Update: Platts brings back USGC summer supplemental assessments

(Updated with more accurate date)

When the Colonial Pipeline's 19th shipping cycle becomes prompt, Platts will introduce its annual summer supplemental assessments.

This means the main US Gulf Coast gasoline assessment will be 7.8 RVP for unleaded 87 (M-grade), premium 93 (V-grade), 87 CBOB (A-grade) and 93 CBOB (D-grade). The summer supplemental assessment will be 9.0 RVP for the same products.

The date for this change depends on the Colonial Pipeline shipping cycle, but is expected to take place on or about March 26, 2012.
