As a business, we are continually improving our data offer for our clients in line with Market activity. Therefore, we are pleased to announce the re-launch of our End Of Day LightEnd Oil Product.

This new data file “Tradition_Lights_YYYY_MM_DD” will be delivered to all clients currently receiving our End of Day LightEnd Oil Product. Delivery of the new data file will begin on 21/08/2023.

Both files (New and Old) will be delivered to each eligible customer until 30th October 2023. At this point, “Tradition_Lightends_YYYY_MM_DD” and “Naptha_Lightends_YYYY_MM_DD” will be decommissioned and only the “Tradition_Lights_YYYY_MM_DD” file will be delivered.
The new File will have the same content of the two decommissioned files plus added instruments and a naming convention change for selected instruments that needed a description change

If you require access to either “Tradition_Lightends_YYYY_MM_DD” or “Naptha_Lightends_YYYY_MM_DD” post 30th October 2023, please reach out to your sales representative to discuss your individual requirements.
There will be no changes to our Real Time service.
