According to three traders,The company bought one cargo of mid-October loading Bonny Light at $1,55 a barrel above dated Brent and a late October/early November-loading cargo of Qua Iboe at $1.75 above the dated price.

BP was also said to have bid for the four largest grades, Bonny Light, Qua Iboe, Forcados and Bonga, as high as $1.75 a barrel, from closer to $1.65 on Monday.
