Calgary, Alberta – January 4, 2013 – Enbridge Inc. (NYSE, TSX: ENB) today announced further expansion of the Canadian mainline system between Hardisty, Alberta, and the U.S. border. The expansion will add an additional 230,000 barrels per day of capacity at an estimated cost of approximately $0.4 billion and involves increased pumping horsepower, with no line pipe construction.
