LONDON, Aug 7 (Reuters) -North Sea Forties crude differentials rebounded on Wednesday as buying interest re-emerged in the trading window after sustained selling on Tuesday.

PLATTS WINDOW

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

* Forties: Vitol bought an Aug. 20-24 cargo from TotalEnergies at dated Brent plus $1.75 CIF Rotterdam.

* The deal equated to around dated plus 77 cents on a FOB basis, according to Reuters calculations.

* On Tuesday, TotalEnergies had offered three cargoes on a CIF Rotterdam basis, the lowest of which was at dated Brent plus 70 cents for Aug. 20-24 dates, or approximately dated minus 28 cents on a FOB equivalent basis, Reuters calculations showed.

* Also on Wednesday, BP bid for two Forties cargoes, one with Sept. 2-11 dates at dated plus $1.45 CIF Rotterdam, and another with Sept. 4-6 dates at dated plus 75 cents FOB.

* Shell offered a Sept. 4-6 Forties cargo at dated plus $1.15 FOB.

* There were no trades, bids or offers for WTI Midland on Wednesday.

* WTI Midland last traded on Aug. 2, when Equinor bought an Aug. 28 - Sept. 1 cargo from Trafigura at dated plus $2.00 CIF Rotterdam, or around dated plus $1.09 on a FOB basis according to Reuters calculations.

* Forties was again the cheapest grade underpinning the dated Brent benchmark on Wednesday and therefore continued to set its value.
