Adam Gilmore

Petroleum Service Corporation
Senior Vice President of Operations

“My favorite part of this company is that it maintains a small company feel despite having a big company footprint. As someone who has worked in disparate industries, the servant leadership values and family-oriented culture at PSC is unlike anything I’ve ever seen.”

Adam joined PSC in June 2014 as the Vice President of Operational Excellence, after a 17-year career with NASA in Houston, Texas. During his time with NASA, Adam progressed through a variety of engineering and management positions, playing a key role in developing commercial spaceflight capability for the Los Angeles-based SpaceX program.

In early 2019, Adam was promoted to Senior Vice President of Operations, with responsibility for managing our plant and marine operations company-wide. He is also responsible for developing and maintaining an organization-wide culture of continuous improvement, through incident and risk management, operational training, and safety initiatives.

A native of Ohio, Adam received a bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering from Purdue University and a master’s degree in Mechanical Engineering from Rice University. He also holds an MBA from Rice University. Adam and his wife Sabrina live in Houston with their four children.
