Thread: fuel amount in a barrel

Tweet

By the looks of Denny's pic, I'd say you could fit more into the barrel if you wipe those silly grins off of their faces...

You will never see two articles match regarding the amount of gasoline produced from a barrel of oil.... the yield is dependent upon too many variables including where the oil came from, the process (they can change the process to yield more of a particular product), etc. Plus, each refinery runs a different yield. According to some friends who work at refineries, some of the info is not made public; only generalizations are given.
