Med gasoil cargo assessment summer spec change

Effective March 7, Platts will start reflecting summer grades of 0.1% sulfur Spanish B&C gasoil on a prorated basis in its 0.1% CIF Mediterranean assessment, with March 17 being the last day on which winter 0.1% Spanish B&C gasoil can be bid or offered.

Winter spec will be given a progressively lighter weighting up to March 22.

A spreadsheet detailing the changes is available on request.
