SUBSCRIBER NOTE: Platts corrects November 6 ARA gasoil barge rationale

Platts has corrected the Friday, November 6, 2015, assessment rationale for ARA 0.1% gasoil barges.

The amended rationale should read as:

"The FOB ARA 0.1% gasoil barge assessment was derived using the following inputs: the back-end laycan was assessed at minus $18.46/mt to the front-month ICE low sulfur futures contract, 25 cents above a live competitive bid at the close of the Platts Market on Close assessment process. A contango structure of 15 cents/day as implied by the physical versus swaps structure was applied across the assessment curve."

This rationale is published on Platts Global Alert page 1427, and in Platts European Marketscan.
