Source: http://www.eppo.go.th/ref/UNIT-OIL.htmlCrude petroleum, and the refined products made from crude oil, are normally measured either by volume in gallons and US barrels, or by weight in tons or tonnes. The relationship between volume and weight is usually measured by density in the United Kingdom (the alternative measure is relative density or specific gravity). American oilmen usually reckon quantities of oil produced, moved or processed in barrels per day (bpd or b/d). The loose but simple rule of thumb for conversion is that a barrel a day is roughly 50 tonnes a year, but the relationship varies according to density and so according to product.

This term is used particularly for the natural gas from the North Sea and from Algeria. Degree-days = the number of degree-days of a day is calculated on the basis of a reference temperature set by experience at 16.5 C; it gives the difference between that reference temperature and the daily mean temperature if the latter is the lower. The number of degree-days of a year is the sum of the degree-days registered for each day of that year.
