SUBSCRIBER NOTE: Platts to change name for Syncrude assessment

Platts will change the name of its Canadian Syncrude Sweet crude assessment to Syncrude Sweet Premium, effective January 15, 2015.

The change, which was proposed on October 29, reflects changes on Enbridge's grouping system for crudes shipped through its pipeline network.

The methodology used to assess the value of this crude, including its specifications, will not change as a result of this name change.

This assessment appears on Platts Global Alert Page 230, in the Crude Oil Marketwire, the North American Crude and Products Scan and in the Platts price database under the code AASOK00.
