NOVEMBER 02, 2018 / 1:00PM GMT, Q3 2018 Enbridge Inc, Enbridge Income Fund Holdings, Enbridge Energy Partners LP and Spectra Energy
Partners LP Earnings Call Al Monaco Enbridge Inc.President, CEO & Director Well, I guess its Al here, Robert. Tough for us to tell. Certainly, weve heard the same sort of rumblings. I think the other factors other
than just peer production is the amount of storage thats sitting there, all over Western Canada, that is really at extremely high levels. And so its not just a matter of production, its a matter of clearing out the amount of
storage and weve seen that play out elsewhere in North America as well. So I would say, in terms of our system, the nature of it and were in the discounts, so I dont see it affecting the volumes on our line, certainly in any
negative way. The reality is that, every barrel wants to get out and the most ideal exit point is on the mainline system, because of number of factors, including the markets. It sees and so forth. So I dont see it impacting our volumes going
forward. Were full than we expected, be full next year, thats the start of the bottom line, I guess. Operator Our next question comes from Linda with TD Securities. Linda Ezergailis TD Securities Equity ResearchResearch Analyst I
know well get some fulsome updates at your upcoming Investor Day, but maybe you can just help us think about how you might consider further asset sales? And what will be the most important criteria, whether it be further strategic focus in
your core business? Or maybe financing additional growth opportunities, whether its prefunding or in conjunction with any sort of new project announcements. And specifically, Im thinking of DCP and how youre thinking of it? And
maybe comment on other kind of less core, current business will be appreciated? Al Monaco Enbridge Inc.President, CEO & Director Okay. Well, I guess maybe to the first part of the question, when you step back from it, weve got
some, lets call it, non-core assets still in the house. Generally speaking though the last 3 big businesses are very core to us and we dont see anything happening there. The criteria, I think, will, all be as they usually are, weve
got a couple of these assets still in the hopper for potential sale and its really going to depend on at this point on type of valuation that we see for those, I mean, were in good shape from a balance sheet perspective, but certainly,
if we see good value coming our way, which we have, as youve seen throughout 2018 on some of the deals that weve done. I think thats probably the main one. Certainly providing additional financial flexibility is always good for us.
Especially when you can attract good values, wed be very keen on putting away some more flexibility if the valuations are there. But I think, overall, as John described, being in that 4.5 to 5.x range gives us a lot of comfort already. But
certainly, we could build more, if we see the right values. In terms of DCP, this is in the non-core asset category, simply because the majority of the business is a G&P related. I guess, though, to be fair theyve done a very good job in
transitioning their business to more fee-based component, more contracted capacity, great job on lowering costs. I think their NGL volumes and obviously, the price outlook now are attractive and they are in good basins. So I think, given the more
than doubling of our asset sale target that we had theres no immediate rush on this, given where they are and the work they are doing. I think weve demonstrated that well make good capital allocation decisions, when we see good
value and will continue to monitor that. In the meantime, DCP is performing well and working well for us from a financial point of view. Linda Ezergailis TD Securities Equity ResearchResearch Analyst Appreciate that context. And just as a
follow up, one of the biggest variable for my assumptions next year will the timeline of L3R, and Ive done my best. But Im just wondering, when we might get better clarity on tightening the in-service date of the second half of 2019? And
what key factors we should we be looking for in terms of where it falls in that range? Specifically, Im wondering, for example, if you dont start to get everything you want in Q1, you might miss some construction windows? Or are you
going to give us an update, I guess on the Investor Day, and I just need to sit tight? D. Guy Jarvis Enbridge Inc.Executive VP & President of Liquids Pipelines Linda, its Guy. I dont know if theres going to be a
particular date or event out there that you can point to that will give any of us that further granularity that youre looking for. Clearly, our team is looking at a wide range of potential options and have you go faster or potentially go
slower. We have proven historically, if you go back to the days of our construction of Alberta Clipper that you can execute these things quite quickly, if youre well planned and we think were going to be so. Were confident in that
guidance to the second half of next year based on our industry and that the planning that were doing, but its going to be very, very difficult to pin down the date any further. THOMSON REUTERS | Contact Us 10 ©2018 Thomson Reuters.
