First off you would need to know the energy value of the oil, that is the amount of energy released during the combustion of a specified amount of the oil, eg kj/mol.

The energy value for paraffin is around 46Mj/kg. 46 megajoules per kilogram, or 46million joules.

One tonne is one thousand kilograms, so one tonne of paraffin would contain 46 thousand megajoules, or 46 gigajoules (46Gj).
