Bulk Helium Market Analysis
The global bulk helium market size reached US$ 6.4 Million Tons in 2023. By 2032, IMARC Group expects the market to reach US$ 11.1 Million Tons, at a projected CAGR of 6.40% during 2023-2032.
- Bulk helium plays an important role in the medical sector, where it is used in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) machines to cool the superconducting magnets to extremely low temperatures. This enables these magnets to generate powerful magnetic fields, which are essential for detailed images of the internal human anatomy. The prevalence of chronic diseases is surging around the world. As per the Centre for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), 6 in 10 adults in the U.S. are suffering from chronic diseases. And 4 out of 10 people have more than two chronic conditions. Also, about 21% of the geriatric adults in India have at least one chronic disease. 17% of geriatric people in rural areas and 29% in urban areas suffer from at least one chronic disease. This has heightened the demand for diagnostic imaging procedures like MRI and, consequently, helium.
- Semiconductor manufacturing relies heavily on this gas due to its inert properties and ability to act as a cooling agent. It is utilized to maintain the purity of the environment and prevent contamination during etching, deposition, and other delicate processes. It is also important for the cooling of semiconductor lasers and in the plasma etching process. According to the Semiconductor Industry Association (SIA), the global sales of the semiconductor industry stood at $46.2 billion during the month of February 2024, which is a 16.3 percent increase compared to same time period last year.
- This lightweight gas is also very valuable in the defense sector for various high-tech applications. Its low boiling point and inert characteristics make it a suitable substance for maintaining the cryogenic temperatures required to store liquid hydrogen and oxygen, which are used as rocket propellants. It is also employed in missile guidance systems and infrared (IR) detectors. As the investment in the defense sector continues, the demand fo this gas will also see a surge. According to the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute, the global military expenditure reached US$ 2443 billion in 2023, which is a 6.8% increase. Also, during the same year, the average military spending as a percentage of total government spending increased by 0.4%.
- Beyond all this, bulk helium is used widely in welding and metal fabrication applications. It acts as a shielding gas in gas tungsten arc welding (GTAW) and gas metal arc welding (GMAW). It protects the weld pool from atmospheric contamination, ensuring high-quality welds. Also, its inert nature prevents oxidation and other reactions that could weaken the weld.

Product Description
Bulk helium is a high-purity, tasteless, odorless, colorless, inert gas that is delivered in huge amounts for use in a variety of scientific, medicinal, and industrial purposes. It is also non-toxic and is sourced from natural gas fields and is available in different purity levels, catering to specific industry requirements. This gas is the second lightest element in the periodic table, with an atomic number of 2. It mostly remains in a gaseous state except at extremely low temperatures of -268.93°C (-452.07°F), where it becomes a liquid. Its key properties are boiling point (-268.93°C (-452.07°F)), melting point (-272.2°C (-458°F) at 2.5 MPa), density (0.1786 grams/liter).
This lightweight gas is produced in multiple involving extraction from underground reserves, cryogenic distillation, purification, and liquefaction for easier transport and storage. It is utilized in nuclear reactors, gas chromatography, welding, semiconductor production, research, leak detection, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) equipment, and party balloons. It is a multipurpose, safe gas with a reputation for purity, non-toxicity, inertness, and effective cooling.
