Subscriber note: Platts to revise assessed timings for NWE aromatics

Following industry feedback, Platts proposes to revise the assessed timings for Northwest European aromatics, styrene and methanol. Currently, assessments for NWE benzene, toluene, mixed xylenes, paraxylene, orthoxylene, styrene and methanol reflect a rolling 3-30 day window inclusive and from the publication date. Platts proposes to launch revised assessed timings to reflect a 5-30 day rolling window inclusive and from the publication date, on January 1, 2014.
