Overview
The Oklahoma Energy Resources Board (OERB) was founded in 1993 by the state legislature at the request of the oil and natural gas industry. Our leaders’ vision was to leverage the collective strength of the industry to restore land associated with historic well sites and help support educators across the state. Since that time, the OERB has cleaned more than 18,000 historic well sites at no cost to landowners and has provided millions of dollars of free classroom equipment. The OERB remains the gold-standard for voluntarily supported oil and natural gas programs in the nation.
