Conversion Barrel per day to Gallon per minute(US)

To convert barrels per day to gallons per minute, you must multiply barrels per day by approximately 0.02917.

To convert barrels per day (BPD) to gallons per minute (GPM), follow these steps:

1. Convert barrels per day to gallons per day: Since 1 barrel is equal to 42 gallons, multiply the number of barrels by 42.

2. Convert gallons per day to gallons per minute: Since there are 1440 minutes in a day (24 hours x 60 minutes), divide the number of gallons per day by 1440.

Here's the formula:

$\text{GPM} = \frac{\text{BPD} \times 42 }{1440}$​

For example, if you have 100 barrels per day, the conversion to gallons per minute would be:

$\text{GPM} = \frac{100 \times 42 }{1440}= \frac{4200}{1440}\approx 2.92 \text{GPM}$

How many gallons per minute are 50 barrels per day?

To convert 50 barrels per day (BPD) to gallons per minute (GPM), you can follow these steps:

1. Convert barrels per day to gallons per day: Since 1 barrel is equal to 42 gallons, multiply the number of barrels by 42.

2. Convert gallons per day to gallons per minute: Since there are 1440 minutes in a day (24 hours x 60 minutes), divide the number of gallons per day by 1440.

Here's the calculation:

$\text{GPM} = \frac{50 \times 42 }{1440}$​

$\text{GPM} = \frac{2100}{1440}$​

GPM ≈ 1.46

So, 50 barrels per day is approximately 1.46 gallons per minute.

What is the difference between barrels per day and gallons per minute in terms of practical use?

Barrels per day (BPD) is used for measuring large-scale, long-term production rates, such as in the oil and gas industry, while gallons per minute (GPM) is used for real-time, short-term flow rate measurements, such as in plumbing and industrial processes.

Which is the larger unit, barrels per day or gallons per minute?

Barrels per day (BPD) and gallons per minute (GPM) measure different aspects of flow rates over different time scales, so they are not directly comparable as larger or smaller. However, in terms of the volume of fluid moved, one gallon per minute (GPM) results in a larger total volume over a day compared to one barrel per day (BPD), since:

1 GPM = 1440 gallons per day, whereas 1 BPD = 42 gallons per day.
