Best Answer

42 U.S. gallons are in a barrel of petroleum.
A barrel is a unit of volume that has not been standarised. Values in common use range from 100 litres (22 imp. gals or 26 US gals) to 200 litres (44 imp gal)

In the USA and Canada an oil barrel is 159 litres or 35 imperial gallons.

So it's a mess.

Why bbl for barrel?

In the early 1860's, when oil production began, there was no standard container for oil, so oil and petroleum products were stored and transported in barrels of all different shapes and sizes (beer barrels, fish barrels, molasses barrels, turpentine barrels, etc.). By the early 1870's, the 42-gallon barrel had been adopted as the standard for oil trade. This was 2 gallons per barrel more than the 40-gallon standard used by many other industries at the time. The extra 2 gallons was to allow for evaporation and leaking during tranport (most barrels were made of wood). Standard Oil began manufacturing 42 gallon barrels that were blue to be used for transporting petroleum. The use of a blue barrel, abbreviated "bbl," guaranteed a buyer that this was a 42-gallon barrel.found this on seekingalpha.com
