SUBSCRIBER NOTE: Platts discontinues Russia's Yaroslavl to Ventspils diesel netback

S&P Global Platts has discontinued the publication of the diesel netback for Yaroslavl via Ventspils from May 1, 2018. The change aims to bring the netbacks in line with prevailing practices in the market, as Yaroslavl is now predominantly exporting diesel by pipeline via Primorsk.

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

Under this discontinuation, S&P Global Platts stops publishing the netback for Yaroslavl (Yaroslavl via Ventspils, Platts database code AAXKR00). Platts also stops publishing the Yaroslavl to Latvian border pipeline fee (Platts database code AAXKV00). The respective monthly averages and conversions are also discontinued.

S&P Global Platts will continue to publish its Yaroslavl via Primorsk ULSD netback (Platts database code AAWJZ00), and Yaroslavl via St. Petersburg (Platts database code AAXKP00).
