Oil with API greater than 30 is termed light between 22 and 30, medium below 22, heavy and below 10, extra heavy.Ěsphalt on average has an API gravity of 8°, Brent Crude of 35.5°, and gasoline of 50°.ěrent Crude has an API gravity of approximately 35-38 which is equivalent to a specific gravity of 0.835. The heavier the oil, the lower the API value is and vice versa. API gravity is an inverse measure of a petroleum liquid's density relative to that of water. deg API ( deg API ) API is a measure of how heavy or light a petroleum liquid is compared to water: if its API gravity is greater than 10, it is lighter and floats on water if less than 10, it is heavier and sinks.g/cm³ - g/cc ( Gram per cubic centimeter ) Fluid gradient range at reservoir conditions in g/cm³:.The ranges of fluid gradients at reservoir conditions are summerized in the 'info' buttons: ▶ Convertor of the most common units of 'Density & Fluid gradients' in the oil industry. 1/64th of inch ( 1/64th of an inch ) This unit is used to express the size of chokes or bean sizes.It is a non-SI unit accepted for use with the SI, and rounded to an even number of meters for its continued use in both air and marine navigation, and for the definition of territorial waters.

Historically, it was defined as one minute of latitude, which is equivalent to one sixtieth of a degree of latitude. Nautical mile ( Nautical mile NM - shipping mile ) A nautical mile is a unit of measurement defined as 1,852 meters.Mile ( Land mile - Statute mile - SM ) Mile is an English unit of length of linear measure equal to 5,280 feet, or 1,760 yards, and standardized as exactly 1,609.344 meters by international agreement in 1959.It is by international agreement in 1959 standardized as exactly 0.9144 meters. Yard ( yd ) Yard is an English unit of length, in both the British imperial and US customary systems of measurement, that comprises 3 feet or 36 inches.In both systems, the foot comprises 12 inches and three feet equal a yard. Since 1959, both units have been defined by international agreement as equivalent to 0.3048 meters exactly. ft ( Feet ) Foot is a unit of length in the imperial and US customary systems of measurement.It is now formally equal to 1⁄36 yard but usually understood as 1⁄12 of a foot. in ( Inch ) Inch is a unit of length in the British-imperial and United States customary systems of measurement.km ( Kilometer ) Kilometer is a unit of length in the metric system, equal to one thousand meters.m ( Meter ) Meter is the base unit of length in the International System of Units SI.cm ( Centimeter ) Centimeter is a unit of length in the metric system, equal to one hundredth of a meter.mm ( Millimeter ) Millimeter is a unit of length in the metric system, equal to one thousandth of a meter or one tenth of a centimeter.
