    LONDON, July 30 (Reuters) - Northwest European gasoline refining margins fell sharply by about $1.27 a barrel on Tuesday to $14.23 a barrel, while liquidity in physical spot markets was low.

    • No E5 or E10 barges traded in either the Argus or Platts window on Tuesday.
    • EU and UK gasoline and gasoline component exports have reached about 1.28 million barrels per day so far this month, up from 1.12 million bpd in June, according to Kpler data.

    • Weak demand for gasoline and diesel around the world is weighing on refining profit margins which are however expected to improve over the summer driving season, BP BP.L CEO Murray Auchincloss said on Tuesday.
    • Motiva Enterprises plans to restart the shut gasoline-producing fluidic catalytic cracker (FCC) at its 626,000-barrel-per-day (bpd) Port Arthur, Texas, refinery on Tuesday, said two people familiar with plant operations on Monday.
