Figures are based on 1995 average yields for U.S. refineries. One barrel contains 42 gallons of crude oil. The total volume of products made is 2.2 gallons greater than the original 42 gallons of crude oil. This represents "processing gain."

From each 42-gallon barrel of crude oil, about 19.6 gallons of gasoline and 9.2 gallons of diesel fuel are refined.
From each 42-gallon of crude oil, about 19.5 gallons of gasoline is produced.
Typically, about 9.21 gallons of diesel fuel are refined out of an industry-standard 42-gallon barrel of crude oil. (This equates to about 22% of the barrel for diesel).
There is 42 gallons of crude oil in a barrel. This oil is refined into several different products including gasoline, diese fuel, jet fuel, etc. Each 42-gallon barrel produces approximately 44.2 gallons of refined products. The approximately 5% increased represents a "processing gain." With that said, 52,000 gallons of diesel fuel would be produced from approximately 49,412 gallons of crude oil. The formula is: 42 gal crude oil yields 44.2 gal refined fuels 49412 gal crude oil yields 52000 gal diesel fuel crude oil * 1.05 = refined fuels where crude oil is X, X * 1.05 = 52000 X = 52000 / 1.05 X = 49412 gals of crude oil
This question can be answered in three ways. It takes 1851 gallons of water to refine a barrel of crude oil. One barrel of crude oil produces 19 gallons of gasoline and 10 gallons of diesel fuel, in this respect it takes 97 gallons of water to produce a gallon of gasoline. If you combine gasoline and diesel, it takes 63 gallons of water to produce a gallon of "fuel." A total of 42 gallons of petroleum products are produced from a barrel of crude oil, in this respect it takes 44 gallons of water to produce each gallon.
One barrel (42 gallons) of crude oil, when refined, yields approximately 19.6 gallons of finished motor gasoline. The remainder of the barrel yields distillate fuel oil, residual fuel oil, jet fuel, and other products.
1 barrel of oil (42 Gallons) will yield 19.5 gallons of Unleaded Fuel.
One barrel of crude oil produces about 9.21 US gallons of diesel fuel - equal to about 34.9 liters.
Many things can be made out of crude oil including synthetic textiles, plastics, fertilizers, bubblegum(!) , car gasoline (car petrol), diesel, jet fuel, heating oil, tar for roads etc.

A Barrel of Crude Oil contains 42 US Gallons (or 158.987 Litres) of Petroleum Products. This doesn't mean it contains 158.987 Litre of Petrol, Instead the quantity of Petrol (Gasoline) Derived from a Barrel of Crude oil is around 19½ Gallons. ---- Every 42-gallon (159-liter) barrel of oil can be refined into * 19.4 gallons (73 liters) of gas, * 10.5 gallons (40 liters) of diesel, and * 4.1 gallons (16 liters) of jet fuel (kerosene), not to mention lots of other marketable stuff. ---- Every 42-US-gallon barrel of crude provides a little more than 44 gallons of petroleum products. This is gained due to processing of crude. From one barrel we get (in gallons): * 7.27 gallons (27.5 liters): Other products (feedstocks for petrochemical plants, asphalt, bitumen, tar, etc.) * 1.72 gallons (6.5 liters): Liquefied Petroleum Gases (LPG) * 3.82 gallons (14.5 liters): Jet Fuel (kerosene) * 1.76 gallons (6.6 liters): Heavy Fuel Oil (Residual) * 1.75 gallons (6.6 liters): Other Distillates (Heating Oil) * 9.21 gallons (35 liters): Diesel * 19.15 gallons (72.5 liters): Gasoline From petrochemical feedstocks many everyday-life products are then obtained. Some examples are: * fertilizers for agriculture * plastic toys and gadgets (bags, computer cases, etc.) * bubble gums * car tires * perfumes * petroleum jelly * ammonia * washing liquids
