Under the terms of sale, Enbridge will acquire the East Ohio Gas Company, Questar Gas Company, and Public Service Company of North Carolina from Dominion Energy.

Enbridge's stock has declined 10% over the last 12 months to trade at $48.16 per share.
The stock of Dominion Energy has fallen 43% in the past year to $46.79 U.S. a share.
