About Converting Ounces per Oil barrel to Megagrams per Gallon
Ounce per Oil barrel and Megagram per Gallon 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 gallon = ounces per oil barrel × 6.749886e-7
This factor comes from each unit's defined relationship to the category's base unit: 1 ounce per oil barrel equals 0.178313135888 base units, and 1 megagram per gallon equals 264172.052358 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct ounce per oil barrel-to-megagram per gallon factor of 6.749886e-7.
Simple example
1 oz/bbl × 6.749886e-7 = 6.749886e-7 Mg/gal
1 ounce per oil barrel = 6.749886e-7 megagrams per gallon.
Real-world example
1,000 oz/bbl × 6.749886e-7 = 0.0006749886 Mg/gal
1,000 ounces per oil barrel = 0.0006749886 megagrams per gallon.

What is a ounce per oil barrel?
Ounce per Oil barrel (oz/bbl) is a unit of density.
What is a megagram per gallon?
Megagram per Gallon (Mg/gal) is a unit of density.
Is the ounce per oil barrel to megagram per gallon conversion exact?
Yes. Both ounce per oil barrel and megagram per gallon are defined by fixed standards rather than physical artifacts, so the factor of 6.749886e-7 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.
