NEWS RELEASE
Enbridge completes acquisition of Gulf of Mexico offshore systems
CALGARY, Alberta, January 3, 2005 Enbridge Inc. today announced that its wholly-owned U.S. subsidiary, Enbridge (U.S.) Inc., has completed the purchase, effective January 1, 2005, of Shell Gas Transmission, LLC (SGT) from Shell US Gas & Power LLC for US$613 million plus associated working capital.
The newly acquired Gulf of Mexico offshore natural gas pipeline assets include ownership interests in 11 transmission and gathering pipelines in five major pipeline corridors that transport approximately 3 billion cubic feet per day. The 1,482 miles (2380 kilometres) of pipeline transport approximately half of all deepwater natural gas production in the Gulf of Mexico.
The successful acquisition of these strategic offshore Gulf assets underlines our commitment to organic growth and to being one of the nations leading energy transporters, said Dan C. Tutcher, Enbridge Group Vice President, Transportation South. We are now well positioned to move much of the developing deepwater gas supply and to accommodate the potential transport needs of several proposed LNG re-gasification projects.
I am also extremely pleased that most of the SGT employees and management team have chosen to join our Houston-based business unit, which will enable us to quickly integrate these assets into our natural gas business and will further add to the industry knowledge and savvy of our excellent natural gas operations and business teams.
Enbridge Inc. is a leader in energy transportation and distribution in North America and internationally. As a transporter of energy, Enbridge operates, in Canada and the U.S., the worlds longest crude oil and liquids transportation system. The Company also has international operations and a growing involvement in the natural gas transmission and midstream businesses. As a distributor of energy, Enbridge owns and operates Canadas largest natural gas distribution company, and provides distribution services in Ontario, Quebec, New Brunswick and New York State. Enbridge employs approximately 4,000 people, primarily in Canada, the U.S. and South America. Enbridges common shares trade on the Toronto Stock Exchange in Canada and on the New York Stock Exchange in the U.S. under the symbol ENB.
