HELIUM

Helium is a noble gas and the smallest of all known elements, the second lightest and has the lowest boiling point. This combination

  • f characteristics places helium as a unique commodity with

numerous applications. It also does not react to other elements or chemicals, making it the only gas that can be used to purge the liquid engines of super colliders and rockets. As helium is lighter than air, it is actively being lost into space. However, helium is also actively being created via the decay of naturally occurring radioactive elements in rocks over time. This is the setting for the American Helium project, where the released helium has accumulated in porous geological formations such as sandstone. As a high-value product, liquid helium can be transported to reserves and processing facilities via containers mounted onto trucks with no pipelines being necessary.

MARKET

A strategic market currently dominated by the USA

Current global demand estimated to be over 6 bcf per annum, and to be worth over US$ 6 billion. USA is the largest producer with a 55% share in 2016, followed by Qatar with 32%, and Algeria, Australia, Russia, Poland and Canada also contributing smaller shares. Recent known reserves for Helium producing countries are 137.73 bcf for USA, 63.57 bcf for Algeria and 60.03 bcf for Russia. He

HELIUM PRODUCTION

Concentration of production among a handful

  • f countries will continue to be the leading

driver of uncertainty of supply and volatility

As long as the helium market is driven by only a handful of countries, it will continue to be at the whim of domestic and international politics, and volatile. The Bureau of Land Management’s current auctioning of helium reserves which is expected to continue until 2020 until depleted (save for a strategic stockpile of 3 bcf), will lead to a further drop in supply,

  • nce all the reserves have been sold.

Research analysts predict helium gas demand to grow at between 6.4% (IHT Markit) to 9% (Technavio) CAGR over the next decade, well above supply.
