About Converting Oil barrel per Weeks to Gallon per Weeks
Oil barrel per Weeks and Gallon per Weeks both measure volumetric flow rate — how much volume passes a point over time — used to size pipes and pumps, monitor river or stream discharge, control industrial processes, and set medical infusion rates. Both are volumetric flow rate units.
Formula
gallon per weeks = oil barrel per weeks × 42
This factor comes from each unit's defined relationship to the category's base unit: 1 oil barrel per weeks equals 2.628758e-7 base units, and 1 gallon per weeks equals 6.258948e-9 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct oil barrel per weeks-to-gallon per weeks factor of 42.
Simple example
1 bbl/wk × 42 = 42 gal/wk
1 oil barrel per weeks = 42 gallon per weeks.
Real-world example
60 bbl/wk × 42 = 2,520 gal/wk
60 oil barrel per weeks = 2,520 gallon per weeks.

What is a oil barrel per weeks?
Oil barrel per Weeks (bbl/wk) is a unit of flow rate.
What is a gallon per weeks?
Gallon per Weeks (gal/wk) is a unit of flow rate.
Is the oil barrel per weeks to gallon per weeks conversion exact?
Yes. Both oil barrel per weeks and gallon per weeks are defined by fixed standards rather than physical artifacts, so the factor of 42 used above is exact to as many digits as you choose to display.
What's the difference between volumetric and mass flow rate?
Volumetric flow rate measures the volume of fluid passing a point per unit time (for example, liters per second). Mass flow rate measures the mass instead. For a fluid of constant density the two are directly proportional, but for compressible fluids like gases, mass flow is often the more meaningful quantity.
