What Is This Tool?
This converter changes flow rates measured in hundred-cubic foot per day into barrel (US) per minute units. It helps translate small-scale gas or liquid volumetric flow measurements used in engineering, utility metering, and oil and gas industry applications.
How to Use This Tool?
-
Enter the flow rate value in hundred-cubic foot per day
-
Select the target unit as barrel (US) per minute
-
Click convert to get the equivalent flow rate easily
-
Use the result for engineering calculations or reporting needs
Key Features
-
Converts hundred-cubic foot/day to barrel (US)/minute flow units accurately
-
Browser-based and easy to use with no installation required
-
Supports flow rates relevant to natural gas, water, wastewater, and petroleum industries
-
Useful for operations planning, performance testing, and pipeline management
Examples
-
5 hundred-cubic foot/day equals 0.061843 barrel (US)/minute
-
100 hundred-cubic foot/day equals 1.23685838 barrel (US)/minute
Common Use Cases
-
Reporting small natural gas well or distribution pipeline outputs
-
Expressing utility-scale residential and commercial gas consumption
-
Specifying groundwater pump or wastewater influent flow rates
-
Estimating well production or gathering-line flow in oil and gas operations
-
Planning pump capacities and testing oilfield equipment performance
-
Calculating loading and unloading speeds for petroleum transport
Tips & Best Practices
-
Ensure flow rates represent steady volume flows for accurate conversion
-
Use the converter for typical conditions, as temperature and pressure effects are not accounted for
-
Apply results in operational planning and equipment specification scenarios
-
Verify units carefully before converting to avoid errors in engineering calculations
Limitations
-
Conversion assumes standard conditions without adjustments for temperature or pressure
-
Does not account for phase changes between gas and liquid during measurement
-
Accuracy depends on input flow measurement precision and consistency
Frequently Asked Questions
-
What does hundred-cubic foot per day measure?
-
It measures the volume flow rate of 100 cubic feet of fluid passing a point in one day, often used for small continuous gas or liquid flows.
-
Where is barrel (US) per minute commonly used?
-
This unit is used to quantify liquid flow rates in industrial and oilfield engineering contexts such as pump testing and petroleum transfer.
-
Can this converter handle gas to liquid phase changes?
-
No, the converter is intended for volumetric flow rates under steady conditions and does not consider gas and liquid phase differences.
Key Terminology
-
Hundred-cubic foot/day
-
A volumetric flow rate equal to 100 cubic feet of fluid passing a point within one day, used for small continuous gas or liquid flows.
-
Barrel (US)/minute
-
A volumetric flow rate representing one US petroleum barrel passing a point each minute, used in oilfield and liquid flow applications.
