Platts, part of S&P Global Energy, has begun to reflect Hydradd C9000 cetane improver by Scandinavian Oil Services Oct. 8, 2026, following a review of recognized additives contained in the FOB Singapore gasoil assessment process.

Platts understands that Hydradd C9000 cetane improver is a relabel of Cetpro Micet's 2-Ethyl Hexyl Nitrate, an additive which has been reflected in the FOB Singapore gasoil assessment process since Jan. 22, 2015.
