There’s not much change expected to be coming to gas pumps in Nova Scotia this week.

Our newsroom is predicting that prices will remain unchanged when they are reset at midnight.

George Murphy of Consumers for Fair Gas Prices told News 95.7 there is a lot of product on the markets and it’s keeping prices stable.

“A huge upwelling of U.S. domestic production is starting to play down on the price here,” said Murphy.  “There’s an awful lot of crude oil out there on the markets too.”

Prices in New Brunswick increased by 2/10ths cents to a new maximum price of $131.1.
