The contents of a barrel of crude oil comprises 42 gallons. One gallon of crude oil weighs about seven pounds. So, 42 x 7 = 294 pounds per barrel.
To convert pounds to barrels, you need to know the density of the substance you are working with. Divide the weight in pounds by the density of the substance in pounds per barrel to get the volume in barrels.
This is done with API Table 6 A for crude oil, 6 B for products 6 c for NLS, and Table 11.1. Convert Gross barrels to Net Barrels at 60F/15C. You need the cargo temperature and its API gravity with Table 6 A,B, or C2. Convert Net barrels at 60F to long tons using Table 11, you need only the API gravity.
To convert tons to barrels, the conversion factor will depend on the type of material being referred to (e.g. oil, wine, etc.) as they all have different densities. For crude oil, which is a common reference, 1 ton is roughly equivalent to 7.33 barrels. Therefore, 60,000 tons of crude oil would be approximately equal to 60,000 * 7.33 = 439,800 barrels.
Volume = Mass/Density.So, if you know the density in terms of pounds per barrel, simply divide the mass by the density. If not, eitheruse dimensional analysis to convert the density from the given units to pounds per barrel, orcalculate the volume in the units used for the density and then conversion to barrels.
To convert gallons to barrels, divide by 42 (since there are 42 gallons in a barrel). For 400 million gallons of gasoline, the equivalent amount in US barrels would be approximately 9.5 million barrels.
The number of barrels needed to fill up a pool depends on the size of the pool. On average, a barrel of oil holds about 42 gallons of oil. You would need to calculate the volume of your pool in gallons and then convert that into barrels to estimate how many barrels you would need to fill it.

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.
