The Amusement Park - Tivoli Gardens - was developed in the mid 1800's and is the oldest Amusement Park in the World. Walt Disney fashioned his Disneyland from this park.
Phillips from USA found oil on a shelf in Norway on 12/23/69. They were looking since 1963. Most energy in Norway is wind and water.
Workers in oil work for 2 weeks and stay home for 4 weeks. 7% work directly in oil and 80% of the jobs are indirectly touched by oil production.
Norway pays for all Medical Care and Education through a Masters Degree for anyone, Norwegians and from other places. Taxes are 25-70% of income.
123 perished in oil accident and 89 survived. Since then many changes have taken place - better life jackets and life boats, and better physical entrance exams.
The pictures give some facts about the oil production. One picture shows the drill - how wide it is on top and how narrow it becomes closer to the oil source.
