Europe Gasoline/Naphtha-Cracks steady as export activity slows

Feb 10 (Reuters) - Northwest European gasoline refining margins were broadly steady at $13.40 a barrel on Friday, as export activity from the region slowed.
* Northwest European (NWE) gasoline exports in February are set to reach 1.15 mln tonnes so far, according to Refinitiv data, compared with a revised four-month high of 3.04 mln tonnes in January.

* "NWE gasoline shipments to the United States and West Africa got off to a slow start in February weighed by rising freight rates and abundant stocks on both sides of the Atlantic as demand was crimped in the US by icy roads, storms and freezing temperatures," Refinitiv analysts said.
* ARA gasoline stocks rose slightly to 1.4 million tonnes in the week to Thursday, their highest since August 2020, data from Dutch consultancy Insights Global showed.
* U.S. gasoline stocks rose by 5 million barrels to 239.6 million barrels, the EIA said, far surpassing the 1.3 million barrel rise that analysts expected in a Reuters poll. Trades Bids Offers Prev. Sellers Buyers (vol.) Trades
