Portfolio overview
Independence Oilfield Chemicals Llc has been granted 10 US utility patents between 2018 and 2025, placing Independence Oilfield Chemicals Llc at rank #26,523 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 4 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 24.6 claims per patent with primary concentration in C09K (MATERIALS FOR MISCELLANEOUS APPLICATIONS, NOT PROVIDED FOR ELSEWHERE). As a US Corporation, Independence Oilfield Chemicals Llc is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Independence sits between Imricor Medical Systems, Inc. (10 patents, rank #26,519) and Infovista SAS (10 patents, rank #26,527) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 36.8/100 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. Between 2020 and 2025 the company received 9 grants, compared with 1 in the 2015–2019 window, a +800% shift in five-year velocity. An acceleration of this magnitude signals aggressive R&D investment and expanding technical ambition. 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. Independence Oilfield Chemicals Llc's 24.6 average claims per patent reflects complex, broadly scoped inventions that are difficult for competitors to design around, while specialization in 4 subclasses reflects a tightly scoped invention area. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Independence Oilfield Chemicals Llc against peers pursuing similar technology classes.
