Global Helium Market Report 2016-2021 – Analysis, Technologies & Forecasts – Vendors: Air Liquide, Air Products, Airgas – Research and Markets

Research and Markets has announced the addition of the "Global
Helium Market - Segmented by Phase, End-User Industries, Application and
Geography - Trends and Forecasts (2016 - 2021)" report to their
offering.

Helium is the second most abundant element in the Universe; however,
sparse on earth. Currently, helium consumed, globally, is extracted from
natural gas, which has a low helium concentration. Helium gas is most
commonly used in the healthcare industry as a coolant, for the
superconducting magnets in MRI. The other end-user industries include
aviation & aerospace, electronics and semiconductors, and nuclear power.

The market is mainly driven by the increase in urbanization and
industrialization in developing economies like India, China, etc. Other
factors include the massive research done in the helium production.
However, the market faces certain drawbacks like government regulations,
volatile price of helium, and expensive extraction process. These
factors may act as a roadblock to the growth of the market.

The helium market, on the basis of phase, is divided into liquid and
gas. Liquid helium amounts to 25-30% of the total helium consumed,
worldwide. The market can further be segmented by application into
cryogenics, breathing mixes, coolant, wielding and rocket fuel. The
cryogenic segment had the highest market share, which amounted to 26% of
total helium consumption, in 2015.

The market has also been geographically segmented into APAC, North
America, Europe, South America, and MEA. In terms of consumption in
2016, MEA and Europe led the market, with a share of 37%, collectively.
