SUBSCRIBER NOTE: Platts to start publishing Volgograd-Novorossiisk Russian diesel netback

S&P Global Platts will start publishing a Volgograd to Novorossiysk diesel netback as part of its Russian diesel and gasoil export netbacks with effect from May 1, 2018. The proposed change aims to bring the netbacks in line with the start of 10 ppm diesel pipeline shipments to the Black Sea port.

The decision follows a proposal note sent on March 20, 2018.

The Volgograd to Novorossiisk diesel netback will be based on Platts FOB Med 10 ppm diesel assessment (AAWYY00), the Med-Novorossiisk clean freight rate and the pipeline freight between Volgograd and Novorossiisk.

S&P Global Platts will also start publishing the pipeline freight between Volgograd and Novorossiisk.
