EnCana announces leadership changes in
Canadian upstream operations
CALGARY, Alberta (July 13, 2006) EnCana Corporation (TSX, NYSE: ECA) today appointed Mike
Graham, Executive Vice-President and President, Canadian Foothills, as President of its Canadian
Region, which is a consolidation of the companys two upstream Canadian regions Canadian Plains
and Canadian Foothills. Bill Oliver, EnCanas Executive Vice-President and President, Midstream &
Marketing, takes over responsibility for EnCanas Canadian oil and natural gas businesses in the
Athabasca region of northeast Alberta, which includes the companys oilsands operations.
In addition, Roger Biemans, most recently President, Canadian Plains, has decided to leave EnCana
to pursue other interests. On behalf of EnCana, Randy Eresman, EnCanas President & Chief Executive
Officer, thanks Mr. Biemans for his many contributions to EnCanas accomplishments and wishes him
every success in his future endeavors.
EnCana Corporation
With an enterprise value of approximately US$50 billion, EnCana is one of North Americas leading
natural gas producers, is among the largest holders of gas and oil resource lands onshore North
America and is a technical and cost leader in the in-situ recovery of oilsands bitumen. EnCana
delivers predictable, reliable, profitable growth from its portfolio of long-life resource plays
situated in Canada and the United States. Contained in unconventional reservoirs, resource plays
are large contiguous accumulations of hydrocarbons, located in thick or areally extensive deposits,
that typically have lower geological and commercial development risk, lower average decline rates
and very long producing lives compared to conventional plays. The application of technology to
unlock the huge resource potential of these plays typically results in continuous increases in
production and reserves and decreases in costs over multiple decades of resource play life. EnCana
common shares trade on the Toronto and New York stock exchanges under the symbol ECA.
