About this conversion
This page converts oil barrels per day (bbl/d) into kiloliters per day (kL/d), two units of volumetric flow rate.
The Oil Barrel (bbl) is a unit of volume. The Day (d) is a unit of time.
The Kiloliter (kL) is a unit of volume. The Day (d) is a unit of time.
The formula is kL/d = bbl/d × 0.158987, based on the fixed relationship between these two flow rate units.
Flow rate is calculated as a volume unit divided by a time unit, so every combination of a volume unit and a time unit forms a valid, exact flow rate unit.
