SUBSCRIBER NOTE: Platts discontinues French TRS natural gas assessments

From October 1 2018, S&P Global Platts discontinued some of its French TRS natural gas assessments to reflect an industry-wide trading framework change due to take effect November 1, 2018, 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 the French TRS assessments are being discontinued, and all reported trading activity on the French gas hub will form part of the Platts French PEG assessment.

Platts has made the following change as of October 1, 2018: - The French TRS month-ahead assessment (GPSTM00) was discontinued. The last day of publication was September 28, 2018.

The following changes have been made on October 31, 2018: - The French TRS day-ahead assessment (GPSTD00) and the weekend assessment (GPSTT00) were discontinued. The last day of publication for the day-ahead assessment was October 30 2018, with the last day of publication for the weekend assessment on October 26 2018.

The above changes apply to all related symbols, including flow date symbols, currency and unit conversions and monthly averages, and to the historical data series for TRS.
