LONDON, Aug 27 (Reuters) - China's Unipec offered the
cargoes of Angolan crude it was allocated on a term basis on the
Platts window for the third day in a row, attracting limited
interest.
* The rare move by Unipec comes as a sign of scarce demand
from China and the broader market.
* Such offers rarely result in a sale and usually coincide
with especially slow trades of Angolan oil that tend to lead to
reduced offers for spot cargoes.
* Unipec again offered a cargo of Mostarda at dated Brent
minus 15 cents, Plutonio at dated Brent plus 15 cents and Sangos
at dated Brent plus 5 cents.
* The cargo of Mostarda was believed to have sold to a
commodities trading house at around dated Brent minus 40 cents.
* Nigerian offers remained largely steady amid muted
trading, with an unusually high number of Qua Iboe cargoes yet
to find a buyer.
