permission denied on a file I own??

What's up with this?
I'm logged on as user 'oracle'.
User 'oracle' owns the directory OPatch, which has full permissions for the owner.
Yet, when I try to rename (mv) it, I get 'permission denied'.

oracle:+ASM$ ls -ld OP*
drwxr-xr-x 8 oracle oinstall 4096 Jul 24 14:15 OPatch

oracle:+ASM$ mv OPatch OPatch.old
mv: cannot move `OPatch' to `OPatch.old': Permission denied

oracle:+ASM$ id
uid=54321(oracle) gid=54321(oinstall) groups=54321(oinstall),54322(dba)

oracle:+ASM$
