Petroleum has a specific gravity of 0.88 which means 1 liter weighs 0.88 kilograms.
From the volume page we know that:
1 barrel [US, petroleum] = 158.9872972 liter
So 1 barrel weighs:
158.9872972 * 0.88 = 139.908821536 kilograms
1 metric ton is 1000 kilograms:
139.908821536 / 1000 = 7.1475121
So there are a little over 7 barrels of petroleum in a metric ton.
This is assuming that 0.88 is the correct specific gravity. Since as you said, the grade of the oil may make a difference. If you know the exact specific gravity of the oil in question, you will get more accurate results.

How many barrels is in a metric ton?

How much volume is a metric ton of crude oil?
A metric ton of average crude oil at standard temperature and pressure has a volume of about 7.33 barrels. A cubic meter of oil is about 6.29 barrels. Barrels of oil hold 42 US gallons, so a metric ton of crude oil has a volume of about 308 US gallons or about 256 Imperial gallons
How many barrels is a metric ton?
It depends on the density of the substance in the barrel.

How much oil in a metric ton?
A metric ton is 1000kg, so that is the weight of oil in a metric ton, = 2204.7 lb. The density of crude oil varies but taking it as 0.75 kg/liter, 1000 kg = 1333 liters. There are 160 liters in a barrel, so 1333 liters = 8.33 barrels.
How many barrels of crude oil EQUALS one ton of gas oil?
One ton of crude oil equals 7.3 barrels.
How many barrell's of oil are in 50000 metric ton's of oil?
7.2 barrels are equal to 1 metric ton. So the answer is 360,000 barrels.
20 metric ton of crude oil will come to how many barrels of crude?
Assuming 1 metric ton of crude oil ~ 7.33 barrels them 20 metric tons of crude oil ~ 20 x 7.33 barrels =146.60 barrels of crude oil
How many barrels of jet fuel in a ton?
7.6 barrels of jet fuel is in one ton
How many gas-oil barrels in 1 metric ton?
7.44
How many fuel oil barrels in 1 metric ton?

How many barrels are in one long ton?
That depends what the barrels are of and how much the individual barrels weigh.
What is 1 ton of oil called?
1 ton of oil is called 1 ton of oil. Oil is usually measured in barrels which equal 42 gallons. So making some assumptions a ton of oil would be about 6 barrels or so.
1 metro ton equal how many crude oil barrels?
I am going on the assumption you mean "metric" ton. A standard ton is 2000 pounds. A metric Ton is 2205 pounds. 6-8 oil barrels equal a ton. assuming its 8 in this case, that is 250 lbs per barrel. That equals ALMOST 9 barrels of oil (8.82). If we assume is it 6 barrels per ton, than 2000 divided into 6 is 333.33. A metric ton (2205) divided into 333 equals 6.62. A bit over 6and a half barrels of crude oil in your metric ton.
How many barrels are there in one ton of naphtha?
8
How many liters is one ton of oil?
Well a barrel of oil weights about 500lbs full and that is 55 gallons of oil. (205L) so a Short ton (2000lbs) would be about 4 barrels so about 820L of oil
