A must visit for any oil & gas enthusiasts. It has got 2 sets of 3 D movies to showcase "formation of Oil & Gas" and "deep sea diver experience". Very informative and interactive

Well laid out and interesting. Follows from oil formation to the rigs plus Norway's 1trillion krone investment fund and how it is invested Well worth a visit.

Went to this restaurant for an evening meal, pre-booked as it can get very busy...which it did. even though the restaurant was almost full the staff were relaxed but still professional. Had a lovely meal and before we knew it a few hours had slipped past. Just a lovely location and looking out to the sea was great.

We hung outside whilst the children (aged 12 and 10yrs) played on the playground outside which is constructed from recycled oil rig and gas platform items. Norway's oil industry has taken off since 1973. It's sounds a really boring museum, but, the Norwegians made this very interesting.

Very informative about the oil industry in Norway. Yeah, seems like a dry topic but this museum makes it very interesting. Worth... More

This oil museum is very interactive and well worth a visit, even if you are not a museum person! A funny 3D movie explains the creation of oil and the museum offers info on exploration and production on the Norwegian Continental Shelf and how it has changed the life of the people in Norway. Many interesting objects on display, donated... More

I recently attended a conference at the Norwegian Petroleum Museum, and despite having lived there most of my life I had never been. It's a great place to get an insight to the oil history how it was discovered, used and so on. There are some real fun bits like old technology, videos and so on. It's real educational for... More

I really enjoyed my trip to the oil museum, however being science minded perhaps that's the main reason why! Plenty of interactive things to look at and take part in. Including trying on offshore survival suits.
