CREDIT FACILITIES

The following table provides details of our committed credit facilities as at September 30, 2019:

(millions of Canadian dollars)
Enbridge Inc.	2021-2024	7,024	6,400	624

1 Includes facility draws and commercial paper issuances that are back-stopped by credit facilities.

On February 7, 2019 and February 8, 2019, we terminated certain Canadian and United States dollar credit facilities, including facilities held by Enbridge, Enbridge Gas Inc. (EGI), EEP and SEP. We also increased existing facilities or obtained new facilities to replace the terminated ones under Enbridge, Enbridge (U.S.) Inc. and EGI. As a result, our total credit facility availability increased by approximately $444 million.

On May 16, 2019, Enbridge Inc. entered into a three year, non-revolving, extendible credit facility for $641 million (¥52.5 billion) with a syndicate of Japanese banks.

On July 18, 2019, Enbridge Inc. entered into a five year, non-revolving, bilateral credit facility for $500 million with an Asian bank.

In addition to the committed credit facilities noted above, we maintain $928 million of uncommitted demand credit facilities, of which $588 million were unutilized as at September 30, 2019. As at December 31, 2018, we had $807 million of uncommitted credit facilities, of which $548 million were unutilized.

Our credit facilities carry a weighted average standby fee of 0.1% per annum on the unused portion and draws bear interest at market rates. Certain credit facilities serve as a back-stop to the commercial paper programs and we have the option to extend such facilities, which are currently scheduled to mature from 2021 to 2024.

As at September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, commercial paper and credit facility draws, net of short-term borrowings and non-revolving credit facilities that mature within one year, of $11,634 million and $7,967 million, respectively, were supported by the availability of long-term committed credit facilities and therefore have been classified as long-term debt.
