Pilipinas Shell Opens Upgraded Malampaya Exhibit at The Mind Museum
My children have very inquisitive minds. They crave for science
just like I do and they won't stop asking questions until they are all
satisfied with the answers. But sometimes, the mother brain in me doesn't kick
in until coffee. So whenever their curiosity strikes, I feel like I am less of
a mom for not being able to satiate them. I remembered one time they asked
Boboy and I where did gas from gasoline stations come from. I told Boboy to
answer their question but of course, it wasn't detailed enough to satisfy
them.
Last Saturday, December 8, 2018, Pilipinas Shell opened the doors to its newly upgraded Malampaya Exhibit at The Mind Museum. The kids and I discovered how the power supply works in the Philippine--the fun and interactive way.
We downloaded the free app--Journey to Malampaya which is
available in both IOS and Google Play Store which guided our mini adventure at
the Mind Museum's Shell Malampaya Exhibit. We had an experimental walkthrough
to understand more deeply the journey of natural gas--watched how gas is
formed, extracted, and distributed from start to end before it powers up to 40%
of homes in Luzon.
The Malampaya Exhibit first opened to the public in March 2012.
Its goal is to inform museum visitors of the process of gathering,
transforming, and distributing natural gas, which is a less pollutive
alternative resource to coal and oil. The project showcases the engineering
feat conducted in the Malampaya project in Palawan to extract the 2.7 trillion
cubic feet of natural gas in the area.
Visit the Malampaya Exhibit at The Mind Museum to know more
about the innovative engineering feat that powers a good portion of the nation,
and discovers more about how human ingenuity harnesses natural gas to fuel our
daily lives.
