The invention discloses a petroleum workover operation robot. The petroleum workover operation robot comprises a base device, a righting guiding device, a large arm device, a pendulum seat transmission device, a length measuring device and a hydraulic control system. The hydraulic control system controls the base device, the righting guiding device, the large arm device, the pendulum seat transmission device and the length measuring device to act. Compared with a petroleum workover operation robot in the prior art, the structure is more compact, reasonable and reliable, and the problems that the on-site manual labor intensity is high, the workover efficiency is low, energy consumption is high, and environment pollution is easily caused are solved; and automation of workover operation is achieved. The petroleum workover operation robot is small in occupied area, flexible in wellhead tossing and high in automation degree, and the workover efficiency is greatly improved.
