TNT equivalent is a convention for expressing energy, typically used to describe the energy released in an explosion.The ton of TNT is a unit of energy defined by convention to be 4.184 gigajoules (1 gigacalorie), [1] which is the approximate energy released in the detonation of a metric ton (1,000 kilograms) of TNT.
The report noted that TNT commands around $2.6 billion in subscriber fees, accounting for 30% of Warner Bros. Discovery's revenue from pay TV providers in the U.S.
Over the all development period a total of 2,086 well clusters (containing more than 17,000 wells) have been built and about 2.6 billion tons of oil has been produced. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] The peak production occurred in 1980 when Samotlor produced 158.9 million tons of oil (7 Mbbl/d or 1.1 × 10 ^ 6 m 3 /d). [ 2 ]

A million tons; Megaton TNT equivalent, explosive energy equal to 4.184 petajoules; megatonne, a million tonnes, SI unit of mass; Other uses.
The energy of various amounts of the explosive TNT (kiloton, megaton, gigaton) is often used as a unit of explosion energy, and sometimes of asteroid impacts and violent explosive volcanic eruptions. One ton of TNT produces 4.184 × 10 9 joules, or (by arbitrary definition) exactly 10 9 thermochemical calories (approximately 3.964 × 10 6 BTU ...
Toquepala also produced 38,000 tons of copper cathodes from the SX/EW plant. [5] As of the end of 2009, Toquepala reported about 13 million tons of contained copper metal in proven and probable ore reserves, at an average grade of 0.47% Cu. This corresponds to 2.6 billion tons of ore at 0.47 % Cu + 0.04% Mo + 2.3 gpt Ag.
