LONDON, April 23 (Reuters) - Northwest European gasoline refining margins fell nearly 8% to $19.16 a barrel on Tuesday as underlying crude prices strengthened, though buoyant export activity capped losses.
- A total of 14,000 metric tons of Eurobob E10 traded, and another 7,000 metric tons of E5 traded. Both trade volumes were higher than the previous session.
- Trafigura and Varo sold the E5 barges to Varo, while Gunvor and Shell sold E10 to Varo and Trafigura.
- Musket bought five premium unleaded barges from Varo.
- European gasoline exports in April are on track to reach 1.18 million barrels per day, Kpler data showed, higher than March's 1.06 million bpd.
- Russia's Orsk oil refinery resumed full operations early on Tuesday after flooding in the region caused a two-week suspension, two sources close to the matter told Reuters.
