Formula

Formula
m³/hr = bbl/day × 0.006624471

Multiply any value in oil barrels per day by 0.006624471 to obtain the value in cubic metres per hour.

Worked example

Convert 1000 bbl/day to m³/hr.

  1. 01Start with 1000 bbl/day.
  2. 02Multiply by the conversion factor: 1000 × 0.006624471 = 6.62447 m³/hr.
Result1000 bbl/day = 6.62447 m³/hr

FAQ

What is the conversion factor from bbl/day to m³/hr?
1 bbl/day equals 0.006624471 m³/hr. To convert, multiply the value in oil barrels per day by 0.006624471.
How do I convert 1 bbl/day to m³/hr?
1 bbl/day = 0.00662447 m³/hr. For any value, multiply by 0.006624471.
How do I convert m³/hr back to bbl/day?
Divide by the same factor — or equivalently, multiply by 150.9555. So 1 m³/hr = 150.955 bbl/day.
When would I need to convert oil barrel per day to cubic metre per hour?
Flow-rate conversions show up in pump curve interpretation, control valve sizing (Cv vs Kv), and aligning vendor specifications with process simulation outputs. bbl/day to m³/hr is a frequently needed conversion for flow datasheet preparation.
Is the conversion exact?
The factor shown is precise to at least 7 significant figures. For most process-engineering work this is far better than instrument accuracy. For metrology or trade applications, refer to the relevant national standard (NIST, BIPM, ISO 80000).
