HOUSTON, July 8 -- Holly Corp., its refining subsidiary Holly Energy Partners LLC, both of Dallas; and Enbridge Inc., Toronto, plan to lay a crude oil pipeline from the terminus of Enbridge's Frontier Pipeline at Evanston, Wyo., to Holly's 25,000 b/d Woods Cross refinery near Salt Lake City, Utah.

Willbros Engineers SLC was chosen for pipeline route selection and design. Permit work is under way, and construction is expected to start in second quarter 2006.

The pipeline is being constructed to reduce refiners' crude oil supply constraints, especially for heavy Canadian crude oil.
