About 1.2 million mt of oil products have loaded in the US Gulf Coast for February discharge in Europe, according to an estimate based on data from cFlow, Platts trade flow software. The volume seen for February was down 100,000 mt on the updated figure for January, with some upward potential for any late February journeys to make up for the difference. A total of 29 vessels have been tracked leaving the US Gulf Coast for arrival in Europe in February, of which 16 were en route as of 1430 GMT Tuesday, amounting to 630,000 mt of product, according to cFlow. Of the 29 cargoes, 13 were expected to land in the Northwest European market, with the Mediterranean attracting 16 vessels, an unusual pattern explained by refinery turnarounds in the latter region which have tightened the diesel market.
