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 Sulphate
- 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 China
- 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.
Specification · stated in the assessment basis
- Standard caprolactam, as stated in the published daily price table.
Basis: FOB China
- 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.
- China is a Pacific exporter of urea and ammonium sulphate; FOB China values refer to loadings at Chinese ports and are subject to Chinese export policy.
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 FOB China export values and CFR destination values; compare per-unit-N with urea using the nutrient-value series.
What it is not suitable for
- Treating grades as interchangeable.
Product and market references
- Published daily and weekly ammonium sulphate tables — Grade label checked; this is not a verification of every historical value.
- ICC Incoterms® 2020 rules (FOB, CFR, CIF, FCA definitions) — Meaning of the delivery terms used in the basis column.
- CommodityScope Market Assessment Methodology
Assessment, assessment range and computed statistics: CommodityScope. The assessment range is an uncertainty interval around the midpoint, not a bid/offer spread. See the Fertilizer Assessment Methodology v1.1 for assessment basis, calculation principles and data policy.
