About Daqing Oilfield History Museum

Daqing Oilfield History Museum occupies the former Number Two Courtyard associated with the petroleum development campaign headquarters. The historic premises are part of the subject: the exhibition explains how the oilfield developed while placing visitors in a setting connected with its organisation and work.

The museum opened in 2006 and presents the history of the Daqing oilfield through its institutional narrative and collections. The relationship between the retained buildings and the exhibition is especially useful for understanding the site. This is a different venue from the Iron Man Wang Jinxi Memorial Museum and from museums primarily devoted to petroleum science.

Begin by identifying which parts of the premises belong to the historic headquarters, then follow the exhibition’s chronology. Compare the evidence used to explain exploration and development with the way the museum presents the people involved. Keeping the original site, historical record and later commemorative display distinct gives a clearer reading of an industrial heritage destination.

What to look for

  • Recognise the former headquarters courtyard as part of the exhibit.
  • Follow the chronology of Daqing oilfield development.
  • Compare historic premises with later museum interpretation.
