About Converting Metric tons per Cubic foot to Long tons per Oil barrel
Metric ton per Cubic foot 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 = metric tons per cubic foot × 5.52590956648
This factor comes from each unit's defined relationship to the category's base unit: 1 metric ton per cubic foot equals 35314.6667215 base units, and 1 long ton per oil barrel equals 6390.74279023 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct metric ton per cubic foot-to-long ton per oil barrel factor of 5.52590956648.
Simple example
1 t/ft3 × 5.525909566 = 5.525909566 long ton/bbl
1 metric ton per cubic foot = 5.525909566 long tons per oil barrel.

What is a metric ton per cubic foot?
Metric ton per Cubic foot (t/ft3) 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 metric ton per cubic foot to long ton per oil barrel conversion exact?
Yes. Both metric ton per cubic foot and long ton per oil barrel are defined by fixed standards rather than physical artifacts, so the factor of 5.525909566 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.
