SUBSCRIBER NOTE: Platts to launch Spanish AOC gas assessments October 1, 2015

Platts will launch daily assessments in Eur/MWh of over-the-counter month-ahead Spanish AOC gas on October 1, 2015. The assessments will be converted into p/th, $/MMBtu and Eur/Gj.

The AOC assessments will be published in Platts European Gas Daily, on Platts European Power Alert page 823, Natural Gas Alert page 56 and in Platts Market Data category EG.
