Converting from Barrel of oil equivalent (boe) to Erg (erg) | Energy

What is Barrel of oil equivalent (boe)

Barrel of oil equivalent (boe) is a unit of energy that represents the amount of energy contained in one barrel of crude oil. It is commonly used to compare different forms of energy on a consistent basis.

What is Erg (erg)

The erg (erg) is a unit of energy in the CGS (centimeter-gram-second) system. It is a very small unit of energy, equal to 10^-7 joules. Erg is often used in physics and scientific calculations.

Conversion Formulas

The conversion formulas between boe and erg are as follows:

• 1boe=6.119348×1016erg

• 1erg=1.634161×10−16boe

Examples

1. Converting from boe to erg:

   • 10 boe = 6.119348 x 10^17 erg
   • 14 boe = 8.567087 x 10^17 erg
   • 7 boe = 4.283544 x 10^17 erg

2. Converting from erg to boe:

   • 10 erg = 1.634161 x 10^-15 boe
   • 14 erg = 2.287825 x 10^-15 boe
   • 7 erg = 1.143913 x 10^-15 boe
