KAHRAMAA is the sole distributer of Electricity and Water in
the State of Qatar.
• In the Electricity sector KAHRAMAA operates with 230
Primary High Voltage Substations connected by a total of 1,880
km of Primary Overhead Transmission Lines and 2,530 km of
underground HV cable network. The network is coupled with
12,150 Medium voltage substations (11 kV) and more than
11,600 kilometres of underground and overhead cable lines.
• KAHRAMAA maintains a water infrastructure consisting of
6789 Km of Water pipeline networks with 28 Storage Reservoirs
having total capacity of 641.5 Million Gallons.
Mission
Objectives
To provide Safe, Secure, Reliable & Adequate electricity supply to all type of
customers in the state of Qatar, in conformance to international and regional
standards and in a timely manner with the least possible cost.
1. Customer Satisfaction
• Understand and meet customers’ needs and
expectations
2. Supply Efficiency
• High Quality Power supply
• Dispatch IPP through a secure and reliable network
3. Quality
• Meet the overall Electricity quality needs through least
number of Power Interruptions & Eliminate Outages
• Committed to Plan and Design Qatar’s
Electrical Network development using efficient
technologies, data and materials and strive to
satisfy our customers.
• Coordinate with other utility agencies to have
a harmonious expansion of State’s assets and
infrastructure.
• Review and update Material Specifications.
Ascertain the international standard materials
are used in KM’s Network.
How to
Improve Power System Reliability
Maintain Power Quality
Optimally Utilize the Power Delivery Assets
Reduce the equipment failures
Reduce the planned / unplanned outages in the system
Increase the awareness for energy Conservation - Tarsheed
Integrate Diesel Generator based micro grids into main network
Fishbone Diagram is helpful in
identifying potential factors
causing an overall effect
Equipment Failure
Reduces System Reliability
Reduces Power Quality
Over utilization of Assets
Increase in Equipment Failures
Decrease in Power Quality
Under utilization of Assets
Increases Network Cost
Un utilized Installed Capacity
Outages
Reduces System Reliability
Reduction in utility income
Bigger challenges provide bigger opportunities
Meeting these challenges gives raise to better
rewards
Rewards are in terms to Reliability, Quality,
efficiency and economic benefits to consumers and
to the utility

and increasing
A GIS System that can handle
Comprehensive and accurate inventory of Electrical
Assets
Interconnectivity between the assets with Under
ground and Overhead lines
A Comprehensive Service Information that is integrated
to the GIS System and that can be retrieved from within
the GIS software
Traceable network from the Electrical feeder to the
connected customers along with all the electrical assets
in between
A system that can be integrated with any database with
ease.
An Electrical aware GIS system can

Transformer
Switch
Bus Bar
Circuit Breaker
Land Base
Topography
Parcels
Make it easy to locate the Electrical Assets
Help create a comprehensive maintenance schedule
for a given area / zone
Identify the customers effected for switching
programs
Effectively managing high priority areas while
preventive maintenance scheduling
Identifying the electrical feeders in an outage
Integrating customer messaging system for any
electrical activity
KAHRAMAA has awarded a contract
to implement an Enterprise GIS
solution using ArcFM technology
ArcFM™ is a powerful extension of ESRI's ArcGIS®
platform that provides a complete, enterprise
utility solution specially for energy sector.
The ArcFM Solution allows utility businesses to make
use of a single integrated environment to manage
and map multiple assets, leveraging all the power of
ArcGIS’s object-oriented system.
