From page 353...
... barrels × 42 = US gallons liters × 0.264 = US gallons cubic meters × 264.2 = US gallons cubic feet × 7.481 = US gallons liters × 0.0009 = tonnes* (note tonnes = metric tons)
From page 354...
... Note that API gravity and specific gravity are inversely proportional as per the formulae below. The 294 gallons/tonne conversion unit is also convenient because it happens that 294 gallons = 7 barrels.
