NOS has launched and cleared the first week contract for the tanker market

Oslo, 20 Jun 11

NOS Clearing ASA (NOS) has today launched and cleared the first weekly tanker future contract. This service is a natural extension to NOS’s market leading clearing service for the freight market and the product has been proposed by several of the market participants.

There is netting of margins and settlements between the week and month contracts. The daily closing prices are calculated by NOS based on the existing spot prices, balance of the month and closing price for the next month.
