Platts proposes ex-duty for USAC gasoline cargoes

Platts is seeking comment on a proposal to change the basis of its US Atlantic Coast gasoline cargo assessments to ex-duty and welcomes your feedback on appropriate timing for this proposed change.

Platts continues to assess the USAC gasoline cargoes on an inside-duty basis, but typical market practices for gasoline import cargo transactions have shifted primarily to an ex-duty basis.

Platts will continue to assess the USAC distillate cargo markets on an inside-duty basis.
