SUBSCRIBER NOTE: Platts renames French PEG Nord natural gas assessment

From October 1, 2018, S&P Global Platts has started to align its naming convention for its French natural gas market assessments to reflect an industry-wide trading framework change due to take effect November 1, in line with announcements made by the French Commission de Regulation de l'Energie (CRE). On November 1, 2018, the PEG Nord and TRS hubs will merge to form a single gas hub to be named Trading Region France (TRF). As a result of these changes, the PEG Nord assessments will be renamed PEG to reflect these changes and will incorporate all trading activity on the French gas hub. Platts has made the following change as of October 1, 2018: the PEG Nord month-ahead assessment (GPGTM00) was renamed PEG month-ahead. The following changes will be made on October 31, 2018: the PEG Nord day-ahead assessment (GPGTD00) and weekend assessment (GPGTT00) will be renamed PEG day-ahead and PEG weekend. The above changes apply to all related symbols, including flow date symbols, currency and unit conversions and monthly averages, and the historical data series for PEG Nord.
