Diesel Shortage

[lloydguy]

As I have stated on other threads in the past about fuel shortages,Besides the turnaround
at the Husky upgrader here,I'm pretty sure the rail car's that are all heading for the border
are all full and on-time.I think it's pretty sad the way alot of deals are done in this country.

Yup husky and ufa all out. Last week mist days in drayton. We're hoarding now. Lol. Dipsticks funny how shutdowns are alway scheduled right when all the drills brigs are firing up and boilers are going to be needed soon etc
Highest demand lowest supply send price sky high
I love my ecoboost

As of 6:00AM this morning Petro in Nisku had fuel - UFA in drayton had fuel, whitecourt UFA roped off and completely out. Petro had some but won't last long with the amount of trucks that were lined up waiting to get fuel what a ****show

You can thank all the environmentalist for these diesel shortages every year. They stood in the way of building refineries for years. A refinery is being built as of a few weeks ago near Redwater. The Alberta government is teaming up with CNRL. It's going to take 8 years to complete. Should have been started 8 years ago.

Canada?s first new refinery in decades breaks ground - The Globe and Mail

Whitecourt is fully stocked again, UFA is open again and times have been lifted from Petro

Awesome, now can they maintain that through winter?

was in Drayton yesterday and its not just card locks ... the mohawak has limited you to $130 @ 1.21 L

Ridiculousness

Petro-canada cardlock on 50th street was out the other day.......

 

[Joholio]

I pushed buttons for 3 or 4 different pump selections at the Rocky Coop Cardlock and finally got one to let up its ration of 300L of clear diesel. There was 3-4 other diesel pumps ribboned off already. Sucks.

No issues this week but my cardlock on site went dry last Thursday, had to pull strings to get a delivery on Friday. My supplier has his quota less than halved.

Umm when you want thousands of tradesmen to get stuff down its best not to schedule it in middle of summer or winter. Just saying shutdowns will always be spring and fll

Another refinery in Oilberta would look pretty spanky right about meow

Stop selling to china

 

[DRD]

Stop selling to china

So just use our energy to produce our own energy?

 

[jeepchic]

No shortage here in the southern parts of Alberta....yet!!

I get 12,000 liters dyed diesel delivered to rig every 3-4 days, and the price has went up again. Happens every year - the refineries do upgrading & workovers, and it seems every one of them do it at the exact same time, right after harvest season. It's a mixed blessing that drilling is slow this year, or we'd be unable to get fuel (or fuel of questionable quality, old stuff).

 

[Joholio]

Down to 200L per card per day. Fawk

Down to 200L per card per day. Fawk

was still at 300 litres per card yesterday at grassland coop, I started packing 2 cards with me a few weeks ago. petro can and UFA still had no fuel limit in nisku and westlock respectively

300L Brooks co-op. Good thing the company has several dozen cards.
