SQ B777's In Storage

I read recently that at least one and possibly more SQ B777s have been placed in storage or returned to the lessors.

Can anyone advise me which airframes they are.

Thanks in anticipation.

There is a shot of 9V-SQB without titles on airliners.net, mentioning that it has been placed in storage.

These are the derated version Trent 892B engines

None of the 777s are in storage as of now. All stored frames are back in service.

The photo doesn't look all that permanent. Usually the tyres are covered, etc.

Possibly just a transition to the updated scheme with larger titles

Maybe they parked it while they ordered some new paint.
