About Converting Megagrams per Imperial gallon to Megagrams per Oil barrel
Megagram per Imperial gallon and Megagram 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
megagrams per oil barrel = megagrams per imperial gallon × 34.9723157544
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 megagram per oil barrel equals 6289.81077043 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct megagram per imperial gallon-to-megagram per oil barrel factor of 34.9723157544.
Simple example
1 Mg/imp gal × 34.97231575 = 34.97231575 Mg/bbl
1 megagram per imperial gallon = 34.97231575 megagrams per oil barrel.
Real-world example
1,000 Mg/imp gal × 34.97231575 = 34,972.31575 Mg/bbl
1,000 megagrams per imperial gallon = 34,972.31575 megagrams per oil barrel.

How do I convert megagram per oil barrel back to megagram per imperial gallon?
Use the reverse factor: 1 megagram per oil barrel equals 0.0285940459 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 megagram per oil barrel?
Megagram per Oil barrel (Mg/bbl) is a unit of density.
Is the megagram per imperial gallon to megagram per oil barrel conversion exact?
Yes. Both megagram per imperial gallon and megagram per oil barrel are defined by fixed standards rather than physical artifacts, so the factor of 34.97231575 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.
