note.

compared with a total of 1.05 million tonnes in April.
* Exports to West Africa are so far set at 160,000 tonnes, compared with a
total
of 633,000 the previous month, according to Refinitiv.
* Gasoline stocks in the Amsterdam-Rotterdam-Antwerp hub rose nearly 9% to
1.43
million tonnes in the week to Thursday amid slowing exports, data from Dutch
Consultancy Insights Global showed.
* U.S. gasoline stocks fell last week by 3.2 million barrels in the week to
219.7
million barrels, the EIA said, compared with analysts' expectations in a Reuters
poll for a 1.2 million-barrel drop.
* Sour crude oil supplies for U.S. Gulf Coast oil refiners will be squeezed
in
coming weeks, market participants said, as global demand rises following this
month's OPEC+ production cut.
