What is a kilobarrel (US)/day?

It is a volumetric flow unit representing 1,000 US oil barrels per day, commonly used in the oil and gas industry for measuring production and throughput.

Why convert kilobarrel (US)/day to gallon (UK)/minute?

To express oil flow rates in units compatible with engineering and plumbing applications that use UK gallons per minute, facilitating integration with imperial measurement systems.

Can this conversion be used for mass flow calculations?

No, this tool converts volumetric flow only; mass flow requires additional information about fluid density.

Tips & Best Practices

Verify unit selections before conversion to ensure accurate interpretation of results
Use this tool for volumetric flow rate conversions only; consult additional resources for mass flow calculations
Apply conversions carefully when integrating with legacy systems using UK gallon flow units
Consider standard volume definitions as this conversion doesn’t adjust for temperature or pressure effects

Limitations

Does not account for changes in fluid density due to temperature or pressure variations
Specific to US oil barrels and UK gallons; alternative barrel or gallon definitions require different conversion factors
Converts volumetric flow; accurate mass flow conversion requires fluid density data
