Expanded European natural gas contract codes

Platts is launching expanded coverage of Europe's onshore natural gas hubs including the addition of extra contracts at the UK NBP, Dutch TTF, French PEG Nord, German GASPOOL, German NCG and Italian PSV, reflecting growing liquidity in the markets.

New assessments will be launched from Thursday September 1.

They will be published in Platts European Gas Daily and also on our real-time service European Power Alert on existing assessment pages.

Further details on pages can be found on our website. (http://www.platts.com/SymbolAndPageDirectories).

As part of the expansion, Platts has created new discrete contract codes for future contracts out to 2020, enabling prices to be accessed on either a rolling basis (eg. one season out, two seasons out) or a discrete basis (eg. summer 2016, winter 2016).
