'''STEGAL''' (''Sachsen-Thüringen-Erdgas-Anbindungsleitung'') is a [[natural gas]] [[Pipeline transport|pipeline]] in [[Saxony]] and [[Thuringia]], [[Germany]]. It connects the [[Czech Republic|Czech]] Transgas pipeline at [[Olbernhau]] and the [[JAGAL]] pipeline (exporting gas from the [[Yamal–Europe pipeline]]) at [[Rückersdorf, Thuringia|Rückersdorf]] with the [[MIDAL]] pipeline at Reckrod. The pipeline is used for the [[Russia]]n gas import. The length of STEGAL is {{convert|314|km}} and the diameter of pipe is {{convert|800|mm|in}}. It is operated by [[Wingas|Wingas GmbH & Co. KG]].<ref name=germany><br />

Construction of the STEGAL pipeline started in 1991 and the pipeline was completed in 1992. In 1999, the [[JAGAL]] pipeline was connected with STEGAL at [[Rückersdorf, Thuringia|Rückersdorf]]. In March 2006, the {{convert|97|km|adj=on}} long STEGAL Loop, parallel to the main pipeline, was commissioned.<br />
<br />
Due to increasing demand, the STEGAL ring line was built and put into operation in 2005/2006. This is 97 km long and runs parallel to the STEGAL sections, increasing the capacity of the line by more than 400,000&nbsp;m<sup>3</sup> / h.<br />
