METHODOLOGY: Platts publishes US gasoline RVP calendar for 2022

• Platts releases 2022 gasoline RVP calendar
• Winter grade for NYH unleaded 87 cargo will remain at 13.5 RVP until spring; Platts will not assess 15 RVP unleaded 87 cargoes

Please note that S&P Global Platts has set publishing dates and/or cycles for 2022 US gasoline RVP shifts.

The Platts 2022 RVP calendar is available as a download at https://www.spglobal.com/platts/en/our-methodology/price-assessments/oil/platts-rvp. Please scroll down to find the calendar. No login is required.

The calendar will be updated throughout the year as more information becomes available.

While the 2022 calendar largely follows 2021 norms, a notable deviation from prior years includes:

• The NYH unleaded 87 cargo will no longer shift to 15 psi RVP (M5), based on data and market feedback of limited liquidity in recent years, and will remain at 13.5 RVP (M4) through the winter until the next transition to 9 RVP (M2) in the spring.

The shift dates are based on relevant pipeline schedules, historical information and feedback from market participants.

Gulf Coast shifts are based on the Colonial Pipeline schedule. Atlantic Coast shifts are based on Buckeye Pipeline and Colonial Pipeline calendars. Group 3 shifts are based on the Magellan Pipeline schedule, while Chicago shifts are based on Explorer Pipeline and Buckeye Complex. Los Angeles, San Francisco and Arizona RVP changes are based on Kinder Morgan's SFPP schedule, while Portland and Seattle shifts are based on Olympic Pipeline's calendar.
