A2 CBOB, or conventional regular gasoline blendstock formulated for blendingwith 10 percent ethanol, traded at 13.25-cent and 12.25-cent discounts toSeptember RBOB futures, up a penny per gallon, while conventional M2gasoline climbed a quarter cent per gallon to a 2.75-cent discount to futures,traders said. The U.S. Energy Information Administration on Wednesday said Gulf Coastgasoline stocks gained 1.6 million barrels last week while running at 96.1percent.

Marathon hopesto begin restarting units by Friday. A brief shutdown on Tuesday of an alkylation unit at BP Plc's 413,500 bpdrefinery in Whiting, Indiana, also boosted demand for spot Gulf barrels, traderssaid.

"People seem to have Marathon and BP on their minds in Chicago and BP andHollyFrontier in the Group," commented one Midwest broker. HollyFrontier Corp's 138,000-bpd El Dorado, Kansas, refinery hadelevated flaring on Monday, according to industry intelligence company Genscape,and the company reported a release of benzene on Tuesday. Midwest diesel was little changed. New York Harbor jet fuel strengthened 2.50 cents to 5.50 cents belowSeptember ultra-low sulfur diesel (ULSD) futures as sellers were not inthe market with offers, brokers said. ULSD was about 0.75 cent stronger at 1.00 cent below futures. F2 RBOB was about 0.50 cent stronger, with offers for prompt supply at 6.00cents over September RBOB. Any-August supply traded at 2.00 cents over. M2 gasoline was 0.25 cent stronger at 0.25 cent above September RBOB. U.S. gasoline stocks rose 811,000 barrels last week to 216.73 million,driven by the large Gulf Coast build, the EIA said. Midwest stocks fell 360,000 barrels, and East Coast inventories declined159,000 barrels, the EIA said. U.S. distillate stocks rose 709,000 barrels to 144.8 million last week asdeclines in most U.S.-defined petroleum supply zones overrode a 598,000-barreldraw in East Coast stocks. Gulf Coast inventories climbed 501,000 barrels, andMidwest stocks gained 289,000 barrels, the EIA said. U.S. refinery utilization reached its highest rate since 2005 last week at96.1 percent of capacity, up 1 percentage point from the prior week, the EIAsaid.
