Narrative:
We were operating a saab 340 from dtw-cak. We were in cruise at 11000 ft when we were alerted of a low engine oil pressure on our right engine from our master warning system. We ran our emergency checklist, which led us to shut down the right engine in flight. After we did this, we declared an emergency, notified our dispatch and maintenance control on our company frequency, and requested vectors to cle, the nearest airport. We landed uneventfully and without further incident.
