The Ahmad Al-Jaber Oil & Gas Exhibition

The Ahmad Al-Jaber Oil & Gas Exhibition plays an important role for KOC by telling the history of oil, both in the State of Kuwait and throughout the world. From the formation of oil to its discovery and all of the ways that oil products help, make our lives better. The exhibition serves to answer any questions the public may have about oil and gas and the important functions they play in our modern lives.The original Display Center in Ahmadi has played a very important role in the history of Kuwait Oil Company. For decades, delegations from around the world were taken to the Display Center as part of their visit to KOC. In addition to being an excellent source of information for matters related to the oil industry, the original Display Center has been a source of great pride for the Company, for it is where the public could come to learn about the important role KOC plays for the State of Kuwait.

Al Qurain Martyrs Museum

The Al-Qurain Martyrs' Museum exists of three neighboring villas. On 24 February 1991, 19 young Kuwaiti men from the "Messila" resistance group had armed themselves and were preparing a strike against the invading Iraqi army. While the men were discussing their plan, an Iraqi patrol unit was in the area and eventually checked on one of the three houses in which the resistance group congregated. The two sides then engaged in a ten-hour battle. Heavily outnumbered and underarmed, the Kuwaiti men were eventually defeated by Iraqi tanks and soldiers. Of the nineteen men, seven were severely wounded and twelve died.

Interesting but not entirely sure it’s worth the price…

Enjoyed the oil and gas exhibit as I thought it was quite interesting. Seeing the amount of oil extracted per second in Kuwait was super cool. The Martyr Museum looked impressive from the outside, but sadly was already closed when we arrived. Thus, paid full price for only half a tour. :-/ Fine tour if you have some extra time or are really into Kuwaiti history of culture. Might be just as easy to rent a car and go yourself.

Highly recommend this tour. Both locations are accessible without a tour guide but having Waleed was useful. Particularly at the Al Qurain Museum where there is no guide and more limited information. Waleed was happy to share openly about life in Kuwait, including cultural differences, political and history. The Oil and Gas Exposition was very informative, excellently presented and speaks to the development of Kuwait as funded through Oil and Gas. There were interactive exhibits and an excellent video about the 600+ well set alight when Iraqi troops left the Kuwait at the end of the Gulf War (largest environmental disaster in history). In addition to the two sites, Waleed took me to the Kuwait Tours and would have taken me to the old market and museums had I not already seen these/ been a bit tired. I like this tour as an addition after you have explored a few of the more readily accessible sites (beach, towers, old souk). We finished with an excellent Persian dinner (not included in tour).
