Description changes for Mt Belvieu gas liquids addendum

Effective July 5, Platts LPG eWindow instruments for LDH and non-LDH trading hubs now reflect LST and non-LST trading hubs, respectively.

Effective July 7, Platts assessments for E/P mix, purity ethane, propane, normal butane, iso-butane and natural gasoline will reflect LST and non-LST hubs where relevant in Platts Market Data, Platts Global Alert, Platts Petrochemical Alert Platts LP Gaswire, and Platts US Marketscan.

These changes are in line with the change in ownership of the Louis Dreyfus trading hub (LDH) to Lone Star NGL (LST).

Please be advised that although Platts has changed the descriptions for the symbols themselves as well as for all products affected in relevant publications, the changes might not show up in the symbol guide until the guide has been run again.
