An EAT Leipzig Airbus A330-200, registration D-ALOS performing flight QY-547 from Hong Kong (China) to Almaty (Kazakhstan), was climbing out of Hong Kong's runway 07R when the crew stopped the climb at 3000 feet reporting an engine (Trent 772) failure. The crew subsequently advised that the right hand engine had been shut down and positioned for an approach to runway 07R completing a safe landing on the runway. The aircraft needed to be towed off the runway.
The aircraft is still on the ground in Hong Kong about 13 hours after landing back.
