What this shows Petromac's Innovation Score is 37.2/100 (top 44% 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 Petromac?

Each dot is one of Petromac’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). Petromac’s own 18.2 claims/patent is ABOVE the 14.0 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Petromac's grants concentrate

Petromac IP Limited is a focused PatentsView assignee: 4 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 2021 (6 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2018. By volume, Petromac sits between Owlstone Medical Limited and Packaging Corporation of America.

Petromac's three-year grant acceleration

Petromac IP Limited shows 9 grants in 2022–2024 against only 7 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.
