CommodityScope Assessment Basis

This is the CommodityScope series definition for the published midpoint and assessment range. Characteristics that are not part of this basis are not inferred.

Product
Ammonium Nitrate
Product quality
Product as labelled by the series name and location basis. CommodityScope does not infer a fuller chemical or contractual specification.
Location basis
FOB Black Sea bulk
Parcel basis
Typical seaborne fertilizer cargo as transacted on the stated basis. CommodityScope does not fix a standard parcel tonnage.
Delivery / loading period
Not fixed in the published series basis.
Assessment window
CommodityScope daily assessment dated as of the published assessment date.
Currency / unit
USD/mt
Normalization
Inputs used for the midpoint and the assessment range are considered only after they can be expressed on this series basis and unit. Cross-unit values are not converted on the public site and are not mixed into this series.

Terms not specified

  • The nitrogen content of the assessed grade is not printed in the published row.

Specification · stated in the assessment basis

  • Bulk AN, from the series basis.

Basis: FOB Black Sea bulk

  • FOB (free on board): the price covers the product loaded on the vessel at the named origin; sea freight and insurance to the destination are excluded, so FOB values from different loading areas are not delivered-cost equivalents.
  • The Black Sea basis covers loadings from Russian, Ukrainian, Romanian and Bulgarian ports; origin is stated separately where it matters for the price.

Unit: USD/mt

  • Most series are USD per metric tonne of product, not per tonne of nitrogen. NOLA barge series are USD per short ton (907.18 kg); Rouen and German inland series are EUR/mt.
  • FOB origin and CFR destination values are not interchangeable; the gap may reflect freight, insurance, location basis, parcel size and timing, not freight alone.
How to use this series, and what it is not for

How to use this series

  • Follow nitrate values for European top-dressing demand; compare per unit N with urea and UAN.

What it is not suitable for

  • Comparing an EUR/mt inland CAN value with a USD/mt FOB bulk AN value directly.
