LONDON, Oct 6 (Reuters) – West African crude oil differentials drifted lower on Monday after a major tender avoided this region's grades, pointing to lower demand. * An Indian Oil Corp tender on Friday snapped up alternative grades and shunned West African crudes, a trade source said. * Traders are awaiting a new tender by Hindustan Petroleum Corp Ltd this week. * Among offers on Monday were Angola's Cabinda at dated Brent plus $1.25 and Dalia at dated Brent plus 50 cents. Nigeria's Bonny Light was offered at dated Brent plus $1.50. * About 10-15 Nigerian cargoes still remain unsold for October, while Angola and Congo's October stock have cleared, the trade source said.
