Gunnar Lllp

Gunnar Lllp is the legal entity associated with Gunnar Energy Services, a private company founded in 2019 by Clinton Moss. Gunnar Energy Services specializes in providing wellbore positioning, magnetic ranging technology, and relief well services to the global energy sector. The company's headquarters are located at 2202 Zeus Court, Bakersfield, California, 93308, with additional offices in Los Angeles, Houston, and Calgary.

Gunnar Energy Services offers a range of proprietary technologies, including DeadAhead™, EverReady™, Torped™, Deadset™, CTRWD, MaxWell™, TopGun™, and CleanCut™. Their services support diverse applications such as traditional oil and gas exploration and production, carbon capture, utilization and sequestration (CCUS), geothermal wellbore installation, solution mining (potash, lithium, uranium), and horizontal directional drilling for civil infrastructure. MaxWell™, for instance, is a service designed to increase the detectable range and accuracy of downhole casing for magnetic ranging.

Gunnar Lllp's patent litigation posture indicates it operates as a company defending its intellectual property. The company has one tracked case, appearing as a defendant and with no plaintiff cases. This single case is before the Patent Trial and Appeal Board (PTAB), suggesting a focus on defending patent validity rather than asserting infringement in district court.

The notable tracked case is Scientific Drilling International, Inc. v. Gunnar Lllp, filed at the PTAB in 2025. This case is particularly relevant given that Clinton Moss, Gunnar's founder, previously sold his company Marksman Ranging Technologies to Scientific Drilling. This context highlights a competitive landscape in magnetic ranging technology, with Gunnar Lllp holding patents, such as those for magnetic ranging while drilling and deep electromagnetic communication, listing Clinton Moss as an inventor.
