Petroleum has a specific gravity of 0.88 which means 1 liter weighs 0.88 kilograms.
From the volume page we know that:
1 barrel [US, petroleum] = 158.9872972 liter
So 1 barrel weighs:
158.9872972 * 0.88 = 139.908821536 kilograms
1 metric ton is 1000 kilograms:
139.908821536 / 1000 = 7.1475121
So there are a little over 7 barrels of petroleum in a metric ton.
This is assuming that 0.88 is the correct specific gravity. Since as you said, the grade of the oil may make a difference. If you know the exact specific gravity of the oil in question, you will get more accurate results.

How many barrels of oil and gas are in one derivatives futures contract?
New York Mercantile Exchange Middle East crude oil futurecontract trades with prices quoted in dollars and cents per barrel ($00.00/bbl) and a contract unit of 1,000 barrels. The max/min price fluctuation rules are consistent with the Exchange's light, sweet crude oil future contract as are settlement procedures. http://www.tkfutures.com/crude_oil.htm I'm sure there is a better source, but this was within the first few google serach.
How much is one heating oil future contract in gallons?
A heating oil futures contract is 1000 US barrels, or 42,000 gallons. A semi with a oil tank holds 5,000 gallons, so one futures contract equals seven truckloads of oil.
How many barrels a day can a horizontal oil well produce?
Unfortunately, there is not good answer. The flow into a horizontal well will depend on the formation and oil properties. This can be stated as transmissibility = Ko x h/ visc where Ko is the oil permeability, h is the formation thickness and visc is the oil viscosity. It can be more complicated than this, but the higher this transmissibility, the higher the initial flow rate. Of course, the extent of the horizontal well is also important, and artificial lift may be used to increase flow.
What is the difference between thousand barrels per calendar day mbcd and thousands barrels per operating day mbod?
Barrels per calendar day: The amount of input that a distillation facility can process under usual operating conditions. The amount is expressed in terms of capacity during a 24-hour period and reduces the maximum processing capability of all units at the facility under continuous operation to account for the following limitations that may delay, interrupt, or slow down production. 1. the capability of downstream processing units to absorb the output of crude oil processing facilities of a given refinery. No reduction is necessary for intermediate streams that are distributed to other than downstream facilities as part of a refinery's normal operation; 2. the types and grades of inputs to be processed; 3. the types and grades of products expected to be manufactured; 4. the environmental constraints associated with refinery operations; 5. the reduction of capacity for scheduled downtime due to such conditions as routine inspection, maintenance, repairs, and turnaround; and 6. the reduction of capacity for unscheduled downtime due to such conditions as mechanical problems, repairs, and slowdowns.Barrels per stream day: The maximum number of barrels of input that a distillation facility can process within a 24-hour period when running at full capacity under optimal crude and product slate conditions with no allowance for downtime.From U.S. Energy Information Administration
How do you calculate the volume of hydraulic oil in any hydraulic circuit?
calculate the no of pipes in the circuit & then work out the volume based on the area.
20 metric ton of crude oil will come to how many barrels of crude?
Assuming 1 metric ton of crude oil ~ 7.33 barrels them 20 metric tons of crude oil ~ 20 x 7.33 barrels =146.60 barrels of crude oil
How many barrell's of oil are in 50000 metric ton's of oil?
7.2 barrels are equal to 1 metric ton. So the answer is 360,000 barrels.
How many barrels of oil equal 100000 metric tons?
Slightly more than 720,461 barrels. A single metric ton = 1,000kg. So in 100,000 metric tons there are 100,000,000kg (one-hundred million.) A standard barrel of oil weighs 138.8kg. (See link) So, 100,000,000 / 138.8 = 720,461.095 barrels.
How many litres of oil in 1 metric tonnes?
A metric ton is 1000kg, so that is the weight of oil in a metric ton, = 2204.7 lb. The density of crude oil varies but taking it as 0.75 kg/liter, 1000 kg = 1333 liters. There are 160 liters in a barrel, so 1333 liters = 8.33 barrels.
How many barrels of crude oil does it take to make a tire?
Seven barrels
1 metro ton equal how many crude oil barrels?
I am going on the assumption you mean "metric" ton. A standard ton is 2000 pounds. A metric Ton is 2205 pounds. 6-8 oil barrels equal a ton. assuming its 8 in this case, that is 250 lbs per barrel. That equals ALMOST 9 barrels of oil (8.82). If we assume is it 6 barrels per ton, than 2000 divided into 6 is 333.33. A metric ton (2205) divided into 333 equals 6.62. A bit over 6and a half barrels of crude oil in your metric ton.
How many barrels of oil does it take to make a tire?
It takes one barrel of oil to make a tire
How many Barrels per metric ton of crude oil?
As the question is how many barrels per metric ton of 'crude oil', you can use the calculator on the U.S. Energy Information Administrations site:http://tonto.eia.doe.gov/kids/ then select 'energy calculators'Using the crude oil calculator shows 1 metric ton = 7.33 bbl crude oil. Crude oils vary depending on their specific gravity so this is an average for crude oil in the U.S.Depends on density, however 7.33 bbl per tonne is a reasonable estimate.1metric ton(1000kgs)=7.3 barrels. 1barrel=42 US gallons.
How many crude oil barrels make 1 mt?
7.1
How many barrels of oil is 4200000 gallons?
100,000 barrels of oil.
How many barrels of oil from one lot of oil?
1000 barrels
How many metric tons are in 2 million barrels of oil?
A barrel of crude oil contains 42 US gallons and each gallon of crude oil weighs about 7 pounds. Two million barrels contains 84 million US gallons of crude oil weighing about 588,000,000 pounds. One metric ton is equal to 2,240 pounds, so:588,000,000 pounds / 2,240 = about 262,500 metric tons in 2 million barrels
