Portfolio overview

ExxonMobil Engineering & Technology Company has been granted 30 US utility patents between 2024 and 2025, placing ExxonMobil Engineering & Technology Company at rank #10,320 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 23 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 18.9 claims per patent with primary concentration in C08L (COMPOSITIONS OF MACROMOLECULAR COMPOUNDS). As a US Corporation, ExxonMobil Engineering & Technology Company is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. The composite Innovation Score of 60.2/100 blends portfolio volume, filing velocity, technology breadth, and claim depth into a single comparable measure drawn directly from USPTO PatentsView records.

Filing cadence tells the strategic story. Historical data spans 2024 through 2025, with 30 total grants over that period. Velocity comparisons require five years of historical filings to calibrate. The US Corporation classification further shapes interpretation, since corporate, government, and individual filers pursue patents for materially different reasons.

Claim depth and technology breadth together indicate competitive posture. ExxonMobil Engineering & Technology Company's 18.9 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while a multi-domain presence across 23 subclasses balances depth with breadth. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark ExxonMobil Engineering & Technology Company against peers pursuing similar technology classes.
