This is one of the best museums in the country. It’s split into eight sections covering all you ever wanted to know about oil and the Saudi oil industry. Educational and informative, this will entertain kids and adults alike (there are loads of buttons to push, interactive displays and fun activities). A viewing of the 17-minute long film ‘Energy to the World’ can be organised by prior arrangement (though be prepared as it’s mostly toe-curling Aramco propaganda) as can guided tours (one to 1½ hours). English-, French- and German-speaking guides are free.
