Specific Gravity = Density of Crude Oil (at 60°F) / Density of Water (at 60°F)
The density of water at 60°F is approximately 62.4 pounds per cubic foot (lb/ft³), or 1 gram per cubic centimeter (g/cm³).
Therefore, if you have the density of crude oil in lb/ft³ or g/cm³, you can calculate its specific gravity by dividing the density of crude oil by 62.4 (if the units are lb/ft³) or 1 (if the units are g/cm³).
Here's an example:
If the density of crude oil is 55.5 lb/ft³:
Specific Gravity = 55.5 lb/ft³ / 62.4 lb/ft³ = 0.889
So, the specific gravity of the crude oil is 0.889.
