Platts proposes including two new Baker Hughes additives in Singapore gasoil

Following a continued review of recognized additives contained in the FOB Singapore gasoil assessment process, S&P Global Platts proposes to begin reflecting two new additives by Baker Hughes.

These additives are:

Additive Name Additive Type

TOLAD3750K Cold flow improver

TOLAD1347 Cetane improver

Platts proposes to add these additives to the list of recognized additives reflected in its assessment process.

The list of Platts gasoil recognized additives is intended to provide clarity to market participants regarding which additives are generally considered to be merchantable and accepted for cargoes delivered through the Platts Market on Close assessment process in Singapore.

Platts does not align its FOB Singapore additives acceptance to any particular importing country.
