What does ounce/gallon (UK) measure?

It measures density as mass in avoirdupois ounces per imperial (UK) gallon of volume.

Why convert ounce/gallon (UK) to psi/1000 feet?

To express fluid density as a hydrostatic pressure gradient important in wellbore and drilling engineering.

Is the conversion exact for all fluid conditions?

No, it assumes standard gravity and fluid column conditions; varying conditions may require corrections.
