US Atlantic Coast gasoline RVP switch

Beginning March 16, Platts will publish supplemental US Atlantic Coast summer grade gasoline barge, cargo, Buckeye and Laurel pipeline assessments for conventional 9.0 RVP, VOC season RBOB and CBOB at 7.8 RVP to reflect changes in seasonal gasoline specifications.

These assessments will run alongside the current winter grade assessments.

Beginning April 15, the summer grade assessments will become the main assessment and replace the higher RVP assessments.
