How many bbl in a DWT?

Answer 1

A deadweight ton (DWT) is a measure of a ship's carrying capacity, including cargo, fuel, and provisions, and does not directly convert to barrels (bbl). However, for crude oil, a common conversion is that one DWT is approximately equivalent to 0.7 barrels of oil. This can vary based on the specific gravity of the oil being transported. Therefore, to find the number of barrels in a specific DWT, you would need to know the type of cargo and its density.
