No Canadian asssessments on August 3, 2009

Platts will not publish Canadian crude or bunker assessments on Monday, August 3, 2009, due to the Heritage Day holiday in Canada.

Going forward, Platts will not publish Canadian crude or bunker assessments on the following Canadian holidays: Thanksgiving (October), Remembrance Day and Boxing Day.

Previously, Platts published Canadian crude and bunker assessments on Canadian holidays when its US offices were open.

Platts noted these changes in the 2009 Platts Holiday Schedule when it was published on Platts.com in the fourth quarter of 2008.

Canadian crude assessments are published in Crude Oil Marketwire, North American Crude Wire, Platts Global Alert, Oilgram Price Report, and in Dispatch.

Canadian bunker assessments for Vancouver and Montreal are published in Bunkerwire, Platts Global Alert, and in Dispatch.
