Platts to include Infineum R210 additive in Singapore gasoil MOC Oct 1

Following a review of recognized additives in the FOB Singapore gasoil assessment process, S&P Global Platts will begin reflecting Infineum's R210 additive with effect from Oct. 1.

The R210 additive is a cold flow improver by Infineum.

Platts first published the proposed addition of the new additive on June 4, 2021: https://www.spglobal.com/platts/en/our-methodology/subscriber-notes/060421-platts-proposes-including-infineum-r210-additive-in-singapore-gasoil

Platts will add the additives to the list of recognized additives reflected in its assessment process. The list of 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.

For the full list of previously recognized additives, please see http://plts.co/V0Ax30ru2Yi. The list of identified additives is not exhaustive and Platts continuously reviews the list.
