Version 2: 7 December 2021

Publishing and Non-publishing dates – 2021

The dates on which reports are typically scheduled for publication are listed in Table 1. Exceptions to this are listed in table 2 in chronological order.

When a reporting centre observes a public holiday, the weekly reports due on that day are produced on the preceding business day unless otherwise specified. China is the exception where energy reports are produced on the working day following a public holiday.

Contributions to global reports will not be available from certain regional reporting centres (Houston, London, Singapore and Shanghai) during public holidays.

This schedule is subject to change. Subscribers will, where possible, be alerted of any changes in advance through a note in the reports.
