Means expressing the density of a petroleum Oil at 60 degress Fahrenheit. It is based on an arbitrary hydromenter scale. This scale is generally used in the US.
What is API Gravity
100
An empirical definition of the color ofa clear petroleum liquid based on a scale of -16 (Darkest) to +30 (lightest). The number is derived by finding the height of a column of the sample that, when viewed through the length of the column, visually matches the appropriate once of three glass standards, and referring to table 1 of ASTM Test D 156
