LONDON, Oct 23 (Reuters) - Gasoil stocks independently held in the Amsterdam-Rotterdam-Antwerp (ARA) refining and storage hub fell by about 4.1% on the week, data from Dutch consultancy Insights Global showed on Thursday.
Gasoil stocks, which include diesel, stood at 2.16 million tons on higher demand in the region due to lower prices and increased loadings, Insights Global's Lars van Wageningen said.
The backwardation in the market has strengthened after the U.S. issued fresh sanctions on two top Russian oil companies, Wageningen added.
Gasoline stocks stood at 1.04 million metric tons and fell on higher exports to West Africa and to North America.
Fuel oil stocks stood at 922,000, their lowest since April 2022 due to high demand for high-sulphur fuel oil.
