A small statistic of interest to a few of us. This month the 142nd A330 with GE engines flew. There are currently 141 A330s with PW flying so GE have clawed their way back in front of PW on the A330.
(For the record, RR are still well ahead with 195 deliveries.)

Thanks PM for your ever-vigilant tabs on the A330 engine race
Though to be honest, the market is more evenly divided than I ever thought possible - RR has 40.8% of the total flying. If you look at the 767, for example, GE & PW completely walloped the RR offering, possibly because of it's lack of 767-200 offering. Which may actually explain the relatively more even split on the A330s - all competitors had at least one offering for each model.
Do you have a breakdown of the A330 engine line-up on order?

Hey PM... good job keeping track of A330 Engine orders. Are the Singapore Airlines A330 numbers in there already? Probably not, because those are not flying yet. I don't recall an announcement of where SQ A330 engine order went to, either. Any clue, leads?

Quoting Aerokiwi (Reply 1):

Yes. (A more serious answer now that I'm back at my own PC.)
Total A330 orders (as far as I know) give GE 167 (25%), PW 184 (28%) and RR 269 (41%). 43 (6%) have not yet chosen an engine.
Quoting Raggi (Reply 3):
So, in the foreseeable future, will GE keep the silver medal, or will PW reclaim it?
A lot depends on planes that may or may not ever be built (such as the remaining US A330s with PW) but in terms of orders PW should move back ahead of GE.
Quoting Stitch (Reply 6): And I see RR landed the engine contract for Avion Aircraft Trading's eight A332Fs this morning.
So far the Trent 700 is the only engine to have been selected on the A33F.
A332 deliveries, by the way, amount to 265: PW have 60, GE have 92 and RR have 113.
