not sure if this helps, since it does not directly answer your question.

http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-4.8/qgraphicsscene.html

and simply use OpenGL Rendering.

The other way is to address the parent QWidget and set it's scroll bars

The QScrollArea (see Taamalus' response) is a good solution if you want to scroll a big widget that does not fit into the space you have. But if your QGLWidget does fit the space, and it should draw different contents depending on the value of the scrollbars (which I assume), you need something different.
If that is the case I recommend using QAbstractScrollArea. It is an abstract class, so you need to inherit from it and implement some functions. There is a description about what you need to implement and an example at http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-4.8/qabstractscrollarea.html#details .
