Portfolio overview

Instituto Mexicano Del Petróleo has been granted 132 US utility patents between 2015 and 2025, placing Instituto Mexicano Del Petróleo at rank #2,897 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 53 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 15.1 claims per patent with primary concentration in C10G (CRACKING HYDROCARBON OILS; PRODUCTION OF LIQUID HYDROCARBON MIXTURES, e.g. BY DESTRUCTIVE HYDROGENATION, OLIGOMERISATION, POLYMERISATION ; RECOVERY OF HYDROCARBON OILS FROM OIL-SHALE, OIL-SAND, OR GAS). As a Foreign Corporation, Instituto Mexicano Del Petróleo is one of the broader-portfolio assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Instituto sits between Everdisplay Optronics (shanghai) Co., Ltd (132 patents, rank #2,893) and Prince Mohammad BIN FAHD University (132 patents, rank #2,901) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 53.8/100 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 44 grants, compared with 88 in the 2015–2019 window, a -50% shift in five-year velocity. A cooling filing rate may reflect portfolio consolidation, shifting priorities, or reduced R&D throughput. The Foreign 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. Instituto Mexicano Del Petróleo's 15.1 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while a multi-domain presence across 53 subclasses balances depth with breadth. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Instituto Mexicano Del Petróleo against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

Check what the four-part Innovation Score actually rewards before comparing it to another company. How the score works

Patent counts and the Innovation Score measure patenting activity, not commercial success or the legal strength of any patent. Many patents are filed defensively. Verify the status of an individual patent against official USPTO records.
