About Converting Megagrams per Imperial gallon to Kilograms per Oil barrel
Megagram per Imperial gallon and Kilogram 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
kilograms per oil barrel = megagrams per imperial gallon × 34972.3157544
This factor comes from each unit's defined relationship to the category's base unit: 1 megagram per imperial gallon equals 219969.248299 base units, and 1 kilogram per oil barrel equals 6.28981077043 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct megagram per imperial gallon-to-kilogram per oil barrel factor of 34972.3157544.
Simple example
1 Mg/imp gal × 34972.31575 = 34,972.31575 kg/bbl
1 megagram per imperial gallon = 34,972.31575 kilograms per oil barrel.
Real-world example
1,000 Mg/imp gal × 34972.31575 = 34,972,315.75 kg/bbl
1,000 megagrams per imperial gallon = 34,972,315.75 kilograms per oil barrel.

Multiply the megagram per imperial gallon value by 34972.31575. The converter above does this instantly to whatever precision you set.
How do I convert kilogram per oil barrel back to megagram per imperial gallon?
Use the reverse factor: 1 kilogram per oil barrel equals 0.000028594 megagrams per imperial gallon. You can also use the swap control in the converter above to flip the direction instantly.
What is a megagram per imperial gallon?
Megagram per Imperial gallon (Mg/imp gal) is a unit of density.
What is a kilogram per oil barrel?
Kilogram per Oil barrel (kg/bbl) is a unit of density.
Is the megagram per imperial gallon to kilogram per oil barrel conversion exact?
Yes. Both megagram per imperial gallon and kilogram per oil barrel are defined by fixed standards rather than physical artifacts, so the factor of 34972.31575 used above is exact to as many digits as you choose to display.
What's the difference between density and mass concentration?
Density is the mass of a pure substance or material per unit volume. Mass concentration is the mass of one component — like a dissolved solute — within a mixture's total volume. The two use the same kind of units but describe different physical situations.
