Close enough for horseshoes, I use 5.8 for NG to oil.

Here's my cheat sheet:

1 million cubic feet natural gas = ~.1724 barrel of oil = 1 million BTUs
5.8 million cubic feet natural gas = 1 barrel of oil = 5.8 million BTUs
1700 kilowatt hours of electricity = 1 barrel of oil = 5.8 million BTUs
1 million cubic feet natural gas = 293.1 kwh of electricity = 1 million BTUs
One ton of coal = ~4.14 barrels of oil = ~24 million BTUs
One ton of coal = ~24 million cubic feet natural gas = ~24 million BTUs
One ton of coal = ~7034 kilowatt hours of electricity = ~24 million BTUs

1 million cubic feet natural gas = 8.07 gallons of gasoline = 1 million BTUs
1 million cubic feet natural gas = ~7.21 gallons of diesel or heating oil = 1 million BTUs

1 million BTUs =

1 million cubic feet natural gas
~.1724 barrel of heavy or light crude oil, or 7.24 gallons
~293.1 kwh of electricity
~83.33 pounds of coal (one ton of coal = 24 million BTUs)
~8.07 gallons of gasoline
~7.21 gallons of diesel or heating oil

Note: coal numbers are highly variable depending on its quality.
