Convert between common fossil fuels units
Approximate conversion values between some fossil fuels units are indicated
below:
- 1 US gallon gasoline = 115000 Btu (low heating value) = 121 MJ =
32 MJ/liter
- 1 boe (barell of oil equivalent) = 42 US gallons = 35 Imperial
Gallons = 159 liter = 6.1 GJ = 5.8 million Btu = 1700 kWh
- 1 metric tonne gasoline = 8.53 barrels = 1356 liter = 43.5 GJ
(low heating value)
- 1 US gallon diesel = 130500 Btu
- 1 liter diesel = 36.4 MJ (low heating value)
- 1 metric tonne coal = 27-30 GJ (bituminous/anthracite) = 15-19
GJ (lignite/sub-bituminous)
- 1 cubic feet natural gas = 930 Btu (low heating value)
- 1 cubic meter natural gas = 35 MJ (low heating value)
