The agreement, signed with the OEM GE Marine in 2023, is TEI’s first step towards becoming a global MRO center for LM2500 engines. According to a statement released by the US Department of Defense, TEI will provide depot-level maintenance and overhaul services for the LM2500 engines used by the US Navy at TEI facilities during this 14-month period under an agreement that runs through October 2026.
The LM2500, a derivative of the TF39 and CF6-6 aviation engines, is one of the world’s most preferred naval gas turbines with a large number of operators worldwide. With this contract, which has a maximum value of $45.6 million, TEI has once again proven its global claim not only in aviation engines, but also in the maintenance of gas turbines derivative of aviation engines.
