Enbridge to Provide Additional Facilities at Cheecham Terminal for Surmont Phase 2

CALGARY, ALBERTA--(Marketwired - May 7, 2013) - Enbridge Inc. (TSX:ENB) (NYSE:ENB) announced today that it has entered into a terminal services agreement with ConocoPhillips Canada Resources Corp and Total E&P Canada Ltd. (the ConocoPhillips Surmont Partnership) to expand existing infrastructure at the Enbridge Cheecham Terminal to accommodate incremental bitumen production from Surmont's Phase 2 expansion. The approximately $0.3 billion expansion is expected to come into service in two phases through the fourth quarter 2014 and first quarter of 2015.

Enbridge will construct two new 450,000 barrel blend tanks and convert an existing tank from blend to diluent service, install receipt and distribution manifolds to facilitate transfers to Enbridge's Waupisoo Pipeline and upgrade associated measurement equipment. Enbridge brought a full expansion of the Waupisoo Pipeline into service in 2012 to, in part, serve the requirements of the growing production from the Surmont oil sands project.

"We're pleased to further our relationship with the ConocoPhillips Surmont Partnership by delivering timely and critical terminaling and transportation services that support the continued expansion of their oil sands projects," said Stephen J. Wuori, President, Liquids Pipelines and Major Projects. "We continue to work closely with our customers to develop innovative energy infrastructure solutions that meet their current and future needs, that utilize existing infrastructure and energy corridors wherever possible, and that can be built and operated safely, reliably and with respect for communities and the environment."

Enbridge's Regional Oil Sands System At-a-Glance:

Enbridge is the leading pipeline operator in the Fort McMurray to Edmonton/Hardisty corridor and well positioned to tie-in new oil sand developments to mainline pipelines and increase capacity for current customers. Enbridge's Regional Oil Sands Infrastructure includes the Athabasca and Waupisoo pipeline systems, which currently connect six producing oil sands projects, and which, through commercially secured expansions, will connect nine producing oil sands projects by 2015.
