LONDON, Feb 15 (Reuters) - Uruguay's Ancap circulated a
new buy tender, while March loading cargoes of Angolan crude had
yet to sell out ahead of new export plans expected imminently.
* At least three March-loading Angolan cargoes remained
unsold by Wednesday, traders said.
* Swift purchases earlier in the trading cycle were led by
China, which after largely fulfilling its monthly requirements
has held off on more, leaving some volume still searching for a
buyer.
* Uruguay's Ancap issued a new buy tender for mid-April
delivery due to close this week.
* Offers for Nigerian crude appeared to be cooling slightly
amid less European and South Asian demand, with light sweet Qua
Iboe crude last offered at dated Brent plus $4.50.
* While Indian tenders have become less frequent,
Indonesia's Pertamina has kept up the usual pace of tendering.

* China will make up nearly half of this year's oil demand
growth after it relaxed its COVID-19 curbs, the International
Energy Agency (IEA) said on Wednesday, but restrained OPEC+
production could mean a supply deficit in the second half.
* China's top refiners PetroChina and Sinopec are resuming
purchases of discounted Russian crude after a brief pause in
late 2022, just before the European Union embargo on Russian oil
started, industry sources said.
