Isle of Grain added to NWE jet cargo assessment

Following a review of the logistics and operations at the UK's Isle of Grain, Platts now includes this port in its Northwest European jet fuel cargo assessment process.

The Platts Northwest European jet fuel cargo assessment process reflects ports which, as a minimum, can accept 30,000 mt +/- 10% part cargoes on an LR1 vessel.

The installations at the Isle of Grain have been modified and the port is able to meet the minimum standards for inclusion in the assessment process.
