Petroleum products quotations
Petroleum products quotations
(OP)
Dear all,
I have a question relative to petroleum product quotations (market price) that are reported daily by agencies, such as Platt's.
Those quotations have references like:
- U.S. Gulf Coast Waterborne - Unleaded 87 - d:0.742 or Rotterdam Barges FOB - Premium Unleaded 10 PPM (for gasoline)
- U.S. Gulf Coast Waterborne - Ultra Low Sulphur Diesel or NWE Cargoes CIF - Diesel 10 PPM - Basis Le Havre (for diesel)
It seems that each quotation reference is related to a given product quality, in a given geographical area (US Gulf Coast or North West Europe for example).
My question is: Do you know where I can find data sheets (with main characteristics) for the product referenced in quotations?
Thanks
