Seasonal maintenance is behind a gas shortage at Petro-Canada locations across Calgary and Edmonton.

Nicole Fisher, a spokeswoman for Suncor, said they are working to mitigate the effects.

“We are doing everything we can to improve the situation,” said Fisher, who was unable to comment on where the maintenance is occurring or how long it would affect stations.

Postmedia identified at least four stations that have shut down pumps that have run dry in Calgary; however, Fisher is unsure of the total number of stations affected.

Some stations have been shut down for as many as five days.

Fisher said Suncor is working to source additional supply for their stations and that similar maintenance happens across the industry.

She added that this maintenance is done for other companies as well.
