Rolls-Royce, a British multinational aerospace and defence company recently announced that their Trent XWB-84 engine, which powers the Airbus A350-900 fleet, has accumulated a total of more than 10 million engine flying hours. This achievement marks another impressive milestone for the Trent engine programme. The Trent XWB-84 engine has a 15 percent fuel consumption advantage over the first Trent engine, can go further on less fuel, and also offers leading performance with lower noise levels.
The Trent XWB-84 entered into service in 2015. The engine has reached this landmark by supporting more than 30 airlines operating on a variety of different routes globally from short-range segments to ultra-long-range flights that fly for more than 18 hours, in this process further demonstrating the versatility and capability of the engine.
