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 is 50000 metric tons?

To convert metric tons of oil to barrels, you can use the approximate conversion factor that 1 metric ton of crude oil is roughly equivalent to 7.33 barrels. Therefore, 50,000 metric tons would be about 366,500 barrels (50,000 x 7.33). Keep in mind that this conversion can vary slightly based on the type of oil.


How many metric tons of crude in 100000 barrels?

One barrel of crude oil is approximately equivalent to 0.136 metric tons. Therefore, 100,000 barrels of crude oil would be roughly 13,600 metric tons (100,000 barrels x 0.136 metric tons per barrel). Keep in mind that this conversion can vary slightly depending on the specific density of the crude oil.


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.

How many metric tonnes are in 4000000 barrels of oil?

To convert barrels of oil to metric tonnes, you can use the approximate conversion factor of 0.136 metric tonnes per barrel. Therefore, 4,000,000 barrels of oil is roughly equivalent to about 544,000 metric tonnes (4,000,000 barrels × 0.136 tonnes/barrel). However, this can vary slightly depending on the type of crude oil, as different oils have different densities.


How many metric tons of crude in 100000 barrels?

One barrel of crude oil is approximately equivalent to 0.136 metric tons. Therefore, 100,000 barrels of crude oil would be roughly 13,600 metric tons (100,000 barrels x 0.136 metric tons per barrel). Keep in mind that this conversion can vary slightly depending on the specific density of the crude oil.


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.

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 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.
