About Converting Megagrams per Gallon to Long tons per Oil barrel
Megagram per Gallon and Long ton 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
long tons per oil barrel = megagrams per gallon × 41.3366741597
This factor comes from each unit's defined relationship to the category's base unit: 1 megagram per gallon equals 264172.052358 base units, and 1 long ton per oil barrel equals 6390.74279023 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct megagram per gallon-to-long ton per oil barrel factor of 41.3366741597.
Simple example
1 Mg/gal × 41.33667416 = 41.33667416 long ton/bbl
1 megagram per gallon = 41.33667416 long tons per oil barrel.
Real-world example
1,000 Mg/gal × 41.33667416 = 41,336.67416 long ton/bbl
1,000 megagrams per gallon = 41,336.67416 long tons per oil barrel.

What is a megagram per gallon?
Megagram per Gallon (Mg/gal) is a unit of density.
What is a long ton per oil barrel?
Long ton per Oil barrel (long ton/bbl) is a unit of density.
Is the megagram per gallon to long ton per oil barrel conversion exact?
Yes. Both megagram per gallon and long ton per oil barrel are defined by fixed standards rather than physical artifacts, so the factor of 41.33667416 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.
