SUBSCRIBER NOTE: Calendar for European gasoline barge summer to winter change

Effective September 16, 2016, Platts will start reflecting winter grade gasoline on a pro-rated basis in its Amsterdam-Rotterdam barge assessments, with winter grade having an increasing weighting in the assessment from that date.

The affected assessments include: Eurobob gasoline barges (code: AAQZV00); Premium unleaded gasoline barges (code: PGABM00); 98 RON gasoline barges (code: AAKOD00). September 21 will be the last day on which summer specification can be bid or offered. A spreadsheet detailing the changes is available on request. The following calendar applies: - September 16: First day of reflecting winter - September 20: First full five-day period for winter indications - September 21: Last full five-day period for summer indications - September 27: Last day summer gasoline will be reflected - September 28: Fully winter.
