Preserving Our Past...
Knowing our heritage as oilfield workers gives a sense of pride to what we do every day.A trip to any of these great oilfield museums is sure to inspire you. Looking into the past at the equipment and the men that got the job done gives a sense of pride knowing that no matter how difficult the job is today,it is nothing compared to what men had to endure in the past. I have provided information to oilfield museums around the world.i hope someday all of you can visit one
