How much waste is in a barrel of crude oil?
zero west
How much fuel does a cargo ship use?
Many ships use MDO or Marine Diesel Oil, sometimes also known as #2 Diesel. Ships can also use HFO or Heavy Fuel Oil or Bunker C. These are crude oil derivatives that are largely unrefined. They are very thick and need to be heated by steam in order to reduce its viscosity to allow them to flow.
How much oil comes from off shore oil platforms?
According to an internet search, about 30% of the world's crude oil production comes from offshore rigs.

How much crude oil does it take to make fuel oil?
1 liter
What is jet fuel made from?
It's very much like kerosene or paraffin. It is refined from crude oil.
How much does 1 cubic meter of crude oil weigh with density 867?
How much does 1 cubic meter of fuel oil weigh
Where does kerosene come from agriculturally?
It does not come from anywhere agriculturally. It is extracted from crude oil, much like gasoline or diesel fuel.
How much diesel fuel comes from one barrel of oil?
From each 42-gallon of crude oil, about 19.5 gallons of gasoline is produced.
How much time it takes to make crude oil?
Crude oil is a natural resource, so you don't really make it. It takes hundreds of millions of years to create fossil fuel, if that's what your looking for.
How much does Iran sell a barrell of oil for?

What is diesel fuel?
Diesel fuel is the kind of fuel used by diesel engines. Its a combustible fuel refined from crude oil - just as is gasoline - but diesel has a much higher flash point than gasoline. Its grade is measured in cetane rather than octane
Why does petroleum have to be refined?
Petroleum comes out of the ground as crude oil. Crude oil has different properties it is not clean and depending on where it is from needs cleaning up and the removal of components that are not desirable in the running of an engine. Crude is divided into many different products ranging from plastic to petrol to highly refined fuels like petrol. To run an engine on straight crude oil you would need a much bigger engine much more fuel and it would prove to be environmentally very bad.You would also need a totally different system for getting the fuel into the cylinders because crude oil is very thick and would not flow or evaporate like petrol
One barrelhow much liters?
I suppose it depends on the size of the barrell...
Do thick fuels burn faster?
Fuels are any mixture of a flammable substance and oxygen, as nothing can undergo combustion without the presence of oxygen. Depending on the air-fuel mixture, the fuel may burn poorly or not at all. The actual density of the fuel and the molecular construction of the fuel are factors wich play a role within the combustion process. Crude oil proves to be a poor fuel source compared to the refined gasoline it can produces, with the crude burning slowly and poorly, and the gasoline burning rapidly. Unprocessed crude oil is much denser than gasoline. This may not hold true for other fuel sources however, such as coal and wood.
How much gasoline is produced from one barrel of oil?
One barrel (42 gallons) of crude oil, when refined, yields approximately 19.6 gallons of finished motor gasoline. The remainder of the barrel yields distillate fuel oil, residual fuel oil, jet fuel, and other products.
