LONDON, April 8 (Reuters) – Gasoline stocks held in independent storage in the Amsterdam-Rotterdam-Antwerp (ARA) refining and storage hub fell by 2.5% in the week to Thursday, data from Dutch consultancy Insights Global showed. * Gasoline inventories fell due to strong transatlantic exports, said Insights Global’s Lars van Wageningen. * Gasoil stocks also fell 1% as demand up the Rhine River picked up week-on-week. * Fuel oil inventories sharply dropped on high exports and low imports, van Wageningen added. * Naphtha stocks also dropped as imports were limited and demand for the gasoline blending sector was strong, van Wageningen said. 08/04/2021 01/04/2021 09/04/2020 Gasoline 1,247 1,279 1,036 <STK-GL-ARA> Naphtha 223 273 455 <STK-NAF-ARA> Gasoil 2,329 2,349 1,901 <STK-GO-ARA> Fuel oil 1,517 1,805 1,473 <STK-FO-ARA> Jet fuel 904 890 617 <STK-JET-ARA> Incoming cargoes Outgoing cargoes Gasoline Germany, Ireland, Argentina, Canada, Finland, Russia, Spain, MED, Kenya, Puerto UK Rico, USA, West Africa Naphtha Finland, Norway, Russia none Gasoil Russia, Saudi Arabia France, UK, West Africa Fuel oil Estonia, France, Caribbean, MED, Saudi Germany, Poland, UK Arabia Jet fuel Bahrain UK *COPYRIGHT NOTICE* – Any unauthorised use, duplication or disclosure of ARA stocks data is prohibited without the prior approval of PJK International B.V.
