Compare With

Different delivery terms (FOB vs CFR); the gap may reflect freight, insurance, location basis, parcel and timing differences and is not a trading margin.

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
- Sulacid FOB China spot
- Product quality
- Platts Fertecon print. Separate from any Argus series and not an average of the two. The assessment date is the printed section date. The first stored print of that date stands. The unit stays as printed.
- 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
- Platts Fertecon print. Separate from any Argus series and not an average of the two. The assessment date is the printed section date. The first stored print of that date stands. The unit stays as printed.
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.
- The place in this sulfuric acid series is the place named in the basis. It is not a granular sulfur 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. A series stays in its published unit: USD/mt, USD/st, EUR/mt, GBP/mt and CNY/mt are not converted into each other.
- 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
