What are Barrel and Exaliter

Definition of Barrel

A barrel, often denoted as 'bbl', is a unit of volume used for measuring crude oil and other petroleum products. One standard barrel contains 42 US gallons or approximately 159 liters of liquid. This traditional unit has been widely adopted by the oil industry worldwide, with its usage dating back to the mid-19th century.

Definition of Exaliter

An exaliter (EL) is an immense unit of volume in the metric system, equal to one quintillion liters (10^18 liters). Typically used for measuring vast quantities of liquid in scientific contexts, the exaliter helps represent volumes at an astronomical or geological scale, though it's rarely used in everyday contexts due to its colossal size.
