How many barrels of oil in a 75ft x 50ft round tank?

Answer 1

A tank this size contains 353,400 cubic feet of volume. This equates to about 2,644,000 US gallons. Since a barrel of crude oil contains 42 gallons:

• 2,644,000 gallons divided by 42 gallons per barrel = about 62,952.4 barrels of oil in a 75ft x 50ft tank

Answer 2

To calculate the volume of a cylindrical tank, you can use the formula V = πr^2h, where r is the radius and h is the height. First, convert the dimensions to the same unit (let's say feet). The radius would be half of 75ft (since it's a round tank) and the height would be 50ft. Then, calculate the volume in cubic feet. Finally, convert the volume to barrels of oil using the conversion factor 1 barrel = 5.61458 cubic feet.
