About Gulf Gas Station Near Me:
From 1901 to 1985, Gulf Oil was the main global oil corporation. It was one of the supposed Seven Sisters oil corporations and was the 8th biggest American manufacturing business back in 1941 and the 9th biggest back in 1979.
Gulf was one of the Mellon family fortune’s key instruments before its merger with Standard Oil of California. Both Mellon Financial and Gulf had their headquarters based in Pittsburgh. The Gulf Building (at present, the Gulf Tower office condos) is the Art Deco skyscraper that served as the old headquarters of the business.
It was the tallest building in Pittsburgh until 1970 when it was surpassed by the United States Steel Tower, and it’s actually topped with a multi-story step pyramid structure. Until 1973, the whole top was lighted, changing color in response to disparities in barometric pressure and serving as the weather signal noticeable for miles.
When GOC (Gulf Oil Corporation) combined with SOCAL (Standard Oil of California) back in 1985, it ended to exist as a separate entity, with both businesses rebranding as Chevron in the US. Gulf Canada, Gulf’s main Canadian business, was sold to Ultramar and Petro-Canada in the same year, together with Gulf Canada Resources to Olympia and York.
The brand name Gulf, as well as a number of Gulf Oil Corporation’s constituent business units, survived. Since 1990, it has enjoyed a considerable resurgence, changing into a flexible network of related commercial interests based on agencies, franchises, and partnerships.

How to find Gulf stations near you
Start with the map at the top of this page. With location access enabled, it shows the Gulf stations nearest to you so you can pick the one with the shortest drive.
To narrow it down further:
- Check hours and services first. Tap a station on the map to see what’s listed. Gulf stations are independently operated, so one location might have a full convenience store while another is fuel-only.
- Search with your city or ZIP code. Typing “Gulf gas station” plus your city or ZIP into Google Maps works well when you’re planning ahead or you’re in an unfamiliar area.
- Look for the orange disc. Gulf’s orange-and-blue disc logo is distinctive. Once you’ve seen it, you’ll recognize Gulf stations quickly on busy roads.
What to expect at Gulf stations
The Gulf brand has been around for over a century, and since 1990 it has operated as a network of franchised and independently run stations. That history matters for one practical reason: Gulf stations can look and feel quite different from each other. There’s no single template every location follows.
What you can generally count on is standard-grade gasoline, and most locations have a convenience store for snacks and drinks. Beyond that, treat each station on its own merits — check photos and reviews for the specific location you’re considering, especially if you need something particular like diesel, a car wash, or air for your tires.
Tips before you go
- Expect variation. Two Gulf stations in the same town can have very different amenities. Don’t assume — check the listing.
- Look at recent photos. Map listing photos often show whether a station has diesel pumps, a car wash, or a larger store, which saves you a wasted trip.
- Read a couple of reviews. For independently operated stations, recent reviews are the best signal of cleanliness, pump condition, and service.
- Have a backup stop in mind. If you’re in an area with few stations, note a second option along your route in case the first one doesn’t have what you need.
Gulf FAQs
Is Gulf part of Chevron?
Gulf Oil merged with Standard Oil of California back in 1985, and the combined company became Chevron in the US. The Gulf brand name itself survived, though, and today it’s used by a separate network of franchised stations — so the Gulf station you visit isn’t a Chevron station.
Do all Gulf stations offer the same services?
No. Because stations are independently operated under the Gulf brand, fuel options, store size, and extra services like car washes vary by location. Always check the specific station.
Does Gulf sell diesel?
Some Gulf locations do, but it’s not guaranteed everywhere. If you need diesel, confirm with the station before driving over.
