how many liters is in a barrel of oil
Barrel (unit) In the worldwide oil industry, an oil barrel is defined as 42 US gallons, which is about 7002159000000000000â™ 159 litres[10] or 35 imperial gallons.[11] In Canada, oil companies measure oil in cubic metres but convert to barrels on export, since most of Canada's oil production is exported to the US. The nominal conversion factor is 1 cubic metre = 6.2898 oil barrels,[12] but conversion is generally done by custody transfer meters on the border since the exact conversion factor depends on oil density and temperature.
Arctic Refuge drilling controversy In 1998, the USGS estimated that between 5.7 and 16.0 billion barrels (2.54×109 m3) of technically recoverable crude oil and natural gas liquids are in the coastal plain area of ANWR, with a mean estimate of 10.4 billion barrels (1.65×109 m3), of which 7.7 billion barrels (1.22×109 m3) lie within the Federal portion of the ANWR 1002 Area.[25] In comparison, the estimated volume of undiscovered, technically recoverable oil in the rest of the United States is about 120 billion barrels (1.9×1010 m3).[37]
