SUBSCRIBER NOTE: Platts reflects cargoes pricing COD+5 in DAP WTI, Eagle Ford Europe assessments

Following a period of market feedback, S&P Global Platts has amended the pricing reflected in its Delivered at Place (DAP) Europe WTI Midland and DAP Europe Eagle Ford 45 assessments to five days after completion of discharge (COD+5) effective Monday, July 1, 2019.

A decision note was announced June 7 and is available here: https://www.spglobal.com/platts/en/our-methodology/subscriber-notes/060719-pl atts-to-reflect-cargoes-pricing-cod5-in-dap-wti-eagle-ford-europe-assessments.

Platts will continue to reflect bids and offers of cargoes pricing 2-1-2 around COD, full month, and deemed dates, but will normalize these indications back to five days after COD for assessment purposes.
