Albanah LLC has recently completed the implementation of DIgSILENT StationWare project for Saudi Aramco Company. This project provides a reliable web-based central protection settings database and management system for the complete power system substation data for all substations in SA electrical network, both to manage the various control parameters and to centrally store substation related information and data. StationWare went live on April 30^th, 2015. Saudi Aramco uses the system exclusively to issue, report, archive, communicate and manage protection settings and associated documentation.

The software stores and records all settings in a central database, allows modelling of all relevant workflow sequences, provides quick access to relay manuals, interfaces with manufacturer specific relay settings software, and integrates with PowerFactory software.


The project implementation covered many substations in the entire SA electrical network. Data was collected from all devices and equipment using different techniques and methods. Then software was populated with the collected data by making the appropriate models for all substation devices and equipment as per the client requirement.
