Examples

1

Consider that a tanker truck transports 200 barrels (petroleum) of crude oil.
Convert this volume from barrels (petroleum) to Cubic Meter.

Answer:

Given:

The volume in barrel (petroleum) is:

Volume(Barrel (Petroleum)) = 200

Formula:

The formula to convert volume from barrel (petroleum) to cubic meter is:

Volume(Cubic Meter) = Volume(Barrel (Petroleum)) × 0.158987294928

Substitution:

Substitute given weight Volume(Barrel (Petroleum)) = 200 in the above formula.

Volume(Cubic Meter) = 200 × 0.158987294928

Volume(Cubic Meter) = 31.7975

Final Answer:

Therefore, 200 bl is equal to 31.7975 m^3.

The volume is 31.7975 m^3, in cubic meter.

2

Consider that a pipeline transfers 500 barrels (petroleum) of refined oil per day.
Convert this flow rate from barrels (petroleum) to Cubic Meter.

Answer:

Given:

The volume in barrel (petroleum) is:

Volume(Barrel (Petroleum)) = 500

Formula:

The formula to convert volume from barrel (petroleum) to cubic meter is:

Volume(Cubic Meter) = Volume(Barrel (Petroleum)) × 0.158987294928

Substitution:

Substitute given weight Volume(Barrel (Petroleum)) = 500 in the above formula.

Volume(Cubic Meter) = 500 × 0.158987294928

Volume(Cubic Meter) = 79.4936

Final Answer:

Therefore, 500 bl is equal to 79.4936 m^3.

The volume is 79.4936 m^3, in cubic meter.

Barrel (Petroleum)

The petroleum barrel is a standard unit of measurement for crude oil and other petroleum products. Originating in the early oil industry of the 19th century, it has become the globally accepted unit for quantifying oil volumes. Historically, the use of the petroleum barrel facilitated trade and transport, allowing for standardized transactions and efficient handling. Today, it remains a fundamental measure in the oil industry, used extensively in production, shipping, and trading.

Cubic Meter

The cubic meter is a unit of measurement used to quantify three-dimensional volumes, widely applied in construction, engineering, and various scientific fields. It is defined as the volume of a cube with sides each measuring one meter in length. Originating from the metric system, the cubic meter provides a standardized measure for large-scale volume calculations. Historically, it has been used to measure everything from building materials to liquid capacities. Today, it is a fundamental unit in many countries for tasks such as calculating space in buildings, shipping volumes, and in environmental and industrial measurements.
