About Converting Pounds per Quart to Drams per Oil barrel
Pound per Quart and Dram 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
drams per oil barrel = pounds per quart × 43008
This factor comes from each unit's defined relationship to the category's base unit: 1 pound per quart equals 479.305709268 base units, and 1 dram per oil barrel equals 0.011144570993 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct pound per quart-to-dram per oil barrel factor of 43008.
Simple example
1 lb/qt × 43008 = 43,008 dr/bbl
1 pound per quart = 43,008 drams per oil barrel.
Real-world example
1,000 lb/qt × 43008 = 43,008,000 dr/bbl
1,000 pounds per quart = 43,008,000 drams per oil barrel.

What is a pound per quart?
Pound per Quart (lb/qt) is a unit of density.
What is a dram per oil barrel?
Dram per Oil barrel (dr/bbl) is a unit of density.
Is the pound per quart to dram per oil barrel conversion exact?
Yes. Both pound per quart and dram per oil barrel are defined by fixed standards rather than physical artifacts, so the factor of 43008 used above is exact to as many digits as you choose to display.
