S&P Global Platts editors Simon Thorne and Mark Callahan explain some of the commercial and editorial aspects of the November 2016 agreement with Intercontinental Exchange (ICE) to streamline natural gas price reporting and strengthen North America benchmarks.
They discuss impacts on North American natural gas price assessments, the transition period required to fully incorporate ICE data, and what this evolution in price formation means for the market.
