Haplobasaltic melts with a 101 kPa dry eutectic composition (An42Di58) and varying water contents were equilibrated with their platinum capsule at 1523 K and 200 MPa in an internally heated pressure vessel (IHPV) equipped with a rapid quench device. Experimental products were inclusion-free glasses representative of the Pt-saturated silicate melts at the experimental conditions. Platinum concentrations were determined using an isotope dilution multicollector inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometer and water contents and distribution by Karl Fischer titration and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, respectively. The water content of the melt has no intrinsic effect on platinum solubility, for concentrations between 0.9 wt.% and 4.4 wt.% H2O (saturation). Platinum solubility increases with increasing water content, but this effect is an indirect effect because increasing water content at fixed fH2 (imposed by the IHPV) increases the oxygen fugacity of the experiment. The positive oxygen fugacity dependence of Pt solubility in a hydrous silicate melt at 200 MPa is identical to that in anhydrous melts of the same composition determined in previous studies at 101 kPa. This study extends the range of platinum solubilities to oxygen fugacities lower than was previously possible. Combining the data of this and previous studies, Pt solubility is related to oxygen fugacity (in bar) at 1523 K by the equation: P=1389×f+7531×f
