Gulf Oil's history — from its 1901 founding through the 1984 Chevron merger and the 1993 partnership that revived the Gulf brand.

Gulf Oil was an independent oil company from 1901 until 1984, when it merged with Standard Oil of California. Following the merger, Gulf service stations in the United States were rebranded as Chevron. However, the Gulf brand experienced a revival after a partnership formed in 1993 acquired the naming rights to Gulf Oil from Chevron in 1986. This complex partnership led to the reintroduction of the Gulf brand in the market.
