That depends how heavy the heavy fuel is. A gallon is a unit of capacity. A metric ton is a unit of mass. The two units are therefore incompatible.
To convert the density of fuel from kilograms to metric tonnes, divide the density value in kilograms by 1000. This is because there are 1000 kilograms in a metric tonne. For example, if the density of the fuel is 800 kilograms per cubic meter, the density in metric tonnes would be 0.8 metric tonnes per cubic meter.
7.5 lbs/gal Bunker fuel is a residual fuel, the exact density depends on the type; 960 kg/m^3 for RMA 30 to 1010 kg/m^3 for RMK 700 at 15C.
The viscosity of Diesel 2 at 37.8 degrees Centigrade is 2 to 6 centistokes. This is equivalent to 32.6 to 45.5 SSU.
The density of diesel fuel oil (20 to 60) at 15 degress Celsius is 820 to 950 kg/m3. In other words, it has from 82 to 95 percent the density of water, or specific gravity (relative to water) of 0.82 to 0.95.
density of Fuel Oil at 15 degree celcius
0.93 tonnes per m3
In a technical sense, any fuel used by ships is bunker fuel. As regards heavy fuel oil, it's either No. 5 or No. 6 fuel oil, and is most commonly No. 6 or "bunker fuel" or "navy special fuel oil" or something similar.No. 6 heavy fuel oil has a specific gravity of about 0.94 to 0.95 at room temperature (68 degrees F), and that translates to a weight density of about 59.3 to 59.9 pounds per cubic foot. Water weighs 62.44 pounds per cubic foot, by comparison at 68 degrees F.

"What is the density of fuel oil?"
Heavy Fuel was created in 1991.
It depends on the oil and it's use. all oils can be measured in fluid ounces, gallons, quarts or liters Fuel oil is measured in barrels (42 gallons), or bunkers 5100 barrels lubricating oils can be measured in drums (55 gallons) and some heavy lubricating oils and greases are measured by weight
Gallons or Liters.
Why did you capitalize "heavy"
131.7g
heard of fatty acids in palm oil but not in marine heavy fuel.
Its not. Its measured in lbs of fuel to lbs of air at STP conditions. This is of course assuming you're in the US, otherwiese i dont know.
