About Converting Drams per Imperial gallon to Drams per Oil barrel
Dram per Imperial gallon and Dram per Oil barrel both measure density — mass per unit volume — a property used to identify materials, check manufacturing quality, and predict whether something floats or sinks. As a fixed reference point, water has a density of exactly 1000 kg/m³ (1 g/cm³, 1 g/mL) at its temperature of maximum density, which is why many density figures in science and engineering are quoted relative to water. Both are mass per volume density units.
Formula
drams per oil barrel = drams per imperial gallon × 34.9723157544
This factor comes from each unit's defined relationship to the category's base unit: 1 dram per imperial gallon equals 0.389751455715 base units, and 1 dram per oil barrel equals 0.011144570993 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct dram per imperial gallon-to-dram per oil barrel factor of 34.9723157544.
Simple example
1 dr/imp gal × 34.97231575 = 34.97231575 dr/bbl
1 dram per imperial gallon = 34.97231575 drams per oil barrel.
