Foreword
The International Organization of Legal Metrology (OIML) is a worldwide, intergovernmental organization whose primary aim is to harmonize the regulations and metrological controls applied by the national metrological services, or related organizations, of its Member States. The two main categories of OIML publications are: International Recommendations (OIML R), which are model regulations that establish the metrological characteristics required of certain measuring instruments and which specify methods and equipment for checking their conformity; the OIML Member States shall implement these Recommendations to the greatest possible extent; International Documents (OIML D), which are informative in nature and intended to improve the work of the metrological services.
Cooperative agreements are established between OIML and certain institutions, such as ISO and IEC, with the objective of avoiding contradictory requirements; consequently, manufacturers and users of measuring instruments, test laboratories, etc. may apply simultaneously OIML publications and those of other institutions. International Recommendations and International Documents are published in French (F) and English (E) and are subject to periodic revision. This publication reference OIML R 63, edition 1994 (E) was developped by the OIML technical committee TC 8 Measurement of quantities of fluids. It was approved for final publication by the International Committee of Legal Metrology in 1993 and will be submitted to the International Conference of Legal Metrology in 1996 for formal sanction. It supersedes the previous edition dated 1985. OIML publications may be Organizations headquarters: obtained from the
OIML Draft Recommendations and Documents are developed by technical committees or subcommittees which are formed by the Member States. Certain international and regional institutions also participate on a consultation basis.

INTRODUCTION
In 1982 and in 1991 respectively, the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) published the two parts of its revised Standard 91 Petroleum measurement tables, Part 1: Tables based on reference temperatures of 15 !C and 60 !F and Part 2: Tables based on a reference temperature of 20 !C. This Standard, developed by ISO/TC 28, replaces the tables referred to in the previous edition of ISO R 91, developed during the late 1940s and based on data for crude petroleum and petroleum fractions published in 1916. Some later data on natural gasolines reported in 1942 were also used. The tables referred to in ISO 91-1 were developed jointly by the American Petroleum Institute (USA), the American Society for Testing and Materials (USA) and the Institute of Petroleum (United Kingdom). The tables were prepared by the American Petroleum Institute following the development of a new data base by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (USA). The tables referred to in ISO 91-2 are obtainable through computer implementation procedures prepared by the Institute of Petroleum. The measurement tables 1 to 58 referenced in Annex A.1 have been published by the American Petroleum Institute and the American Society for Testing and Materials and consist of 12 volumes. The computer implementation procedures designated by tables 59 and 60 referenced in Annex A.2 have been published by the Institute of Petroleum.
Scope This Recommendation covers petroleum measurement tables used by Administrative Services such as Customs for official determination of quantities of petroleum and its products, under reference conditions, starting from measurements of volume or mass, temperature, density, etc.
Reference temperature The reference temperature at which volumes are expressed is 15 !C. However, other reference temperatures (for example, 20 !C or 60 !F) may be used if required by national regulations.
Recommended petroleum tables OIML Member States are requested to use the petroleum measurement tables: ! Nos. 1 to 58 referred to in the ISO Standard 91-1:1982, and ! Nos. 59 and 60 referred to in ISO Standard 91-2:1991, the list of which is given in Annex A and mainly tables Nos. 53A, 53B, 54A, 54B, 54C, which are based on the reference temperature of 15 !C.
Information concerning availability of tables All volumes referenced in Annex A.1 (tables Nos. 1 to 58) may be purchased from the publishers, the American Petroleum Institute, c/o Publication and Distribution Section, 2101 L Street, NW, Washington, DC 20037, USA, or from the American Society for Testing and Materials, 1916 Race Street, Philadelphia, PA 19103, USA. Other suppliers include American Technical Publishers Ltd., 68a Wilbury Way, Hitchin, Herts SG4 OTP, England. The tables are also available on microfiche and the computer sub-routine as magnetic tape or as FORTRAN card decks from the American Petroleum Institute. The Petroleum measurement paper No.3: Computer implementation procedures for correcting densities and volumes to 20 !C referenced in Annex A.2 may be purchased from the publishers, The Institute of Petroleum, 61 New Cavendish Street, London W1M 8AR, United Kingdom.
