University of Stavanger Memory Bank
The University of Stavanger’s Memory Bank consists of notes from conversations with people who have shared their experiences and reflections about how the Alexander L. Kielland disaster has afflicted them. Using the link above you can search the Memory Bank.
The Norwegian Digital Archives have digitised large amounts of source materials such as board meeting minutes and yearly reports.
A good amound of photographs of the Kielland rig are available, from its construction, uprighting and finally scuttling. We have organized them in albums by theme.
