bbl stands for billion barrels. One gallon of diesel weighs 7.3 lbs. Since there are 55 gallons per barrel, the contents of one full barrel would be close to 400 lbs. 10 trillion barrels is therefore 4x1015 lbs, or 2 trillion tons.

When the fuel is burned, the carbon and hydrogen are oxidized releasing water vapor and carbon dioxide. Since two atoms of oxygen combine with one of carbon, the weight of the gas released exceeds the weight of the fuel burned by about a factor of three.

How many metric tons are in 2 million barrels of oil?

A barrel of crude oil contains 42 US gallons and each gallon of crude oil weighs about 7 pounds. Two million barrels contains 84 million US gallons of crude oil weighing about 588,000,000 pounds. One metric ton is equal to 2,240 pounds, so:588,000,000 pounds / 2,240 = about 262,500 metric tons in 2 million barrels


How many gallons of diesel can a locomotives tank carry?

Assuming you mean the cargo and not the fuel to power the tanker...172 million gallons of oil. (42 gallons per barrel, times 4.1m bbl per the article below)"Supertankers" are generally defined as those greater than 250,000 tonnes deadweight (meaning the maximum weight they can carry when fully loaded). Today's supertankers, on average, can carry about 2 million barrels or 84 million gallons of crude oil and petroleum product. The largest supertanker in the world is the Norwegian-owned Knock Nevis which is 647,955 tonnes deadweight and can hold 4.1 million barrels of petroleum.Source: http://www.eia.doe.gov/emeu/cabs/Saudi_Arabia/pdf.pdf


How many cubic liters of water in one cubic meter container?

Forget the word "cubic litre". It is really wrong. Say simply "litre". 1 cubic metre is equivalent to 1,000 litres = exactly ~35.3 cubic feet (approximately)1 cu ft = 0.028316846 m3 = exactly~1.31 cubic yards (approximately)1 cu yd = 0.764554857 m3 = exactly~6.29 oil barrels (approximately)1 oil bbl = 0.158987294 m3 = exactlyA cubic metre of pure water at the temperature of maximum density (3.98 °C) and standard atmospheric pressure (101.325 kPa) has a mass of 1000 kilogram, or one tonne.sorry mistake correct is 1 cubic metre = 1000 litres
