About Converting Slugs per Oil barrel to Stones per Gallon
Slug per Oil barrel and Stone 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
stones per gallon = slugs per oil barrel × 0.0547177696538
This factor comes from each unit's defined relationship to the category's base unit: 1 slug per oil barrel equals 91.792887877 base units, and 1 stone per gallon equals 1677.56998244 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct slug per oil barrel-to-stone per gallon factor of 0.0547177696538.
Simple example
1 slug/bbl × 0.05471776965 = 0.0547177697 st/gal
1 slug per oil barrel = 0.0547177697 stones per gallon.
Real-world example
1,000 slug/bbl × 0.05471776965 = 54.71776965 st/gal
1,000 slugs per oil barrel = 54.71776965 stones per gallon.

What is a slug per oil barrel?
Slug per Oil barrel (slug/bbl) is a unit of density.
What is a stone per gallon?
Stone per Gallon (st/gal) is a unit of density.
Is the slug per oil barrel to stone per gallon conversion exact?
