Tuwaiq project
The Tuwaiq Project connects the RIC 2 BSP substation to a new 115kV substation via 4.2 km of underground circuits, including complete upgrades to the protection, SCADA, and communication systems at both sites.
TUWAIQ Project – Connection of BSP RIC 2 Substation to TUWAIQ Casting and Forging Facility
The TUWAIQ Project involves connecting the existing BSP RIC 2 Substation to the new 115 kV Substation at the TUWAIQ Casting and Forging Facility. Key aspects of the project include:
Substation Connection
- Establishment of two underground circuits using fiber optic cable (FOC), spanning approximately 4.2 km
Scope at NG Room (New Substation) for Line Protection
- Installation of two new protection panels
- Installation of a new SOE (Sequence of Events) panel
- Installation of a new SCADA panel
- Installation of a new Annunciator panel
- Installation of a new TFR (Transformer) panel
- Installation of a new MPLS system
Modification and Installation at Existing RIC 2 Substation for Line Protection
- Installation of new protection panels
- Modifications to the SAS, TFR panels, and MPLS at the existing RIC 2 Substation to ensure compatibility and integration with the new 115 kV Substation and to enhance line protection
