API Gravity
The gravity (weight per unit volume) of crude oil or other related liquids as measured by a system recommended by the American Petroleum Institute. API Gravity is expressed in degrees, a specific gravity of 1.00 being equivalent to 10 API. API gravity is related to specific gravity (SG) by the following formula: API Gravity = (141.5 /Specific Gravity) - 131.5.
