* Gasoil stocks held in independent storage in the
Amsterdam-Rotterdam-Antwerp
(ARA) refining and storage area hit a new two-year high in the week to Thursday,
data from Dutch consultancy Insights Global showed.
* Gasoil stocks, which include diesel and heating oil, are at their highest
since
March 2021 on the back of ample imports, including from East Asia and India,
said Insights Global's Lars van Wageningen.
* Diesel supplies and imports into Europe remained high even after the EU
ban on
Russian fuel imports took effect.
* Kazakhstan will supply 100,000 tonnes of oil via Russia's Druzhba pipeline
to
Germany in March for the PCK Schwedt refinery after it agreed commercial and
legal terms with all parties involved, two sources familiar with the talks said.
* China's commerce ministry has met independent oil refiners to discuss
their
deals with Russia, five sources with knowledge of the matter said, imports which
have saved Chinese buyers billions of dollars.
* About 5.5 million tonnes of diesel is already scheduled to arrive into
Europe
this month, compared with 7.73 million tonnes in January, Refinitiv analysis
shows.
* The February imports are still 12% higher than a year earlier, according
to
Refinitiv.
* Russian diesel exports took a massive hit in the week to Feb. 12, tumbling
to
about 550,000 tonnes compared with the 1.23 million tonnes that loaded in the
week to Feb. 5, Refinitiv data shows.
* Shell's 400,000 barrel per day Pernis refinery in Rotterdam will undergo
major
maintenance from the start of March through to the end of May, the company said
on Tuesday.
