One metric ton of oil is equivalent to approximately 1,000 liters, depending on the density of the specific type of oil. Generally, most liquid oils have a density close to 0.8 to 0.9 kg/L. Thus, a metric ton of oil can be roughly estimated to be around 1,100 to 1,250 liters, but the exact volume can vary with the specific oil type.

How many trees to plant to offset 1 metric ton? Eg; 1865 reams of paper = 4.66 metric ton 1865 / 400 reams = 1 metric ton
1 metric ton = 2,204.62262 pounds
1 short ton = 0.9078 metric tons 1 long ton = 1.016 metric tons
The density of no 2 oil is given as 0.72 kg/liter (Wikipedia), therefore 1 metric ton of 1000 kilograms will contain 1389 liters = 365.5 US gallons
