What this shows Tougas's Innovation Score is 27.8/100 (25th percentile 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 Tougas?

Each dot is one of Tougas’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). Tougas’s own 14.0 claims/patent is at or below the 15.3 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where Tougas's grants concentrate

TouGas Oilfield Solutions GmbH is a focused PatentsView assignee: 8 CPC subclasses with 100% of grants classified under C09K (Materials FOR Miscellaneous Applications, NOT Provided FOR Elsewhere). Peak complete grant year is 2021 (2 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2015. By volume, Tougas sits between Topper Manufacturing Corporation and Toyko Electron Limited.

Tougas's three-year grant acceleration

TouGas Oilfield Solutions GmbH shows 1 grants in 2022–2024 against only 3 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.
