Singapore, 30 January 2020 – Singapore Technologies Engineering Ltd (ST Engineering), a global technology, defence and engineering group today announced that for the fourth quarter of 2019, its business sectors secured more than $1.5b of new contracts, bringing the full year 2019 contract value to $7b. Including the contract for one unit of Polar Security Cutter, the Group’s total announced contract value for 2019 is about $8b.

About $1.1b of new contracts were secured by the Group’s Aerospace sector, across its spectrum of aviation manufacturing and MRO service businesses including nacelle component, floor panel manufacturing, as well as airframe and engine maintenance services.
