STEGAL

The Saxony-Thuringia natural gas pipeline ( STEGAL ) is a natural gas pipeline in Germany.

The STEGAL is a 313 km long, running in a west-east direction line since October 1991 with diameters of DN 800 ( in some sections: DN 1000) was built. Already in 1992 were carried out to customers in Saxony and Thuringia by the STEGAL first gas deliveries. The total completion in 1993, together with the expanded gas storage Rehden (1.5 billion cubic meters of working gas ) and MIDAL (619 miles) was completed.

The STEGAL binds in Olbernhau (Saxony ) to the over the Czech Republic, Slovakia and the Ukraine 's leading natural gas pipeline Trans gas from Russia and via Rückersdorf ( Thuringia) in Jena and Eischleben at Erfurt to MIDAL, binds to the in Reckrod (North East Hesse ). Since September 1999, exists in Rückersdorf a connection to the natural gas transmission JAGAL.

Due to increasing demand, the STEGAL ring line was built in the years 2005/2006 and put into operation. This is 97 km long, and runs parallel to the STEGAL portions whereby the capacity of the line has been increased to more than 400,000 m³ / h.

The beginning of 2011 from Lubmin ( Baltic Sea) coming OPAL pipeline was connected in Olbernhau.

The operator of the STEGAL is GASCADE.
