LONDON, Nov 29 (Reuters) - Northwest European diesel
profit margins rose towards $18 a barrel on Friday following a
drop in regional inventories as imports were set to decline.

    * Scarce supply and improving demand have been offering
support to
distillates market, according to James Noel-Beswick of Sparta
Commodities.
    * ARA gasoil stocks, including diesel and heating oil, fell
by 5%
on the week to 2.26 million tons, according to consultancy
Insights Global.
    * Gasoil demand up the river Rhine remained high owing to
high
water levels that allow buyers to replenish stocks, said Lars
van Wageningen of Insights Global.
    * A single gasoil cargo arrived in ARA in the past week from
South
Korea, while gasoil cargoes departed for France, Ireland,
Norway, Poland, Sweden, U.K. and U.S.
    * EU and UK diesel and gasoil imports are on track to fall
to 1.20
million barrels per day this month, down from 1.28 million bpd
in October, Kpler data showed.
