What does ounce per gallon (US) measure?

It measures density as the mass in avoirdupois ounces for every US liquid gallon volume of a substance.

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

This conversion helps relate mass concentration in liquids to hydrostatic pressure gradients relevant in wellbore and fluid column assessments.

Can I use this conversion for all types of fluids?

It works best for incompressible fluids and steady-state conditions; temperature and fluid composition variations can affect accuracy.
