Interesting developments regarding the ongoing deadlock on the Crude Helium Enrichment Unit (CHEU). In early November, Messer successfully petitioned the court to appoint a receiver to CRLP, the company operating the CHEU, paving the way for a potential resolution on its continued use. Air Products appealed this appointment and quickly followed up by filing an ‘emergency motion to supersede the receivership order’, asking the court to freeze the receiver during the appeal process. The trial court denied Air Products' motion, keeping the receiver in place. Nevertheless, a few days later, the Court of Appeals subsequently granted a temporary stay on the receiver's appointment, effectively suspending the receivership until further notice. Appellees, including Messer, have until December 6th to respond to the motion. More details are contained in our monthly newsfeed.

Potential shut down of >10% of global helium supply. There have been some fascinating further court submissions by Air Products and Messer in the tussle over the future of the helium processing facility at the former BLM Cliffside storage facility. We have trawled through the court documents and there are some key hearing dates coming up to watch, which we outline in our article. A potential shutdown could have a dramatic multi-year impact on the helium market. https://lnkd.in/eb43-K-j

EU Sanctions Are Reshaping the Global Helium Trade With new EU sanctions on Russia taking effect, significant shifts in the global helium market are underway. From the latest data out this week, major helium consumers like South Korea, as a named partner country to the EU sanctions, are already feeling the impact, while other nations appear to be benefiting from redirected supplies. This evolving dynamic could have long-term implications for the industry, particularly in helium pricing trends and influence semiconductor production.

🚀 Exciting Market Insights on Helium-3 and Helium-4! 🚀 We’ve recently completed detailed and differentiated market reports on both Helium-3 (³He) and Helium-4 (⁴He - the abundant and most well known form), and I wanted to share some highlights from our deep dive into Helium-3. Why is ³He so compelling? 🌍 Rarity: Helium-3 is an incredibly rare, non-radioactive isotope produced mainly from the decay of tritium, with limited production by the U.S., Russia, and Canada. Its unique properties—such as neutron absorption and an incredibly low boiling point—make it indispensable for scientific research. 🔬 Key Applications: From neutron detection for nuclear material monitoring to extremely low-temperature experiments, ³He is crucial. It’s also gaining attention for its future potential in quantum computing and fusion energy. 💰 Market Dynamics: With a price of around $2,500 per litre, the helium-3 market is small yet highly valuable (~$125M/year). The limited supply (~50,000 litres annually) makes it a highly sought-after resource, especially as research into lunar and underground sources gains momentum. ⚡ Future Prospects: Imagine a world where ³He powers fusion energy! A single 1 GW fusion plant could require 100 kg/year of ³He, a market potentially worth $1.4B annually. Stay ahead of the curve with our comprehensive analysis of this rapidly evolving market and get in touch for more details. #Helium3 #MarketReport #FusionEnergy #QuantumComputing #NeutronDetection #RareGases #Helium
