Rank Ordered Listing of Technology Classes Receiving 1 or More Utility Patents During the Period
Originating From

SAUDI ARABIA

( patent origin is determined by the residence of the first-named inventor )
( technology class is determined by the primary classification assigned to a patent- see 'Explanation of Data' )
( some classes have been combined together under a single class identifier )

The following table displays technology classes and counts of utility patents classified in them; patents are distributed either by year of patent grant or by year of patent application.
