SUBSCRIBER NOTE: Platts no longer publishing Brent NX 4:30 pm UK time assessments

Effective May 14, 2015, Platts stopped publishing ICE Brent NX assessments because ICE delisted the contract.

ICE Brent NX assessments were published on Platts Global Alert Pages 702 and 703, in the Oilgram Price Report, and in the Crude Oil Marketwire.

The prices were also published in Platts Market Data under the following codes: AAXZL00, AAXZM00, AAXZN00 and AAYAP00.

ICE published a notification May 13 announcing it will delist the contract.

"There is no open interest in any of the ICE Brent NX contracts and they will be removed from trading, effective immediately," ICE said.

ICE decided not to wait for the remaining Brent NX contracts to expire.

Rather, following market feedback, "the Exchange will now cease to admit to trading all remaining ICE Brent NX contracts...instead of allowing them to run until March 2016".

Separately, Platts announced it would cease publication of ICE Brent NX settlement prices.
