What this shows Orano's Innovation Score is 35.5/100 (top 49% of the PatentsView-derived corpus). The chart places that score against the nearest Innovation Score peers plus corpus poles, not a reprint of the volume ranking.

Does more volume mean deeper claims for Orano?

Each dot is one of Orano’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). Orano’s own 15.0 claims/patent is at or below the 16.4 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where Orano's grants concentrate

Orano MED is a focused PatentsView assignee: 7 CPC subclasses with 85.7% of grants classified under G21G (Conversion OF Chemical ELEMENTS; Radioactive Sources). Peak complete grant year is 2024 (2 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2018. By volume, Orano sits between Opton Co. Ltd. and Orion Engineered Carbons GMBH.

Orano's three-year grant acceleration

Orano MED shows 3 grants in 2022–2024 against only 2 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.
