Subscriber note: Platts confirms suspension of duplicate Europe swaps data

Further to our subscriber note of April 19, 2012, Platts confirms that it will relocate certain European crude oil, naphtha and LPG swaps assessments data from market data categories RI (International Crudes), EB (European refined products) and LI (International LPG) to the DR (European Derivatives) category. Following feedback to that notice, Platts will defer the relocation of the data, which is now planned to happen on May 1, 2013. The relocation was initially proposed for November 1, 2012. Additionally, Platts will defer the suspension of mirrored codes in DA. Those suspensions will now occur on June 1, 2013, instead of the originally proposed date of December 1. The codes to be moved in the database and the codes which will ultimately be suspended are listed in the table below. Please send any further questions and/or comments to PGA@platts.com. These codes will be moved from current Market Data Categories to DR with effect from May 1, 2013:
