Platts proposes including WDM12-501 cetane improver additive in Singapore gasoil

Following a review of recognized additives contained in the Platts FOB Singapore gasoil assessment process, Platts, part of S&P Global Commodity Insights, proposes to begin reflecting the WDM12-501 cetane improver by Shandong Maikaide Energy Saving Technology Co. Ltd.

Platts proposes to add the additive to the list of recognized additives reflected in its assessment process.

The list of Platts gasoil recognized additives is intended to provide clarity to market participants regarding which additives are generally considered to be merchantable and accepted for cargoes delivered through the Platts Market on Close assessment process in Singapore.

Platts does not align its FOB Singapore additives acceptance to any particular importing country.
