Platts to add three more China LNG ports August 1

Effective August 1, 2012, and following industry feedback, Platts will include the Chinese ports of Shanghai, Dalian and Rudong in its LNG Japan/Korea Marker assessment.

The three ports will be added to the Chinese ports of Guangdong and Fujian which Platts currently considers in its assessment.

Deliveries to Chinese ports are normalized to a delivered ex-ship Japan/Korea basis.
