About Converting Imperial gallon per Minutes to Oil barrel per Minutes
Imperial gallon per Minutes and Oil barrel per Minutes 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 minutes = imperial gallon per minutes × 0.0285940458454
This factor comes from each unit's defined relationship to the category's base unit: 1 imperial gallon per minutes equals 0.0000757681666667 base units, and 1 oil barrel per minutes equals 0.0026497882488 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct imperial gallon per minutes-to-oil barrel per minutes factor of 0.0285940458454.
Simple example
1 imp gal/min × 0.02859404585 = 0.0285940459 bbl/min
1 imperial gallon per minutes = 0.0285940459 oil barrel per minutes.
Real-world example
60 imp gal/min × 0.02859404585 = 1.715642751 bbl/min
60 imperial gallon per minutes = 1.715642751 oil barrel per minutes.

What is a imperial gallon per minutes?
Imperial gallon per Minutes (imp gal/min) is a unit of flow rate.
What is a oil barrel per minutes?
Oil barrel per Minutes (bbl/min) is a unit of flow rate.
Is the imperial gallon per minutes to oil barrel per minutes conversion exact?
Yes. Both imperial gallon per minutes and oil barrel per minutes are defined by fixed standards rather than physical artifacts, so the factor of 0.02859404585 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.
