WAfrica Crude-Angola nears to sell-out

LONDON, Jan 24 (Reuters) - March loading cargoes of
Angolan crude oil have nearly sold out, following relatively
strong demand from Asia and a fall in the export volume for the
month, traders said on Monday.
The focus has shift to March Nigerian crude deals, which
traders said have been slow due to thin interest from U.S.
buyers so far and to the trading of smaller streams from other
African producers.

Petrogal via a term contract and a spot basis.
