SR Technics Signs Two-Year Engine Maintenance Deal With Oman Air

Overview

• SR Technics and Oman Air have signed a two-year contract under which SR Technics will perform all engine maintenance work at its Zurich engine facility.
• The agreement upgrades a relationship that began with line maintenance in 2011 and makes Oman Air a named engine maintenance customer of SR Technics.
• SR Technics’ chief executive said the deal is a key step in the company’s MENA growth plan and Oman Air’s operations chief said the partnership strengthens the airline’s maintenance capabilities.
• By centralizing heavy engine work in Zurich, Oman Air expects improved fleet efficiency and operational resilience through access to specialized technical resources and spare-part support.
• The deal reflects a wider industry practice of airlines outsourcing complex engine overhaul work to established MRO hubs and could mean more engines moved to Switzerland for planned shop visits, with the aim of steadier service for passengers.
