    Very informative about offshore drilling. Staff is very professional and very helpful. I would reccomend this place to be highly educational for everyone interested in how offshore drilling started and how it has been advanced over the years with high tech computers.

    Good museum to visit with your family or by yourself. Interactive and facilities are in good condition. I really liked the exhibitions that they have and they explain each thing in a very understandable way. You can go outside to the Derrick and see the tools and equipment. Right in the coast of Galveston and with a view to other offshore platforms.
    Would go again.

    Pretty neat you can walk all over the oil rig. The boys in the family liked it. It's also affordable and was nice to get out of the sun for a little bit. The lady in the ticket office was extremely friendly and they have water bottles for $1.

    Amazing place to visit! I gained a lot of new knowledge, I have a much better understanding and visual of what really goes down on the offshore rig sites and I have a much better appreciation for the oil industry. The equipment and models inside the museum are outstanding!! Definitely going back! If you or a loved one is in the oil field I HIGHLY recommend this place!!
