LONDON, Jan 16 (Reuters) - Northwest European gasoline refining profit margins rose by around $1.50 to $5.49 per barrel on Thursday, despite gasoline inventories in the Amsterdam-Rotterdam-Antwerp $(ARA)$ hub reaching a fresh all-time high.
* Independently held gasoline stocks in the ARA trading and refining hub extended a record high of 1.54 million metric tons, up from 1.53 million tons, according to Dutch consultancy Insights Global.
* ARA gasoline exports reached their lowest since the Covid-19 pandemic in December at 485,000 barrels per day (bpd), as exports to Nigeria fell sharply, according to Kpler.
* About 4,000 metric tons of Eurobob E5 barges traded in the Argus window. Shell sold to Gunvor.
* A further 13,000 tons of E10 gasoline were traded.
* In the Platts window, Vitol sought a Mediterranean gasoline cargo. No trades were agreed as no buyers emerged.
