SUBSCRIBER NOTE: Platts to change name of US ethylene FD USG marker

S&P Global Platts will change the US ethylene FD USG marker to US ethylene FD Mont Belvieu, effective November 1.

This methodology change will reflect more precisely the trading hub for spot US Gulf Coast ethylene.

This proposal will affect Ethylene FD USG M1 (AAOSR00) and Ethylene FD USG M2 (AAOSS00) assessments, appearing in Olefinscan, Platts Petrochemical Alert pages 301 and 870, as well as in the Platts price database under the codes listed above.

This change was first proposed in a subscriber note first published August 19.

Please send all comments or questions by October 21 to americaspetrochemical@spglobal and pricegroup@spglobal.com.
