Formula

Formula
bbl/hr = L/s × 22.64332

Multiply any value in litres per second by 22.64332 to obtain the value in oil barrels per hour.

Worked example

Convert 10 L/s to bbl/hr.

  1. 01Start with 10 L/s.
  2. 02Multiply by the conversion factor: 10 × 22.64332 = 226.433 bbl/hr.
Result10 L/s = 226.433 bbl/hr

FAQ

What is the conversion factor from L/s to bbl/hr?
1 L/s equals 22.64332 bbl/hr. To convert, multiply the value in litres per second by 22.64332.
How do I convert 1 L/s to bbl/hr?
1 L/s = 22.6433 bbl/hr. For any value, multiply by 22.64332.
How do I convert bbl/hr back to L/s?
Divide by the same factor — or equivalently, multiply by 0.04416314. So 1 bbl/hr = 0.0441631 L/s.
When would I need to convert litre per second to oil barrel 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. L/s to bbl/hr is a frequently needed conversion for hydraulic sizing.
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).
