A barrel is a volumetric measure and a tonne is a mass measure so the barrels per tonne will vary depending on the density of the oil. Some examples from an old oil company diary I have are:
Iran Heavy 7.23 barrels per metric tonne
Libya Brega 7.64 barrels per metric tonne
Saudi Light 7.36 barrels per metric tonne
Alaska N Slope 7.04 barrels per metric tonne

there are 42 gallons in one oil bbl, each gallon weighs about 8.5 #s go figure the math for a ton and shipboard tonnes are differant than a dry ton

Depends on the density of the oil. This varies depending on where the oil is extracted.

you mean one tonne? Depends on size of the barrel.

Oil is measured in gallons, not ton's, as it is a liquid.

62,500 tonnes = 438,000 barrels.
You can do the division.
