I think your right a bit of googling is needed here though to make sure, or a post in the pistonhead gassing section, there's a few PH'ers that work for fuel companies and will put you right

93 PON, pump octane number.

UK 97 RON, Research Octane Number.

PON is ( RON + MON )/2

But basically, their 93 octane is equivalent to our 97RON
