Barrels of Banoco crude oil per metric ton
In the oil industry, quantities of crude oil are often measured in metric tons. Banoco 7.26 bbl per MT.
Banoco Sulfur: 2.45%
Sulfur is considered an undesirable contaminant because, when burned, it generates sulfur oxides.
As a general rule, a crude oil grade with high sulfur content will have a lower value. This type of crude is often referred to as a sour crude.

Banoco Specific gravity 0.867
Liquids with a density lower than water, which includes most crude oil grades and petroleum products, will have a specific gravity between 0.0 and 1.0.
