SUBSCRIBER NOTE: Platts to update Russia gasoline, diesel specs

Platts confirms that it will reflect Euro 4 product specifications with a maximum sulfur content of 0.005% (50 parts per million) in its Russian domestic gasoline FCA Moscow and FCA Ufa assessments and its Russian domestic diesel FCA Moscow and FCA Ufa assessments with effect from January 2, 2015. This follows a proposal to update the assessments published on September 11.

Platts currently reflects Euro 3 standards for both products. This update to the specifications in Platts assessments reflects Russian government legislation, which will lower sulfur specifications for gasoline and diesel in the domestic Russian market from January 2015.
