North Sea Crude-WTI Midland firms, Ekofisk weakens

LONDON, Nov 11 (Reuters) - U.S. WTI Midland crude values firmed on Monday after a trade in the Platts window, while a North Sea Ekofisk cargo changed hands below where the grade was most recently offered.

PLATTS WINDOW

* Indications are free on board (FOB) unless marked as cost, insurance and freight $(CIF)$ or delivered at place (DAP).

* WTI Midland: Petroineos bought a Nov. 27 - Dec. 1 cargo from Phillips 66 at dated Brent plus $1.45 CIF Rotterdam.

* Monday's deal equated to around dated plus 51 cents on a FOB basis, Reuters calculations showed.

* On Friday, Petroineos bought Nov. 28 - Dec. 2 from Gunvor at dated Brent plus $1.30 CIF Rotterdam.

* Ekofisk: Glencore bought a Nov. 25-27 cargo from Eni at dated Brent plus 90 cents FOB.

* In Friday's window, Eni offered the same dates at dated Brent plus $1.10.

* Brent: Mitsui offered a cargo with Dec. 1-6 dates at dated Brent plus $1.95 CIF Rotterdam.

* The offer equated to around dated plus 45 cents on a FOB basis, Reuters calculations showed.
