On average, U.S. petroleum refineries produce about 19 to 20 gallons of gasoline, 11 to 13 gallons of distillate fuel diesel fuel and 3 to 4 gallons of jet fuel from each 42 gallon (152 liters) barrel of crude oil. The product ratio depends upon the processing in an oil refinery and the crude oil assay. [13]
The following table gives flow rate Q such that friction loss per unit length Δp / L (SI kg / m 2 / s 2) is 0.082, 0.245, and 0.816, respectively, for a variety of nominal duct sizes. The three values chosen for friction loss correspond to, in US units inch water column per 100 feet, 0.01, .03, and 0.1.
Break-bulk boats and barges were originally used to transport Pennsylvania oil in 40-US-gallon (150 L) wooden barrels. [9] But transport by barrel had several problems. The first problem was weight: they weighed 29 kilograms (64 lb), representing 20% of the total weight of a full barrel. [ 10 ]
bbl – barrel; bbl/MMscf – barrels per million standard cubic feet; BBG – buy back gas; BBSM – behaviour-based safety management; BCPD – barrels condensate per day; Bcf – billion cubic feet (of natural gas) Bcf/d – billion cubic feet per day (of natural gas) Bcfe – billion cubic feet (of natural gas equivalent) BD – bursting disc
For the next 11 days before the well was capped, between 80,000 and 100,000 barrels (13,000 and 16,000 m 3) of crude oil 336,000 to 420,000 US gallons (1,270,000 to 1,590,000 L; 280,000 to 350,000 imp gal) would be released and an 800-square-mile (2,100 km 2) oil slick was created on the ocean and 30 miles (48 km) of beaches.

Attempts to sell 3- or 4-liter jugs of milk, instead of gallons (3.785 L), have been largely unsuccessful, and such bottles are rarely seen in the United States; milk remains sold in binary divisions of the gallon, with half-pints, pints, quarts and half-gallons being the primary sizes.
Hydraulic fracturing uses between 1.2 and 3.5 million US gallons (4,500 and 13,200 m 3) of water per well, with large projects using up to 5 million US gallons (19,000 m 3). [171] Additional water is used when wells are refractured. [75] [172] An average well requires 3 to 8 million US gallons (11,000 to 30,000 m 3) of water over its lifetime. [67]
The Gw Pat 90 round firing a 4.1 g (63 gr) FMJ bullet is optimized for use in 5.56 mm (.223 in) caliber barrels with a 254 mm (1:10 in) twist rate. The Gw Pat 90 was designed for the SIG SG 550 when it came into production in 1987, replacing the SIG SG 510. Previous experience of a change in standard rifle had proved that changing the distance ...
