Golden Driller Ornament

In Tulsa, Oklahoma, stands the colossal “Golden Driller,” a 76-foot tall statue dedicated to the petroleum industry workers. Once the largest free-standing statue in the world, this mighty figure symbolizes Oklahoma’s deep roots in oil production and the hard work of drillers. Located at the Tulsa Expo Center, it’s a fascinating and imposing roadside attraction that truly captures the industrial spirit and historical significance of the state’s oil boom.
