bbl/hrtogph (US)

Convert oil barrels per hour (bbl/hr) to US gallons per hour (gph (US)).

Factor1 bbl/hr = 42 gph (US)

Converter

bbl/hr

Accepts numbers or expressions, e.g. 150 + 14.7

Result
420gph (US)

Rendered to 6 significant figures.

Formula

Formula
gph (US) = bbl/hr × 42

Multiply any value in oil barrels per hour by 42 to obtain the value in US gallons per hour.

Worked example

Convert 10 bbl/hr to gph (US).

  1. 01Start with 10 bbl/hr.
  2. 02Multiply by the conversion factor: 10 × 42 = 420 gph (US).
Result10 bbl/hr = 420 gph (US)

FAQ

What is the conversion factor from bbl/hr to gph (US)?
1 bbl/hr equals 42 gph (US). To convert, multiply the value in oil barrels per hour by 42.
How do I convert 1 bbl/hr to gph (US)?
1 bbl/hr = 42 gph (US). For any value, multiply by 42.
How do I convert gph (US) back to bbl/hr?
Divide by the same factor — or equivalently, multiply by 0.02380952. So 1 gph (US) = 0.0238095 bbl/hr.
When would I need to convert oil barrel per hour to US gallon 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/hr to gph (US) 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).
