SUBSCRIBER NOTE: Platts proposes to stop publishing ARPEL postings

Platts proposes to stop publishing consumer price postings in Latin America as gathered by the Asociacion Regional de Empresas del Sector Petroleo (ARPEL) with effect from the end of 2014.

The proposed discontinuation reflects diminished appetite for the data from Platts subscribers.

The ARPEL postings are currently published in full each day on Platts Global Alert page 474, with a smaller selection published daily in Platts Latin American Wire. All of the postings are also in the Platts price database under data codes beginning ARP.

Please send comments and feedback by November 14, 2014 to americas_products@platts.com and pricegroup@platts.com. For written comments, please provide a clear indication if comments are not intended for publication by Platts for public viewing. Platts will consider all comments received and will make comments not marked as confidential available upon request.
