Platts proposes including two TotalEnergies additives in Singapore gasoil

Following a continued review of recognized additives in the FOB Singapore gasoil assessment process, Platts, part of S&P Global Commodity Insights, proposes to begin reflecting two new additives from TotalEnergies Additives and Fuels Solutions.

The additives are:

Additive Name Additive Type
PC 12 Lubricity improver
TAC 6011 Conductivity improver

Platts proposes to add the additives to the list of recognized additives reflected in its assessment process, found here: https://www.spglobal.com/commodityinsights/PlattsContent/_assets/_files/en/our-methodology/methodology-specifications/asia-refined-oil-products-methodology.pdf

The list of Platts gasoil recognized additives is intended to provide clarity to market participants regarding which additives are generally considered to be merchantable and accepted for cargoes delivered through the Platts Market on Close assessment process in Singapore.

Platts does not align its FOB Singapore additives acceptance to any particular importing country.
