LONDON, April 24 (Reuters) - Northwest European diesel barge margins fell slightly to about $16.90 a barrel on Wednesday, on sluggish demand and ample imports.
- Buying activity in the afternoon trading window remained slow for a second consecutive session with Shell selling a single barge to Vitol.
- Diesel imports into Europe forecast for April continued to climb thanks to near record shipments from the U.S. Gulf Coast and strong imports from Asia and the Middle East, LSEG analyst Raj Rajendran said in a note.
- April imports were set to reach 6.23 million metric tons in April, their highest since September 2023 and up sharply from 4.77 million tons in March, according to LSEG data.
- Russia's diesel output in the first quarter this year was down 2.2% compared with the same time last year to 21.9 million tons the state statistics service Rosstat said on Wednesday, as country's oil refining capacity was damaged by Ukrainian drone attacks.
