About Converting Pounds per Oil barrel to Long tons per Gallon
Pound per Oil barrel and Long ton 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
long tons per gallon = pounds per oil barrel × 0.0000106292517007
This factor comes from each unit's defined relationship to the category's base unit: 1 pound per oil barrel equals 2.85301017421 base units, and 1 long ton per gallon equals 268411.19719 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct pound per oil barrel-to-long ton per gallon factor of 0.0000106292517007.
Simple example
1 lb/bbl × 0.0000106292517 = 0.0000106293 long ton/gal
1 pound per oil barrel = 0.0000106293 long tons per gallon.
Real-world example
1,000 lb/bbl × 0.0000106292517 = 0.0106292517 long ton/gal
1,000 pounds per oil barrel = 0.0106292517 long tons per gallon.
