Clarification note: Bal month oil swaps assessments

Platts wishes to remind subscribers that balance-month swaps assessments are published from the first day of each calendar month until the 15th of the month and would include the current day's price assessment in contractual settlement calculations. For example, a balance January swap assessed on January 4 would be deemed by Platts for assessment purposes to settle using spot values published from January 4 until (and including) the final publishing day of the month.
