Visit Norwegian Petroleum Museum in Stavanger, a unique oil museum with an award-winning design dedicated especially to the oil industry in Norway!
The Norwegian Petroleum Museum is perfect for people of all ages and interests. The museum’s displays illustrate how offshore activities have grown to become Norway's most significant sector and provide you with hands-on experiences. Here, you can learn how oil and gas are created, where the resources are discovered, and how drilling and production processes are carried out.
Established in 1981, the oil museum is still one of Stavanger's most popular tourist spots in Stavanger, with people flooding in to learn about the core sector. Apart from various exhibitions and displays, the oil museum also offers an extensive range of activities for both kids and adults, as well as interactive activities and films.
You can also watch “Oilkid”, a film you may not expect to see at this sort of museum, an emotional short film about the business, doubts and faith, growing up and more. The museum also has a gift shop where you can browse and pick up souvenirs for friends and family.
Please maintain social distance while inside the museum. Sanitiser stations are placed all over, and you are encouraged to use them often.
