Platts creates additional codes for tanker ship size

The following codes were created to represent ship size for clean tankers.

Due to an everchanging market, these codes will be used to track ship size on a daily basis.

From May 1, 2012, they will appear on Marine Alert page PGT 1910.

The codes will also be displayed on the monthly pages PGT 1911 and 1921.
