Germany�s domestic Natural Gas transmission network facilitates the movement of natural gas from import terminals to its interior consumption centers. Wingas operates the 440-mile Mitte-Deutschland-Anbindungs-Leitung (MIDAL) system, which runs the length of the entire country and connects the North Sea coast with Kahrlsruhe.
With a capacity of 1.2 Bcf per day (Bcf/d), MIDAL allows Germany to import natural gas from Norway through receiving terminals in Emden and Dornum. Also linking the North Sea coast with the interior is the Norddeutsche Erdgas Transversale (NETRA), a 210-mile, 2.1 Bcf/d system operated by a consortium led by E.ON Ruhrgas. NETRA links the Emden and Dornum receiving terminals with eastern Germany.

There are two important spur lines off MIDAL. Wingas and E.ON jointly operate the 80-mile Rehden-Hamburg Gas Pipeline (RHG), which connects Hamburg to the MIDAL system. Second, Wingas operates the 200-mile WEDAL system that links the MIDAL pipeline with the Belgian border near Aachen.
Wingas operates the Jamal-Gas-Anbindungs-Leitung (JAGAL) pipeline system, which brings Russian natural gas into eastern Germany via Poland. The 70-mile JAGAL I connects Mallnow, on the Polish border, to Baruth, south of Berlin. JAGAL II extends 140 miles from Baruth to Rueckersdorf, in the state of Thueringen. Overall system capacity of JAGAL is 2.3 Bcf/d.
