S&P Global Energy Platts benchmarks and market insights now accessible inside the Sparta platform

London, 28 May 2026 — Sparta announces it has entered an agreement to integrate Platts benchmark price assessments and insights into its oil intelligence platform beginning May 28, 2026.

Trading desks that subscribe to S&P Global Energy Platts can now access such data layered over Sparta’s propriety analytics, alongside forward curves, arb analysis, and live margins, without switching tools or maintaining a separate system.

The integration eliminates a long-standing inefficiency in trading and analysis workflows: the fragmentation between systems. Instead of relying on one platform for official spot assessments, another for physical and financial forward curves, and yet another for calculators or prediction models, teams can now access and work with all of these critical components in a single, unified environment. 

“S&P Global Energy Platts benchmark price assessments are the industry standard for the oil market. Bringing S&P Global Energy market-leading data into Sparta better ensures our users can move from raw pricing to actionable forecasting in a single, unified workflow.”

Stéphanie Beige-Trabia, Chief Strategy Officer at Sparta.  

Through distribution collaborations such as this, S&P Global Energy says it is committed to meeting its customers where they are, making available its trusted data and insights to aid them and the marketplace alike.

Sparta’s platform will provide access to Platts price assessments and market insights across crude oil, fuels & refining products. Additional data packages to follow.

Platts subscribers can access their data inside Sparta from launch day.
