Gasoline stocks held in independent storage in the Amsterdam-Rotterdam-Antwerp (ARA) refining and storage hub fell by 4% to 1.17 million tonnes in the week to Thursday, data from Dutch consultancy Insights Global showed. US gasoline stocks fell by 5 million barrels last week, double analysts' forecasts in a Reuters poll.
