Platts renames carbon-neutral LNG assessments

Platts, part of S&P Global Commodity Insights, is changing the name of its carbon-neutral LNG assessments from Feb. 1, 2023 to align nomenclature with other similar Platts price assessments.

The term "Carbon Neutral" has been replaced by "Carbon Accounted", meaning the assessments are now under the header "Carbon Accounted LNG".
