How many gallons in a barrel of oil?
In: Science
Answer
There are 55 gallons in a drum and 42 gallons in a barrel. Originally there were 40 gallons to a barrel however, that was changed in the mid 19th century to give a little extra so consumers wouldn't feel "cheated".
A little over 23 gallons of gasoline can be refined from a barrel of oil. Other products (jet fuel, lubricants, etc.) make up the rest.
