Helium was first discovered by a Scottish scientist named Sir William Ramsay in 1895, as a of by-product during

natural gas and oil extraction. Though, helium is extensively available all over the universe, it is widely

distributed on Earth.

Apart from being a non-renewable resource, helium is mostly found in natural gas in its impure form and is

extracted during natural gas processing.

Moreover, helium is the only resource that cannot be solidified by sufficient cooling at normal atmospheric

pressure. Therefore, in order to convert it into gaseous form it is necessary to apply a pressure of 25

atmosphere (atm) at a temperature of −272 °C.

Objective: primary objective of the study of Global Helium Market, was to understand and gain insights about

the gaseous and liquid helium market size and it’s forecast in the global market during the forecast period.

Baseline Methodology :

For study, TechSci Research have gathered information through primary research surveys with 15 respondents

from 8 companies dealing either in production, refining or distribution of helium followed by counter validating

the information by analysing best available financial reports of these companies.

We also put through exhaustive search of credible paid databases such as, Hoovers, Factiva, Bloomberg etc.,

including our internal database. Our team of analysts have then prudently evaluated all the collected information

and personated them in chronological order to depict a meaningful and clear portrait of global helium market.

While compiling the data we have also crossed checked all the collected information from multiple sources and

data warehouses, so that we can present the most accurate and precise information of global helium market.

The team encountered a number of challenges during the span of the project such as, extracting data from the

market was difficult, as the information is beheld among leading players in the market. Moreover, language

barrier also posed a major hurdle in some countries, where English is not among the primarily spoken languages.

Moreover, detailed and in-depth scrutiny of information was done to understand every policy and external or internal

factor that could increase or decrease the consumption of helium across the globe in the coming years.

Approach & Sources : In order to forecast growth and market size of global helium market during the forecast

period, both top down and bottom up approach have been used. Moreover, multiple respondents from the

companies and distributors operating in global helium market have been interviewed through telephonic calls to

extract and verify the information, being collected at the source.

Helium Demand Set to Grow at CAGR 6.4% till 2021

Increasing penetration in healthcare, semi-conductors and optic fibres to drive global demand for helium.

According to a recently published TechSci Research report “Global Helium Market By Type, By Application, ByDistribution, By Region Competition Forecast & Opportunities, 2021”, global helium market is forecast toexhibita CAGR of 6.44% during 2016 - 2021, owing to rising demand for helium from sectors such as electronics,semiconductors & healthcare. Global helium production was dominated by the US, and the country accountedfor a production share of 62.41% in 2015. Discoveries of new sources of helium has further fuelled productionof helium, which is further anticipated to drive global helium market during the forecast period.

North America and Asia-Pacific dominated the global helium market in 2015, which is further anticipated to risein the coming years, owing to growing demand for helium from semiconductors sector, MRI & NMR sector andscience & research sector. Standing at an estimated USD4.1 trillion in 2015, semiconductors based electrical andelectronic products and systems market is the world’s largest commodities market as well as one of the majorend-users of helium. In 2015, Air Products & Chemicals Inc. was the largest player in the global helium market.However, Air Liquide completed the acquisition of Airgas in May 2016, which augmented its market share, andin the coming years the company’s market dominance is expected to further increase.

Gaseous helium dominated global helium market in 2015, and the segment is anticipated to maintain itsdominance during the forecast period, owing to growing use of gaseous helium in semiconductors, leakdetection and welding applications.“Global helium market is expected to grow during the forecast period, owingto stable price and rising availability across the world. Growing electronics sector in China, Japan and SouthKorea is further anticipated to propel demand for gaseous helium. Moreover, increasing use of helium in MRIand NMR scans, is further expected to drive global helium market through 2021.” said Mr. Karan Chechi,Research Director with TechSci Research, a research based global management consulting firm.
