Time change for April 1 Houston methodology forum

Platts is hosting a methodology forum in Houston on Wednesday, April 1, 2009, to discuss a proposal to align the Americas crude and refined products basis to a 3:15 pm Eastern Time futures basis.

The start time of the forum has been changed to 3:30 pm Central Daylight Time (CDT), with registration at 3 pm CDT.

In addition, Platts editors will discuss proposed changes for the Platts US Gulf Coast waterborne assessments to better reflect market dynamics.

The forum will be held in the Platts Houston office, 333 Clay St., Suite 3800, and is open to the public on a first-come, first-serve basis.

Please contact Wendy Montalvo, +1 212-904-5064, wendy_montalvo@platts.com to register for the forum.

Platts will also provide a dial-in/web-ex option for those that cannot attend in person. That information will be communicated via platts.com and a subsequent subscriber note ahead of the event.
