LONDON, Jan 20 (Reuters) - Northwest European gasoline refining profit margins rose by about $1.40 to $6.32 a barrel, lifted by weaker underlying crude prices, but high inventories limited gains.
* BP sold an Eurobob E5 barge to Gunvor during the Argus trading window.
* A further 7,000 tons of E10 gasoline were traded, which Shell and TotalEnergies sold to Varo and BP.
* In the Platts window, Vitol bid for a cargo in the Mediterranean while Trafigura offered a cargo.
* Traders said demand for transatlantic cargoes was giving gasoline refining margins some support despite high inventories.
* EU and UK gasoline exports are on track to reach 774,000 barrels per day this month, Kpler data showed, compared with 951,000 bpd in December.
