LONDON, Oct 30 (Reuters) - Gasoline stocks independently held in the Amsterdam-Rotterdam-Antwerp (ARA) refining and storage hub fell by 7.8% on the week, data from Dutch consultancy Insights Global showed on Thursday.
Gasoline stocks fell to 957,000 metric tons on higher exports to West Africa and the U.S., while demand was steady within the region as well.
A delay in loadings of around 7-10 days had also led to lower stocks, Insights Global's Lars van Wageningen said.
Higher blending activity also led to naphtha stocks falling by around 4% to 474,000 tons.
Gasoil stocks, which include diesel, rose 5% to their highest since March this year, coming in at 2.27 million tons.
While imports and demand were steady, stocks on the Rhine were at their highest levels since December 2023, van Wageningen added.
