Miri is a Malaysian city on the northwest coast of the island of Borneo. At the Petroleum Museum, on Canada Hill, hands-on exhibits explore the region’s oil history. Outside is the Grand Old Lady, a 1910 oil well and local landmark. In the city center, vendors at Pasar Raya and Tamu Muhibbah markets offer fresh produce and handicrafts.

The local population in Miri has indeed started to extract oil from hand-dug wells for centuries. Historian found a documentation from the Song dynasty of China, mentioning the imports of Borneo petroleum in the 11th century.

On December 1910, oil was struck after 130 metres (430 ft) of drilling at the well. Since then, another 624 land wells have been drilled around Miri until 1972 which are collectively known as the "Miri field".

Miri grew as fast as the rate of oil production by the Shell company.

In 1920, roads were built in Miri. By 1921, there were 40 shop houses in Miri.

Eyeing on the oil fields, on 16 December 1941, the Japanese troops landed on Tanjung Lobang Beach, Miri without much resistance.

After the fall of Singapore on 15 January 1942, skilled workers that went into hiding with their equipment were sent back to Miri by the Japanese. They were immediately put to work for the Japanese oil supply.

After the war, the Oil exploration moved offshore,

In 1974, the formation of Malaysian oil and gas company Petronas led to co-operation between Petronas and Shell.

In 2005, Miri was upgraded to city status becoming Malaysia’s 10th city.
