1 Metric Ton of Oil (ton) = 7.64 Barrels (bbl)
Note 1: 1 toe is the quantity of oil which has the equivalent energy content of 11.6 MWh of electricity. It is not the quantity of oil necessary to produce 11.6 MWh of electricity. The amount of oil consumed in producing 11.6 MWh of electrical energy may be more than three times as much due to the inefficiency of the conversion process. Note 2: A light flux of 668 Lumens is equivalent to an energy flow rate of 1 Watt of radiant electrical (or other) power. It is not the light flux produced by 1 Watt of electricity. An incandescent light bulb typically converts less than 10% of its input electrical energy into light. The rest is lost as heat See Energy Efficiency . Note 3: The power in MegaWatts of an electricity generating plant may be expressed as MWe or MWt (alternatively MWth). MWe is the more common and represents the electrical output power of the plant. MWt is the thermal input power developed by the furnace or nuclear reactor. The output power MWe is generally only about 30% or 40% of the input power MWt. Note 4: I Sievert = I Gray X Q where the quality factor (Q)is a measure of the magnitude of the damage done by the dose. The Gray is the dose, the Sievert is the effect of the dose. Similarly 1 rem = 1R X Q.
