About Converting Kiloliter per Days to Oil barrel per Days
Kiloliter per Days and Oil barrel per Days 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 days = kiloliter per days × 6.28981077043
This factor comes from each unit's defined relationship to the category's base unit: 1 kiloliter per days equals 0.0000115740740741 base units, and 1 oil barrel per days equals 0.00000184013072833 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct kiloliter per days-to-oil barrel per days factor of 6.28981077043.
Simple example
1 kL/d × 6.28981077 = 6.28981077 bbl/d
1 kiloliter per days = 6.28981077 oil barrel per days.
Real-world example
60 kL/d × 6.28981077 = 377.3886462 bbl/d
60 kiloliter per days = 377.3886462 oil barrel per days.

How do I convert oil barrel per days back to kiloliter per days?
Use the reverse factor: 1 oil barrel per days equals 0.1589872949 kiloliter per days. You can also use the swap control in the converter above to flip the direction instantly.
What is a kiloliter per days?
Kiloliter per Days (kL/d) is a unit of flow rate.
What is a oil barrel per days?
Oil barrel per Days (bbl/d) is a unit of flow rate.
Is the kiloliter per days to oil barrel per days conversion exact?
Yes. Both kiloliter per days and oil barrel per days are defined by fixed standards rather than physical artifacts, so the factor of 6.28981077 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.
