Working as a director of the refinery under construction he has made an enormous contribution to construction of new process units and putting them into operation.

A main feature of G.I. Gorechenkov was an exceptional insistence to himself and to his subordinates. Compliance with state and labor discipline were his basic working conditions.

An analysis of numerous documents shows that the director of the refinery is not put up with even the slightest manifestation of indiscipline, especially among management staff. So, for a failure to provide a timely payment of a salary, he dismissed the chief accountant Rogachev, approved for this position by the People's Committee of oil industry; for a delay of labor activity he reached the level of a major specialist, organizer and leader. And his first important public order and, at the same time, the test, GI Gorechenkov brilliantly passed.

His appointment as the director of the Novo-Kuibyshev Refinery under construction was a natural phenomenon.

The refinery , which several times is greater than our refinery on a capacity and a number of processing units, with a deeper processing of raw materials, was the flagship of the country's oil refining in the postwar years.

In 1955-1957 G. I. Gorechenkov worked as a chief of the Head department on construction of enterprises of oil industry of the Minnefteprom of the USSR. In 1957-1960 – he was a vice-chairman of the Omsk Council of a national economy of the RSFSR, the chief of the technical management of the Mingazprom.

In 1969-1973 - the member of the board, the chief of the head department on processing of gas of the Mingazprom.

In 1973 Gavriil Ivanovich retired, but then he again was invited to service in the Ministry of construction of oil and gas industry and he worked for a long time there. He built, particularly, objects of oil and gas industry in Tyumen region, Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Komi ASSR, Checheno-Ingush ASSR, in Iran and other countries.

A labor way of this person is noted by many government awards. For successful performance of the task of the Government on construction of the refinery №441 he was awarded the Order of Lenin by the Decree of Presidium of the Supreme Council of the USSR dated February 23, 1946.
