Anyone have any idea on how long a LPT Blade would be in service before it would need to be replaced?

The below link is somewhat related, gas turbine blades, but the is vague on timing.

Possible potential?
GE has over 25,000-33,000 Commercial in engines still in service. One stage of LPT Blades could be approx 2.5- 3.3 million blades or twice that if two stages are being looked at for replacement blades by EBM. Obviously this would be best case scenario and would be looking at all of their engines, which may or may not use EBM TiAl LPT Blades for replacement.
