SUBSCRIBER NOTE: Platts to launch US straight run fuel oil outright assessments

Platts confirms that it will publish outright price values for its four US Gulf Coast and Atlantic Coast straight run fuel oil assessments with effect from December 1, 2015.

These outright price assessments will be published in US dollars per barrel, and complement existing assessments of straight run fuel oil, which are published as differentials versus front-month cash WTI for low and high sulfur on the Gulf and Atlantic coasts. These assessments appear in US Marketscan and North American Crude and Products Scan.

The new symbols are:

AALGR00: Straight Run Low Sulfur Fuel Oil USAC AALGQ00: Straight Run High Sulfur Fuel Oil USAC AALGK00: Straight Run Low Sulfur Fuel Oil USGC AALGO00: Straight Run High Sulfur Fuel Oil USGC
