Oops ... mea culpa
An observant, and much wiser, reader just pointed out that my response to the original poster regarding the number of gallons (US) in his 13 m3 fuel tanks may be off by quite a bit. My calculation was based on marine bunker fuel being sold by the ton and a m3 is considered as 1 metric ton or somewhere around 310 gallons per ton for diesel or gas oil depending on gravity.
I was reminded that a simple conversion (which is probably what the poster was looking for) of 3.78 liters per gallon would give just over 3400 gallons as opposed to my figure of just over 4000 gallons.
If the poster ordered 500 gallons too much fuel I sincerely apologize!
