Every December the School of Engineering recognizes its Distinguished Graduates; these are alumni who have
successful professional careers and have shown a strong commitment to education and public service. This award
is the highest honor that the School awards to its graduates. We are proud to announce that one of our
Petroleum Engineering graduates, Richard W. Moncrief was so honored on December 6, 2008.
A 1965 graduate of the University, Richard is a third generation principal in Moncrief Oil, a family owned exploration and production company with headquarters
in Fort Worth, Texas. Continuing to work with his father W.A. “Tex” Moncrief, and his brothers in the domestic oil business, Richard went on to found Moncrief
Oil International, Inc. in 1970 and has established oil production in major fields in the Middle East and in Eastern Europe. Richard Moncrief is a member of the
board of trustees for the Amon Carter Museum, Ft. Worth's world-renowned American art collection; the William A. and Elizabeth B. Moncrief Foundation, and The
University of Texas Development Board. Congratulations.
