About Converting Imperial gallons per Millisecond to Oil barrel per Seconds
Imperial gallon per Millisecond and Oil barrel per Seconds 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
oil barrel per seconds = imperial gallons per millisecond × 28.5940458454
This factor comes from each unit's defined relationship to the category's base unit: 1 imperial gallon per millisecond equals 4.54609 base units, and 1 oil barrel per seconds equals 0.158987294928 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct imperial gallon per millisecond-to-oil barrel per seconds factor of 28.5940458454.
Simple example
1 imp gal/ms × 28.59404585 = 28.59404585 bbl/s
1 imperial gallon per millisecond = 28.59404585 oil barrel per seconds.
Real-world example
60 imp gal/ms × 28.59404585 = 1,715.642751 bbl/s
60 imperial gallons per millisecond = 1,715.642751 oil barrel per seconds.

How do I convert oil barrel per seconds back to imperial gallon per millisecond?
Use the reverse factor: 1 oil barrel per seconds equals 0.0349723158 imperial gallons per millisecond. You can also use the swap control in the converter above to flip the direction instantly.
What is a imperial gallon per millisecond?
Imperial gallon per Millisecond (imp gal/ms) is a unit of flow rate.
What is a oil barrel per seconds?
Oil barrel per Seconds (bbl/s) is a unit of flow rate.
Is the imperial gallon per millisecond to oil barrel per seconds conversion exact?
Yes. Both imperial gallon per millisecond and oil barrel per seconds are defined by fixed standards rather than physical artifacts, so the factor of 28.59404585 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.
