Other: The FOB NWE assessment is typically derived from the<br />

CIF value based on a freight differential representing freight<br />

costs for handy size vessels on typical routes within NWE.. Platts<br />

uses the $/mt for cross UK Cont vessels carried in Platts Clean<br />

Tankerwire, rounded to the nearest $0.25/mt.<br />

Background: DEFSTAN 91/91 was formerly referred to as DERD<br />

2494. The UK Ministry of Defence has updated Defstan 91-91,<br />

the defining standard for Jet A1 in Europe, with the release Feb 8<br />

of issue 5. Since Feb 8, 2005, Platts jet NWE and Mediterranean<br />

assessments have reflected issue 5 spec, having previously Platts<br />

reflected Defstan 91-91 issue 4 specification. Defstan 91/91<br />

issue 4 was published June 14, 2002 and defined a sulfur limit of<br />

0.3% maximum<br />

91/91 latest issue. The UK Ministry of Defence has updated<br />

Defstan 91-91, the defining standard for Jet A1 in Europe, with<br />

the release Feb 8 of issue 5. Since Feb 8, Platts jet NWE and<br />

Mediterranean assessments have reflected issue 5 spec, having<br />

previously Platts reflected Defstan 91-91 issue 4 specification.<br />

Typical DEFSTAN specifications under issue 5 are as follows:<br />

Sulfur is 0.3% maximum, specific gravity is 0.775-0.840 g/ml,<br />

flash point is 38 degrees C minimum, freeze point is minus 47<br />

degrees C maximum.<br />

Size: Barge assessments reflect parcels of 2,000-5,000mt each.<br />

Parcels of 1,000 mt are not considered in the assessment.<br />

Location: Jet barges are basis FOB Rotterdam. Any transactions<br />

occurring at other loading ports in NWE are typically normalized<br />

on a freight differential basis back to Rotterdam. Platts considers<br />

bids and offers from Rotterdam, Antwerp, Amsterdam, Ghent<br />

and Flushing.<br />

Timing: Reflects material for loading 3-15 (Monday-Tuesday)<br />

or 5-15 (Wednesday through Friday) days from date of<br />

publication, with prices normalized to the mid-point of this<br />

loading window.<br />

Joint Fueling System Checklist requires jet fuel to meet the more<br />

stringent requirements of Defstan 91 91 5 and the American<br />

Society for Testing & Materials', Standard Specification D 1655-<br />

04a. Typical DEFSTAN specifications under issue 5 are as follows:<br />

Other: Details of the calculation methodology for Jet Fuel FOB<br />

Med are as follows: The calculation takes the spot Worldscale<br />

rate as published in Platts Marine Alert and Platts Clean<br />

Tankerwire, for jet fuel Med-Northwest Europe pro-rated from<br />

30kt to 27.5kt. This total is multiplied by the flat rate Augusta-<br />

Rotterdam as defined by Worldscale, and the appropriate<br />

allowance for harbor dues at Rotterdam is then added. The result<br />

of this formula is rounded to the nearest $0.25/mt and<br />

subtracted from the mean of the CIF Northwest European jet<br />

assessment, to define the FOB Med mean. The spread low to<br />

high on the FOB Med is set $0.50/mt either side of this mean.<br />

Platts Marine Department assess the worldscale rate for jet<br />

cargoes for the route Med-Northwest Europe. The rate has been<br />

published on a daily basis in Platts Marine Alert and in the daily<br />

Clean Tankerwire, effective Nov 1, 2001. This rate is applied to<br />

determine the netback calculation of the FOB Mediterranean Jet<br />

Aviation Fuel assessment.<br />

Adjustments to the formula are made on the first working day of<br />

January each year to reflect updated Worldscale flat rates as
