  Britain.tv Wikipedia - Ton
A dry ton or dry tonne has the same mass value, but the material (sludge, slurries, compost, and similar mixtures in which solid material is soaked with or suspended in water) has been dried to a relatively low, consistent moisture level (dry weight).
The water ton was formerly used in Great Britain and equal to 224 imperial gallons (the volume occupied by a mass of one long ton under the conditions which define the imperial gallon).
A ton of oil equivalent or tonne of oil equivalent (TOE), a conventional value of 10 Gcal (IT) = 41.868 GJ ≈ 10.0067 ton of TNT.

 Toe - Biocrawler   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
Toes are the digits of the foot of a human or animal.
In humans, the toe includes the phalanges of the foot's skeleton; the bones of each toe continue all the way to the heel, although in from the base of the toes they are united in the body of the foot.
The innermost toe (the leftmost one on the right foot, see picture) is by far the thickest (big toe, great toe, or hallux); the one on the other end is short and thin.

 Asia Times Online :: Japan News and Japanese Business and Economy
Oil prices are widely expected to hover in the range of $55-$60 a barrel through this year, not only because of structural factors of supply and demand but also because of concerns about the Middle East situation, insurgent attacks on oil facilities in Nigeria, and the standoff over Iran's nuclear program, among other things.
Another oil crisis similar to the two 1970s oil crises - the first in 1973 and the second in 1979 - would be a nightmare scenario for the country.
Oil export revenue of Saudi Arabia, the world's largest oil producer, is estimated to have hit a new record high of about $157 billion in 2005, up $51 billion from 2004.

 Palm Oil as a Fuel for Agricultural Diesel Engines
Vegetable oil is one of the alternatives which can be used as fuel in automotive engines either in the form of straight vegetable oil, or in the form of ethyl or methyl ester.
Results from the test of the engines fueled by diesel oil and refined palm oil indicate that the specific fuel consumption of the engine fueled by diesel oil is 14.2-19.0% less than that fueled by refined palm oil at the first hour of running.
Comparative tests of indirect injection agricultural engines fueled by diesel and refined palm oil and operating continuously at constant 75% maximum load and speed of 2,200 rpm indicate that for the first 1,000 hours of operation the specific fuel consumption of the engine fueled by refined palm oil is 15-20% higher.

 THE COASTAL COALITION: Proposal to Establish a United Nations Global Habitat Conservation Fund
The LWCF was established to receive about $900 million each year from federal Outer Continental Shelf (OCS) oil and gas leasing revenues, and is intended to allocate these funds to the purchase of protections for threatened habitat in the United States.
As a result of the extensive natural resource damage caused by the 1989 oil spill in Alaska, Exxon paid the federal government and State of Alaska $1 billion with which to conduct an environmental restoration program.
Similarly, a $1 per ton of oil-equivalent surcharge or tariff on global fossil fuel production would have raised in 1997 about $2.2 billion from coal, $3 billion from oil, and $2.2 billion from natural gas, for a total of $7.4 billion.

 THE ROLE OF WOOD ENERGY IN AFRICA
Carbonization Ratio (Tons Wood/1 Ton Charcoal) : 1 Ton of charcoal is derived from 6 CUM of Fuelwood according to FAO assumptions (which means 4.35 tons of wood for 1 ton of charcoal).
However, this estimate is not likely to be generalized for the case of Africa where the carbonization efficiency is substantially lower.
In fact, the Carbonization Ratio is rather ranging from 5 to 12.6 tons of wood for 1 ton of charcoal, according to different statistical sources consulted.

Its energy consumption is one ton of oil equivalent per $1000 of GNP, or twice the average for the rest of the world.
Through these gradual increases, pricing equivalent slightly higher than 100% of the LRMC was achieved by the outcome of 1996.
This is equivalent to an approximate 7% decrease in energy intensity from the current value of 1 TOE per US$1000 of GNP, a significant step in the right direction.

 RIGZONE - Statoil's Kvitebjorn Development Officially Inaugurated
Exploiting the high reservoir pressure saves energy and thereby reduces carbon dioxide emissions to an estimated level of roughly 15 kilograms per ton of oil equivalent.
This compares with a global average of more than 100 kilograms per ton for the oil and gas industry.
Applying high material standards on the platform also enhances safety, cuts maintenance requirements and gives an environmental gain by reducing the need for anti-corrosion chemicals.
