SUBSCRIBER NOTE: Platts adds new Infineum additives in Singapore gasoil cargoes

Following a continued review of additives reflected in its FOB Singapore gasoil assessments, S&P Global Platts proposes to begin reflecting the new additives from January 15, 2018, which have been used around the region.

The additives are lubricity improver Infineum R650D and Infineum R655D.

Platts understands that Infineum R650D and Infineum R655D are both dilution of Infineum R650 and R655, which are generally used and accepted across the region.

Platts proposed the inclusion of these additives, in a subscriber note published on September 13, 2017. (http://www.platts.com/subscriber-notes-details/27871865)

Platts will add these additives to the list of recognized additives reflected in its assessment process.
