What does therm (EC) measure?

Therm (EC) is an energy unit defined as 100,000 British thermal units and is commonly used for natural gas consumption measurement in Europe.

Why convert therm (EC) to fuel oil equivalent per barrel?

Converting therm (EC) to fuel oil equivalent @barrel (US) allows energy comparisons and accounting between natural gas and petroleum fuels for better reporting and procurement decisions.

Does the fuel oil equivalent value remain constant?

No, the energy content of a U.S. barrel of fuel oil varies depending on the oil’s grade and density, so the exact energy value can differ.
