The IPRB was formed to provide public awareness and education programs and to
clean up abandoned well sites  throughout the state.  Funding for IPRB programs
comes from voluntary contributions of oil and natural gas producers and royalty
owners in Illinois.

The IPRB
Traveling Field Trip Exhibit is FREE to any school or special event in the
State. The Exhibit features working models of crude oil and natural gas equipment,
and graphical learning stations which students must “explore” to find energy
information. Students learn how oil and gas are formed, where and how it is found,
and how it is produced and refined.  Presentations can be tailored to students of all
ages, but our primary concentration is students between the 4th and 8th grades.

For more information on the IPRB and how we can visit your classrooms,
conferences, or special events, please call the Illinois Petroleum Resources Board
