Does more volume mean deeper claims for Petrolink?
Each dot is one of Petrolink’s 8 nearest volume peers (same corpus rank neighbourhood as the chart above), placed by total granted patents (horizontal) against average claims per patent (vertical). Petrolink’s own 19.9 claims/patent is ABOVE the 14.4 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.
Where Petrolink's grants concentrate
Petrolink International Ltd. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 5 CPC subclasses with 100% of grants classified under E21B (Earth OR Rock DRILLING; Obtaining OIL, GAS, Water, Soluble OR Meltable Materials OR A Slurry OF Minerals From Wells). Peak complete grant year is 2019 (4 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2015. By volume, Petrolink sits between Paul Kristen, Inc. and Pictech Management Limited.
Petrolink's three-year grant acceleration
Petrolink International Ltd. shows 6 grants in 2022–2024 against only 11 in 2019–2021. That prior window is too thin for a growth multiple (rename and spin-out assignees look artificially high when the baseline is near zero), so PlainPatent withholds a ranked acceleration claim here.
