And you average about 18 to 22 gallons of gasoline from each barrel.

“One barrel of crude produces 42 U.S. gallons of gasoline.
One barrel of crude is 42 gallons of crude. “

Not only that, they calculate that $18 per ton can produce 63 gallons of gasoline at 28 cents per gallon. The problem is they fail to take into account processing, refining, distribution, or taxes. It’s magic!

And this is from the Global Petroleum Club. Let us hope it was just a careless mistake.
