About this calculator
The oil barrel (bbl) is the standard unit for pricing and trading crude oil, historically standardized at 42 US gallons, which equals 158.987 litres. The unit dates back to 19th-century Pennsylvania oil, where 42-gallon wooden barrels became the trade standard partly because that size accounted for evaporation and leakage during shipping.
Because oil benchmarks like WTI and Brent are quoted in dollars per barrel while most of the world measures volume in litres, this converter is useful for energy analysts, traders and anyone reconciling production or consumption figures reported in barrels against metric fuel data.
