Portfolio overview

Rowan Holding, Llc has been granted 11 US utility patents between 2017 and 2024, placing Rowan Holding, Llc at rank #25,096 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 21 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 25.9 claims per patent with primary concentration in E21B (EARTH OR ROCK DRILLING; OBTAINING OIL, GAS, WATER, SOLUBLE OR MELTABLE MATERIALS OR A SLURRY OF MINERALS FROM WELLS). As a US Corporation, Rowan Holding, Llc is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Rowan sits between Rio Brands, Llc (11 patents, rank #25,092) and S-OIL Corporation (11 patents, rank #25,100) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 44.2/100 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. Between 2020 and 2025 the company received 8 grants, compared with 3 in the 2015–2019 window, a +167% 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. Rowan Holding, Llc's 25.9 average claims per patent reflects complex, broadly scoped inventions that are difficult for competitors to design around, while a multi-domain presence across 21 subclasses balances depth with breadth. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Rowan Holding, Llc against peers pursuing similar technology classes.
