Displays of tools, films, models, and other exhibits provide insight into the history, geology, and technology behind the oil industry. See how oil is produced and what it is used for, as well as the influence the industry has had on the Norwegian economy. The museum also includes information on the downsides of oil production, such as production disasters and environmental effects. Notice the unusual architecture of the museum, which from afar resembles an oil platform.

My third visit here, last time 4-5 years ago. I really appreciate some of improvements, like dinosaurs, to make it more interesting also for kids. Absolutely MUST SEE, when You visit Stavanger!

Really interesting museum and actually one reason I wanted to visit Stavanger. Some information would need updating and would be interesting to read about how Norwegian oil industry has been shown in popular culture like in Lykkeland. Sadly some of the activities where still closed due to the corona.
