1 gal of #2 fuel oil (or diesel for that matter) has an equivalent of 115,000 BTUS.
I say equivalent because it has a little more than that raw (like 136k or so) but the furnace that burns it is only around 85% efficient, therefore you only get 115K BTUS.

How many btu per gallon of heating oil at 130 psi?
#2 fuel oil = 140,000 btu/gallon. Psi does not matter.
How much fuel can you derive from a barrell of crude oil?
From each 42-gallon barrel of crude oil, about 19.6 gallons of gasoline and 9.2 gallons of diesel fuel are refined.
How much fuel does a cargo ship use?
Many ships use MDO or Marine Diesel Oil, sometimes also known as #2 Diesel. Ships can also use HFO or Heavy Fuel Oil or Bunker C. These are crude oil derivatives that are largely unrefined. They are very thick and need to be heated by steam in order to reduce its viscosity to allow them to flow.
Can you blend water and heavy fuel oil?
No, water does not burn. Blending it would reduce the effectiveness of the fuel oil as a fuel.
Where you can find the viscosity temperature chart for fuel oil no6?
Please see the link in the related links section. Please note that actual viscosity of No. 6 fuel oil depends on the actual blend of products and the product specifications of the fuel oil. Fuel oils are usually classified by viscosity and sulfur. In particular more stringent sulfur specifications require more light products (light cycle oil (LCO) or unconverted oil (UCO)) to be blended into No. 6 fuel oil. This results in a less viscous fuel oil. There is no universal standard specification for No. 6 fuel oil.
How Many BTU's per barrel of crude oil?
Approximately 5,800,000 BTUs per 42-gallon barrel.
How many BTUs are there in a gallon of Kerosene?
1 gallon for #1 Kerosene produces 135,000 BTUs. #1 Kerosene is closely related to #1 Diesel and JP8 (Jet Fuel) - they differ chiefly in additives. Likewise, #2 Kerosene, Diesel #2, and Furnace Oil are similar to one another. #2 oils have higher sulfur content, which leads to more eye and lung irritation from the emissions. However, they are also comprised of longer hydrocarbon chains, and therefore weigh more per gallon and also have somewhat higher energy content.
How many btu per gallon are in heavy fuel oil?
No. 6 fuel oil has a combustion value of 151,300 - 155,900 Btu/US gallon.
How many BTU per gallon fuel oil?
approx. 140,000
How many btu per gallon of heating oil at 130 psi?
#2 fuel oil = 140,000 btu/gallon. Psi does not matter.
How many gallons of fuel oil does one inch equal in a 500 gallon fuel tank?

How many mcf of natural gas equals the btu of 1 barrel of crude oil?
A fourty two (42) gallon barrel of oil generates approximately 5,600,000 btus. A cubit foor of nat gas generates 1,200 btus ,there for you would need 4,666.67 cubic feet of gas or 4.6 mcf. Today, an mcf of nat gas costs $2.6 an mcf, a barrel of oil $106. The btu per dollar breakdown looks like this. 5,600,000 btus = 1 barrel of crude oil = $106 5.6m btu / $106 = 52,830 btus per dollar 5,600,000 btus = 4.66 mcf = $12.12 5.6m btus / $12.12 = 462,046 btus per dollar
