About John: Rusty Gilbert is President and owner of JR Gilbert Energy LLC after serving more than 40-years with Chevron and Gulf Oil. In his last assignment, served as General Manager of new Technology Deployment and Adoption in Chevron Technology Ventures (CTV), successfully leading the implementation and use of externally developed innovative technology solutions across Chevron operations.

In Pittsburgh, PA (2013-15), Rusty’s team applied new technology to unconventional plays which reduced cost and increased performance. A rotational assignment in Cabinda-Angola (2010-12) involved mentoring CABGOC national staff to become proficient earth scientists. While in Business Development (2008-10), he led a major effort to provide a geologic understanding and model the subsurface, delineate reserves, and identify optimal development scenarios in preparation for a significant bid round in southern Iraq.

Working out of TX & CA, held numerous leadership assignments in R&D which supported Chevron’s worldwide shale plays as well as provided subsurface support for major capital projects. Other leadership assignments include exploration, production and new ventures campaigns in Alaska, California, Washington, Texas, Namibia, and southeast Asia (China, Bangladesh, Thailand, India, etc.). These efforts led to wells being drilled with some resulting discoveries and commercial development.

Rusty has a BS degree, Honors, in geology from Rutgers University and a MS degree in geology from the University of Massachusetts in Amherst. Prior to graduate school he briefly worked in the environmental and water resource field. Outside of work, Rusty created the “Patriotic Colors” mobile app, which launched in 2018 with thousands of downloads on IOS & Android. The app offers patriotic overlays on new and existing photos accessible from your phone. He’s also developed an e-commerce site for numerous originally designed patriotic products.
