SUBSCRIBER NOTE CORRECTION: Platts to discontinue USGC Premium CBOB assessment

(Corrects database code for pipeline premium CBOB To AARQV00)

Platts would like to remind subscribers of the following note first published on June 10, 2014, regarding an intended discontinuation of US Gulf Coast Premium CBOB (D-Grade) gasoline assessments: Following a period of industry feedback that ended February 28, Platts confirms it will discontinue assessments for US Gulf Coast Premium CBOB (D-Grade) gasoline effective January 1, 2015.

Platts initially proposed suspending this assessment in a note published on September 19, 2013.

Colonial Pipeline no longer ships this grade with regularity and, as a result, Platts has observed substantially diminished market liquidity.

These assessments are published on Platts Global Alert page 330, and in the Platts assessment database under code AARQV00 for pipeline Premium CBOB, and AAWET00 for waterborne Premium CBOB. The seasonal supplemental assessment for Premium CBOB appears on PGA page 332 under the symbol AASOC00.
