Correction: January 3-5 Platts CP PCM

Platts European daily contract cracker margin assessments (CP PCM) of January 3-5 have been corrected.

The affected Oracle codes are AAYDG00 for CP PCM Eur/mt and AAYDF00 for CP PCM $/mt.

The new January 3-5 values correct the absence of a single benzene NWE contract price.

In the absence of a single contract price for NWE Benzene, the average of the two contract prices reported by the market was used beginning January 6, generating corrections for the first three days of the month.

The correct PCM CP assessments now read as:

03 Jan -71.40 ($/mt) -54.64 (Euro/mt) 04 Jan -119.89 ($/mt) -92.44 (Euro/mt) 05 Jan -156.33 ($/mt) -121.31 (Euro/mt)
