Megaelectronvolt to barrel of oil equivalent converter (mev to boe)

Conversion Formula

1 mev = 2.62e-23 boe

Step-by-Step Explanation

1. Understand the base relationship:
   1 Megaelectronvolt = 1.60e-13 joules
   1 Barrel of Oil Equivalent = 6.12G joules
2. Establish the conversion factor:
   1 mev = (1.60e-13 J) / (6.12G J/boe) = 2.62e-23 boe
3. Apply the conversion:
   Multiply the value in mev by 2.62e-23 to get the equivalent in boe

Example Conversion

Convert 5 mev to boe:

5 mev × 2.62e-23 = 1.31e-22 boe
