What does gram-force meter [gf*m] measure?

Gram-force meter [gf*m] measures mechanical work or energy done by a force of one gram-force acting over one meter.

Why convert to fuel oil equivalent at barrel (US)?

This conversion allows energy from mechanical measurements to be expressed in terms comparable to the energy content of petroleum, useful for energy accounting and fuel comparisons.

Are there accuracy concerns with this conversion?

Yes, variations in standard gravity and fuel oil properties affect precision, and very small values require careful numerical handling.
