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 company’s two upstream Canadian regions — Canadian Plains and Canadian Foothills. Bill Oliver, EnCana’s Executive Vice-President and President, Midstream & Marketing, takes over responsibility for EnCana’s Canadian oil and natural gas businesses in the Athabasca region of northeast Alberta, which includes the company’s 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, EnCana’s President & Chief Executive Officer, thanks Mr. Biemans for his many contributions to EnCana’s 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 America’s 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.
