MOSCOW, Jan 21 (Reuters) - Urals crude differentials to

dated Brent were stable on Tuesday, while discounts for CPC

Blend crude oil widened to dated Brent after a deal during an

afternoon trading session in the Platts window, traders said.

Black Sea CPC Blend oil exports via the Caspian Pipeline

Consortium (CPC) system in February are set to drop to 1.42

million barrels per day (bpd), or 5.1 million metric tons, from

1.43 million bpd in the January plan, two sources familiar with

the matter told Reuters.

Meanwhile, the current plan for February might be increased

amid the restoration of oil output on the giant Tengiz oil

field, traders said.

At the same time CPC Blend oil was under pressure from

competitive oil grades in the European market, while discounts

to dated Brent also widened due to market structure, traders

added.
