NEWS RELEASE

Enbridge to Expand Christina Lake Lateral and Terminal Facilities

CALGARY, ALBERTA (January 28, 2010) — Enbridge Inc. (TSE:ENB, NYSE:ENB) announced today that it has entered into an agreement with FCCL Partnership to provide additional pipeline and terminal facilities to support expansion of the Christina Lake enhanced oil project, which is operated by Cenovus Energy. The estimated cost of the additional facilities is approximately $250 million with a planned in service date late in 2011.

Enbridge’s existing Christina Lake lateral and terminal facilities include two 8-inch lateral lines plus 240,000 barrels of tankage, and connect the enhanced oil project to Enbridge’s Athabasca Pipeline. The Athabasca Pipeline, together with the Waupisoo Pipeline and associated lateral and terminal facilities, constitute Enbridge’s Regional Oil Sands System delivering crude oil from five producing oil sands projects to the Hardisty and Edmonton mainline hubs. The additional Christina Lake facilities will include two 375,000 barrel tanks and 26 kilometers of 30-inch diameter pipeline, and will readily accommodate the current and planned future expansions of the Christina Lake enhanced oil project.

“The expansion of the Christina Lake enhanced oil project, following our securement of the Imperial Oil/ExxonMobil Kearl contract last year, provides further confirmation of the sustainable growth in oil sands production and regional pipeline infrastructure which we expect over the next decade. Projects sponsored by large, well financed oil companies remain economic at current oil price levels and are proceeding forward, though at a more measured pace than previously,” said Patrick D. Daniel, President and Chief Executive Officer of Enbridge.

“The Christina Lake expansion provides us with an investment opportunity in additional lateral and terminal facilities, as well as increased throughput and toll revenue on our Athabasca Pipeline. Enbridge will also realize benefits over the next four or five years and beyond given the commitment to transport future Christina Lake expansion volumes on the Athabasca Pipeline. Enbridge is well positioned to capture further opportunities to provide pipeline and terminaling services to other oil sands projects. This will involve new oil sands projects tying into our existing regional system, expansion of laterals serving existing projects, expansion of the Athabasca and Waupisoo Pipelines, and development of complete new regional pipelines.”

The 540-km (335-mile), 30-inch (762-mm) diameter Athabasca Pipeline, is designed to transport crude oil from the Athabasca region of Alberta, south to the Enbridge Mainline at Hardisty. The pipeline originates at Enbridge’s Athabasca Terminal, adjacent to Suncor’s upgrader just north of Fort McMurray. The Athabasca Terminal contains approximately 2.7 million barrels of tankage.

The 378-km (235-mile), 30-inch (762-mm) diameter Waupisoo Pipeline came into service June 1, 2008. The Waupisoo Pipeline originates at the Cheecham Terminal (100 km south of Fort McMurray), interconnects with the Athabasca Pipeline, and moves volumes south to the Enbridge Terminal in Edmonton.

Over time, additional receipt points and laterals have been added to Enbridge’s Regional Oil Sands System to accommodate injections into the Waupisoo and Athabasca pipelines from the Christina Lake, MacKay River, Surmont and Long Lake oil sands projects. Both the Athabasca Pipeline and the Waupisoo Pipeline are expandable by adding relatively inexpensive pumping capacity.
