Platts Lists WTI Midland Crude Oil Assessments<br />

On February 26, <strong>2015</strong>, Platts launched a new assessment for West Texas<br />

Intermediate (WTI) Midland Crude Oil out of the Magellan East Houston Terminal.<br />

This new assessment, called WTI MEH, is part of a suite of evolving assessments designed to<br />

reflect crude oil spot market developments in the Houston, Texas, area.<br />

This new assessment reflects 1,000 b/d of ratable crude, for a minimum of 25,000 barrels<br />

in total, delivered over the course of the prompt pipeline month on a Free In Pipe (FIP) basis.<br />

Platts reflects Midland WTI quality as delivered to the Magellan East Houston Terminal.<br />

This new assessment will be published alongside the existing assessment for Light Houston<br />

Sweet crude, which reflects the value of crude delivered out of three Houston terminals:<br />

Magellan East Houston Terminal, Enterprise Houston Crude Oil (EHCO) Terminal, and the Oil<br />

Tanking Houston Terminal.<br />

The new assessment will be published as a flat price and as a spread.<br />

The spread will reflect the difference in value for physical WTI MEH versus physical WTI in<br />

Cushing, Oklahoma, both for delivery in the prompt pipeline month.<br />

WTI MEH will be published in Crude Oil Marketwire, Oilgram Price Report, North American<br />

Crude and Products Scan, as well as on Platts Global Alert pages 210, 211, 214, and 215.<br />

The assessments will be published in Platts’ price database using the following codes:<br />
