You need to find the density of the oil, from this you will be able to calculate the volume.
You can't calculate that if you know nothing about the shape of the tank.
That's really going to depend on the height of the 500bbl vertical oil tank. We could also calculate the answer if we knew the shape and dimensions of the floor of the tank, but you haven't included that information either.
If we assume that the pipe is completely full of oil, it would just be the volume of the pipe = pi * r2 * l, where pi = 3.14159, r = radius, and l = length of the pipe. If the pipe is not full, then multiply the volume by the percentage of oil in the pipe. For example, if 50% full, then multiply by .5. If the pipe bends, take into account the different volume of the bend. If the bend is 90 degrees, this can be accomplished by taking the average length of the two bent segments for the length.
I use math regularly to balance my checkbook, calculate my gas mileage, estimate the next time I need an oil change, to determine how much I need to save to cover time off, to double a recipe while cooking, and in many other ways.
A deadweight ton (DWT) is a unit of measurement for a ship's cargo capacity, not directly related to the volume of oil. The amount of oil that can be carried in a DWT depends on the density of the oil and the specific characteristics of the ship's storage tanks.
Oil tankers vary in size by a huge margin, from a few thousand tonnes DWT to 500,000 tonnes DWT. The density of crude oil also varies, averaging around 0.7 kgs per litre. There are 159 ltrs (apprx) per barrel. From this you can calculate how much each type can carry.
In 2005, the price for new oil tankers in the 32,000-45,000 DWT, 80,000-105,000 DWT, and 250,000-280,000 DWT ranges were US$43 million, $58 million, and $120 million respectively.In 1985 these vessels would have cost $18 million, $22 million, and $47 million respectively.Oil tankers are often sold second-hand. In 2005, 27.3 million DWT worth of oil tankers were sold used. Some representative prices for that year include $42.5M for a 40,000 DWT tanker, $60.7 million for a 80,000-95,000 DWT, $73 million for a 130,000-150,000 DWT, and $116 million for 250,000-280,000 DWT tanker. For a concrete example, in 2006, Bonheur subsidiary First Olsen paid US$76.5 million for Knock Sheen, a 159,899 DWT tankerthese days people dont really buy tanker ships, they are purchased by big multinational and investment companies who rent them out to shipping companies. this prices are currently not much of public knowledge since the pricing stays between the big companies and the ship builders. its believed to be between 50 million dollars to 200 million depending on the tonnage. hope this helps.
A Oil Tanker can carry up to 550,000 DWT '' Dead Weight Tons'' DelSol_Racer.
This cannot be determined because DWT (deadweight tons) includes the crew, passengers, cargo, fuel, water, and stores.
MR oil tanker actually refers to Medium Range Product Tanker which is between 42,000 dwt to 59,999 dwt. There are two categories of ships in the oil tanker industry. First are the Product tankers which transport refined petroleum products like gasoline, diesel, naphtha, aviation fuel, etc. Second are the Crude carriers which transport unrefined crude oil.

Oil tanker ships come in various sizes, from about 20,000 tons to 500,000 tons. "Supertankers" are generally defined as those greater than 250,000 tonnes dead-weight (meaning the maximum weight they can carry when fully loaded). Today's supertankers, on average, can carry about 2 million barrels or 84 million gallons of crude oil and petroleum product. The largest supertanker in the world is the Norwegian-owned Knock Nevis which is 647,955 tonnes dead-weight and can hold 4.1 million barrels of petroleum.Depending on its size and capacity, oil tankers can hold anything from a few thousand DWT and up to 550 000 DWT in ultra large crude tankers.DWT is Deadweight Tonnage. 550 000 DWT roughly equals 4 million barrels of crude oil.
This is because oil based are irritating and may burn the walls of the blood vessels of the person. They are thick and may become too hot when in contact with the surface of the blood vessels. This may cause rupture or burn of the vessels.

Oil was not yest used in Titanic's time. Her fuel was solid coal. But oil was not long off. It was used for newer vessels but nothing could be converted during wartime (1914-18). After the war, all vessels were converted to oil.
Do you actually know what an oil-rig is? The term oil rig is used by those interested in finding oil-rig-jobs within the offshore oil industry without understanding how generic the term is. The offshore oil industry includes many operations and oil related functions and all offer offshore employment opportunities There are production platforms, there are DP drill ships, DP and Anchored Drilling Semi-submersibles, Jackup Drilling Rigs, Drilling Tenders and barges, Floating Production, Storage, Offtake Vessels (FPSO's), Dive Support Vessels, Pipe Layers, Seismic Survey Vessels, Standby Vessels, Crane Barges, Offshore Supply Vessels, Anchor Handlers, Rock and Stone Dumpers and a few other specilaist offshore vessels as well.
