An industry source says New Brunswickers can expect a split in fuel prices, with gas dipping and diesel climbing.

Regular self‑serve gasoline is expected to drop by nearly three cents per litre, while diesel is expected to rise by nearly three cents on Thursday night.

Maximum prices currently range from $1.53 per litre for regular self-serve to $1.68 for diesel, but most stations are selling for a few cents less.

In Nova Scotia, regular self-serve ranges from $1.40 to $1.44 per litre, while diesel is selling for between $1.55 and $1.59 per litre.

On Prince Edward Island, the price for regular self-serve is around $1.48 per litre, diesel costs around $1.62 per litre, and home heating oil is selling for a maximum of $1.22 per litre.
