Platts to launch USGC fuel oil eWindow on October 1

Platts will launch eWindow software for the US Gulf Coast fuel oil market on Friday, October 1.

This will create a different format for headlines published on PGA400 for bids and offers.

For example, a headline that currently appears as "USGC Resid: 3%S: Company XX bids $66.70 Oct 8-10 FOB Houston 45kb" will instead be published as "Platts FO 3% FOB Houston BE, Company XX bids $66.70 for 45."

Company short-form names may also appear differently.
