This is a simple problem. Just take 34,700,000 and divide by 4 to get the answer, 8,675,000 gallons.
An oil tanker would be carrying crude oil, not refined product. So the answer would be zero.
A typical tanker truck can carry between 5,000 to 11,000 gallons of crude oil, depending on its size and design. This translates to approximately 120 to 260 barrels of crude oil, as one barrel is equivalent to 42 gallons. The exact capacity may vary based on regulations and the specific configuration of the truck.
On the average 19.5 US gallons. See link.
The Crude oil is in US gallons.
1 barrel of crude oil equals 42 US gallons of crude oil.
Tanker takes over
On average, a barrel of light sweet crude oil yields about 19.5 gallons of gasoline after refining.
It takes about 2.14 gallons of crude to get a gallon of gasoline. so 9 gallons would take 19.26 gallons of crude. 9*2.14=19.26
The average capacity of an oil tanker varies significantly based on its type. Generally, a small tanker can hold around 10,000 to 30,000 barrels, while a medium-sized tanker typically carries between 50,000 and 100,000 barrels. Larger tankers, such as Very Large Crude Carriers (VLCCs), can transport approximately 200,000 to 320,000 barrels, and the largest Ultra Large Crude Carriers (ULCCs) can hold over 400,000 barrels. Overall, the capacity of oil tankers can range widely depending on their design and purpose.
There are 42 US gallons of crude oil in one barrel.
MR oil tanker actually refers to Medium Range Product Tanker which is between 42,000 dwt to 59,999 dwt. There are two categories of ships in the oil tanker industry. First are the Product tankers which transport refined petroleum products like gasoline, diesel, naphtha, aviation fuel, etc. Second are the Crude carriers which transport unrefined crude oil.
