S&P Global Commodity Insights uses a Market-on-Close (MOC) assessment methodology which is a day-long process that ends at 12:30pm Fujairah time—the timestamp for Platts oil assessments in Asia and the Middle East.

Structured and highly transparent, the MOC is a process in which oil bids, offers and transactions are submitted by participants to S&P Global Commodity Insights editors and published in real time throughout the day until the market close. Following the close, S&P Global Commodity Insights editors examine the data gathered through the day, conduct their analysis and develop price assessments that reflect an end-of-day value.
