By Tim Hepher PARIS (Reuters) - Airbus is set to upgrade its A330 with engines provided exclusively by Rolls-Royce, setting the stage for a bitter new phase in a battle for wide-body jet orders with Boeing's 787 Dreamliner, people familiar with the matter said. Shares in Airbus and Rolls-Royce both rose as much as 1.8 percent against a flat market in early Friday trading. It remains unclear whether Airbus will officially unveil the new project at the world's premier aviation event, since it usually waits to secure orders first. Airbus, which has promised investors a decision before the end of the year on whether to revamp the 253- to 295-seat A330 passenger jet, said none had been taken so far.
