This is done with API Table 6 A for crude oil, 6 B for products 6 c for NLS, and Table 11.

1. Convert Gross barrels to Net Barrels at 60F/15C. You need the cargo temperature and its API gravity with Table 6 A,B, or C

2. Convert Net barrels at 60F to long tons using Table 11, you need only the API gravity.

To convert barrels (bbl) to long tons (UK ton), you need to know the specific substance being measured due to different conversion factors for different types of material. For example, for crude oil, 1 barrel is approximately 0.1364 long tons. It's best to refer to a conversion table specific to the substance in question for accuracy.

You don't. Tons measure mass, whilst barrels measure volume.

Actually, you can. To convert barrels to metric tons, you have to first know the API or specific gravity of the product. So let's take a gasoline with an API of 57.0. and we'll say we have 25k bbls. You must first convert the barrels to gallons. 25,000 x 42 = 1,050,000.00 gallons Then you have to know what the pounds per gallon for that gasoline is, which in this case is 6.249 lbs/gal 1,050,000.00 x 6.249 = 6,561,450.00 pounds You then take your pounds and convert them to metric tons, which you would divide your pounds by 2204.62 6,561,450.00 / 2204.62 = 2,976.227 metric tons In order to convert MT to BBLS, just do the reverse. Enjoy!
