Greg Goebertus, President
​
Greg is the senior consultant and president at Amerigo. Collectively, he has 12 years’ experience providing air quality compliance services ranging from hands-on field work to basin-wide air permitting strategies and emission inventories. After three years with a multi-national environmental consulting firm, Greg identified an opportunity to start Amerigo in 2012. Amerigo's consulting services evolved rapidly across oil plays in early years. Growth followed by subsequent industry downturns forced a renewed and matured focus on air quality compliance services.
Greg provides technical expertise and industry experience to help clients understand permitting mechanisms and compliance risks. He balances project-based work alongside business development. Based out of Austin, Amerigo is proud to support a loyal customer base doing important work for the environment and industry.
