Black Diamond Museum: Washington’s Oil and Gas Reserves

Did you know that despite our reputation for hydro and wind, Washington State has a fascinating—and often overlooked—history with oil and natural gas? Join us for an eye-opening presentation on the hidden geology of the Pacific Northwest. We’ll dive into: 1) The “wildcatting” history of early explorers. 2) Why our unique geology makes finding oil so difficult. 3) The science behind the natural gas reserves we do have. Whether you’re a geology buff or just curious about what lies beneath your feet, this is definitely a story you haven’t heard before!
