The world has entered Helium Shortage 4.0!
You’ve probably heard about helium shortages for party balloons at US retail outlets like Party City — which, coincidentally, was forced to file for Chapter 11 Bankruptcy earlier this year.
Yet, party balloons are only a tiny, tiny fraction of what’s become a dire global helium shortfall in 2023.
You see, helium is critical to a wide range of applications that require extremely low-temperature environments (below minus 429 degrees F) that are only attainable at the frigid temperatures delivered by liquid helium.
Hospitals — which utilize liquid helium to cool superconductive magnets in MRI machines — make up about a third of global helium demand.
Helium is also in heightened demand across the aerospace, tech, automobile, and Weather Service sectors.
According to the gas industry, the world is presently in the grip of “Helium Shortage 4.0” which can be blamed on declining and unreliable production from existing sources, including Russia and right here in the United States.
It’s the fourth time in just two decades the world has found itself facing an untenable helium shortfall.
As supply continues to be constrained, helium demand is only going UP as new applications are being developed across those aforementioned multi-$billion sectors.
As a result, industry analysts expect the growing supply/demand imbalance to support higher helium prices and demand growth through 2028 where the market could balloon — no pun intended — to US$6.5 billion.
Already, helium prices in many markets have doubled since January 2022 with contract prices increasing by 50% to 100% in some cases.
Numerous helium-focused investment opportunities are popping up as a result, including right here in the United States.
That’s because the US, by far, has the world’s largest reserves of helium at an estimated 8.5 billion cubic meters.
