Oman Oil and Gas Exhibition Centre

The Oman Oil and Gas Exhibition Centre is a museum in Al-Qurum that explains oil and gas extraction and processing through interactive displays. Visitors learn how these resources are found, transported, and refined through detailed exhibits and technical explanations.

The center was founded in 1995 by Petroleum Development Oman to document the nation's oil and gas operations. This opening represented an effort to record and share the industrial development that had transformed the country.

The center reflects how oil and gas have shaped the country's economic story and daily life for generations. Visitors encounter displays that connect industrial development directly to the nation's broader progress.

The center is located on Seih Al Maleh Street with regular hours and guided tours available from knowledgeable staff. Plan to spend time exploring the different exhibition sections to gain a full understanding of the displays.

The center houses the PDO Planetarium, opened in 2000, which pairs astronomical observations with information about energy resources. This unusual combination sets it apart as more than a standard industrial exhibition.
