Industrial Engine Services
Our Engine Services Unit is home to Abu Dhabi’s first, dedicated facility for maintenance, repair and overhaul of industrial gas turbines, commonly used in the oil and gas sectors.
Established in 1998, the shop started by performing minor repairs on Rolls-Royce Avon engines. Today, it has grown into a full-service, 15,000ft2 modern facility, with four engine overhaul bays and two hydraulic engine lifts. The centre supports a wide range of powerplant products for the oil and gas industries, as well as the power generation industry.
Abu Dhabi Aircraft Technologies’ industrial propulsion services shop has grown significantly, forcing us to construct a new, state-of-the-art facility to accommodate our growing business. The new facility, on the western part of Abu Dhabi Aircraft Technologies’ premises, is due to open in December 2007.
