State-owned Ecuadorian company operates an ERJ 145 jet
São José dos Campos, January 29, 2009 – Embraer and Petroecuador – Empresa Estatal
Petróleos del Ecuador – signed a ten-year service contract for the replacement parts Pool
program that will support the ERJ 145 operated by the Ecuadorian company. This special
customer service program provides optimized inventory control and reduces the initial
investment in replacement parts and infrastructure.
“It is very gratifying to sign this important
service contract in support of Petroecuador’s
ERJ 145 aircraft,” said Geraldo Ferreira,
Embraer Vice President, Customer Support –
Defense and Government Market. “We are
certain that the Pool program will fully meet
the expectations of our customer, in terms of
the availability of the replacement parts and
components needed for efficiently operating
the aircraft.”
Last September, Embraer delivered an ERJ 145 jet to Petroecuador. In a 50-seat
configuration, the aircraft transports the company’s employees between the airports of Quito
(Ecuador’s capital city), Lago Agrio, and El Coca (both in the country’s Amazon region).
The ERJ 145 jet is the first member of a diversified aircraft family that, to date, has seen more
than one thousand deliveries. In operation since 1996, the ERJ 145 family has surpassed 14
million flight hours. In the Defense and Government segment, Embraer aircraft fly for over 20
nations, worldwide.

About the parts Pool program
The replacement parts Pool program is a reliable tool that manages assets and component repairs,
allowing Embraer customers to reduce costs and guarantee the availability of parts that are essential to
the aircraft (“no go” and “go if”) at the time and place they are needed. With onsite storage and
exchange of parts, Embraer keeps a varied number of components in high demand, guaranteeing that
they are always available for replacements, thus minimizing worries about a quick turn-around-time for
requests. The Pool program also offers operators repair management, warranty actions, and a significant
reduction of storage costs, including replacement parts, excess materials, insurance, and others.
