The Big Rig Tower & Tree Walk and Oil Patch Museum

Galleries, Museums and Collections

Join them at The Big Rig in Roma to discover the unique history of how and where the Australian oil and gas industry originated.

The Oil Patch enables you to experience the history of early rig sites and machinery and gain an understanding of today’s multi-billion dollar industry.

While Mum and Dad enjoy The Oil Patch, they challenge the youngsters to put on their hard hats, pick up a Oil Patch Challenge Timesheet and step into the Oil Patch for their chance to earn a share in the Mooga Oil Company.
