SUBSCRIBER NOTE: Platts reflects new additives in Singapore gasoil cargoes

Please note that with effect from March 1, 2016, Platts Singapore gasoil assessments reflect the potential inclusion of four new additives to cargoes that may be delivered as a result of trades reported during its Market on Close assessment process.

These additives are cetane improver 2-Ethyl Hexyl Nitrate from Kutch Chemical, and cetane improver EC5308A, conductivity improver EC5580A, and lubricity improver EC5719A manufactured by Nalco Champion.

Platts confirmed that these additives would be reflected from March 1 in a note published on February 18, 2016.

Platts regularly reviews and updates the list of additives reflected in its FOB Singapore gasoil assessments and publishes the full list in its methodology guide.
