W.Africa Crude - Sellers aim higher as Mideast concerns return

LONDON, July 21 (Reuters) - West African crude cargoes were being offered at higher differentials on Tuesday as renewed concern over Middle East supplies emboldened sellers of other grades.

  • "Sellers are offering at higher numbers but there is no activity yet," a trader said.

  • Nigerian Forcados and Escravos were offered at around dated Brent plus $3, a trader said, similar to levels heard on Monday. Escravos was offered at plus $2.50 at the end of June in the Platts window.

  • Nigeria's Dangote refinery has been undergoing maintenance work since July 10 due to issues with a steam generator, commodities analytics firm Kpler said, reducing run rates at its crude-processing and gasoline-producing units.
