Environmental Education
Through interactive technology, visitors can experience the presence of petroleum deep in the stratum for millions of years as well as the wonderful way to use oil, including oil exploration, refining, transportation, and applications. In addition, visitors can learn about the past and present of petroleum and sustainable new energy sources while personally experiencing thousands of possible applications of petroleum in various scenarios, such as gas stations, families, streets, supermarkets, and laboratories. Visitors can also witness the gradual transformation of the black gold from germination to an oil energy giant. Filled with knowledge, the immersive five-sensory experience of the development of new energy sources is suitable for not only education visits from schools, but also parent-child tours.
"CPC Kaohsiung Refinery Environmental Education Park" uses the remnants of the factory demolition site, business area and Banpingshan green space after the closure of the Kaohsiung Refinery as an environmental education site, and was certified in 2018, and was notified of qualification in 2021. . The core concept of the park curriculum focuses on energy management of oil refining and petrochemicals, combined with the history and culture from Japan's Sixth Naval Fuel Plant and the natural ecology of Banping Mountain, to develop and extend the curriculum module for adults - Rebirth, including 3 lesson plans- "Born with oil", "The sky is high and the earth is not thick", and "The source is endless". The course design allows students to experience the beauty of natural ecology in this field, and at the same time learn about the history of Taiwan's economic development and environmental protection, understand the meaning of environmental justice and environmental sustainability, and be aware of changes in the earth's environment, limited fossil energy and limestone minerals. Students can practice simple living, green consumption and energy saving in life, and take concrete actions to cherish and maintain the earth's resources.
Located in the Chuhuangkeng area of Kaigong, Gongguan Township, Miaoli County, this place is where the first sighting of oil took place in Taiwan. It is also the oldest oil field remaining in production in the world. In order to record the history of the oil field from exploration to production, the exhibition contained the history and evolution of oil exploration in Taiwan through precious documents and historical materials and relics. CPC established the Oil Field Exhibition Hall in 1981, which was rebuilt and renamed "Taiwan Oil Field Exhibition Hall" in 1990.
Having been granted certification for environmental education facilities in 2017, the exhibition hall is divided into seven exhibition areas based on various themes, including "Taiwan Oil Field and Chuhuangkeng," "Oil and Gas Generation and Exploration," "Oil and Gas Drilling, Production and Processing," "Oil and Gas Pipelines," "Offshore and Overseas Exploration," "Sustainable Development," and "Chuhuangkeng Local Scenery," VR tour brings visitors back to Chuhuangkeng in the 1960s. Introducing how oil is drilled and gathered through interactive multimedia, while showing CPC's history in oil exploration. In addition to being an edutainment and recreational place for the public, the exhibition hall also houses remnants of the Chuhuangkeng area.
The integration of the old and the new in the preservation of cultural assets and the transformation and activation of the land in the factory area is a very challenging topic. Therefore, CPC led the state-owned enterprise to set up a special department for the preservation of cultural assets. In addition to planning to collect and publish relevant historical books, it also actively promotes the reuse of cultural assets and buildings in accordance with the provisions of the Cultural Assets Law and hopes to introduce diversified industries to give new life to cultural assets.
