The honor, recognizing a person who has had an extraordinary impact on the energy industry, will be celebrated at Oil and Gas Investor's 25 Influential Women In Energy gala luncheon Feb. 6 in Houston.

"Dr. Graves' lifetime of achievements - as a leader, teacher and scholar - make her our first choice for this honor," said Rich Eichler, CEO of Hart Energy, a media and information company for the global energy industry and publisher of Oil and Gas Investor.

Her rigorous approach to her field and her commitment to first-class scholarship have raised the standards of her students as individuals and of the industry as a whole."

Graves, a Mines alumna, was the second woman in the nation to earn a doctorate in petroleum engineering. In 2017, the Society of Petroleum Engineers honored her with the International Distinguished Achievement Award for Petroleum Engineering Faculty.

Co-director of the Center For Earth Materials, Mechanics, and Characterization (CEMMC), Graves' primary research is in the area of reservoir characterization and laser/rock interaction.
