Barrel (oil)
A barrel of oil (bbl) is a unit of volume used in the oil industry. It is defined as 42 US gallons, which is approximately 158.987 liters. The barrel is used to measure large quantities of crude oil and other petroleum products.
The barrel as a unit of measure for oil originated in the early days of the oil industry in the United States.

The use of the barrel as a unit of measure has continued to the present day, despite the adoption of the metric system in many other industries.

The US tablespoon has its origins in the imperial system and was historically used in both the British and American systems for measuring small volumes in the kitchen. In the U.S. customary system, the tablespoon was standardized to be 3 teaspoons, and its volume was defined as 14.787 milliliters. This standardization helped provide consistency in recipes and cooking instructions. Despite the global transition to the metric system, the US tablespoon continues to be widely used in the United States, particularly in culinary applications for measuring ingredients.
