Asia Pacific, specialising in turboprop engine overhaul, repair and front-line maintenance services.

The expanded PT6C-67C capability introduces turboshaft maintenance to the facility for the first time, including full overhaul work supported by a modular test cell. Existing PW100 support capability has also been broadened to include full PW127XT overhauls.

Pratt & Whitney Canada says more than 3,000 PT6C-67C engines have been delivered globally, accumulating over 10 million flight hours. The wider PW100 engine family has exceeded 220 million flight hours, including 300,000 hours logged by the PW127XT.
