Formula
bbl/day = bbl/hr × 24
Multiply any value in oil barrels per hour by 24 to obtain the value in oil barrels per day.
Worked example
Convert 10 bbl/hr to bbl/day.
- 01Start with 10 bbl/hr.
- 02Multiply by the conversion factor: 10 × 24 = 240 bbl/day.
Result10 bbl/hr = 240 bbl/day

FAQ
What is the conversion factor from bbl/hr to bbl/day?
1 bbl/hr equals 24 bbl/day. To convert, multiply the value in oil barrels per hour by 24.
How do I convert 1 bbl/hr to bbl/day?
1 bbl/hr = 24 bbl/day. For any value, multiply by 24.
How do I convert bbl/day back to bbl/hr?
Divide by the same factor — or equivalently, multiply by 0.04166667. So 1 bbl/day = 0.0416667 bbl/hr.
When would I need to convert oil barrel per hour to oil barrel per day?
Flow-rate conversions show up in pump curve interpretation, control valve sizing (Cv vs Kv), and aligning vendor specifications with process simulation outputs. bbl/hr to bbl/day 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).
