They recognize that this clean alternative fuel can help make an impactful dent in boosting our country's green energy initiatives as well as reducing carbon emissions across industries by decreasing reliance on fossil fuels like coal and petroleum products, etc., which Air Product’s own extensive experience with helping others achieve sustainability goals through chemical innovation will bring about even more progress than beforeĪir Products and Chemicals has well over 60 years of experience producing hydrogen, and more than two decades designing fueling stations. Other companies looking to capitalize on the alternative resource space:Īir Products & Chemicals (NYSE:APD) has been at the forefront of global hydrogen production for years. The clock is ticking on this one and it goes way beyond party balloons. We’re looking at a fast-moving play with world-class helium potential and a management team of world-renowned wildcatting fame. Industrial Gas Companies have been paying a premium to Russia and Qatar for helium, so a sizable North American option is not only ideal-it’s vital.īoth Total Helium (TSX.V:TOH) management and Linde have significant skin in this game which could provide a serious boost in investor confidence.Īnd they’ve just spudded their first well, with completion targeted for this December. That search has taken them as far away as Russia and Qatar, but transporting helium that far is a risk because it is not bound to the earth by gravity and can leak away. Linde bought much of its past helium from the BLM, but now they have to look elsewhere. A NASA space shuttle requires 1 million cubic feet of helium just during the launch countdown. Fiber-optic telecommunications might be impossible without helium. Now, helium is a key to our supercomputing power. During the Cold War, helium was used for cooling the tips of missiles. Since then, helium has been considered a strategic gas held in a federal reserve. The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) first jumped on helium in WWI, feeding technology that sent helium balloons to bomb our adversaries. In other words, there is nothing that can replace it. Helium is extremely lightweight, non-reactive, and can liquify at extremely low temperatures. #4 North America is Desperate for Home-Grown Helium ![]() They also have a $360,000 consulting contract with Linde for establishing underground helium storage facilities, with 50/50% ownership deal. And they’re set to receive another $950,000 as they spud their first wells. The company has already received $950,000 in the form of an upfront payment from Linde. This partnership deal also looks like an ideal setup for generating cash flow for Total Helium. ![]() ![]() federal helium is planned to be auctioned off to private investors. federal helium reserve in the entire world. Total Helium (TSX.V:TOH) and Linde have a JV deal that may see them create the only alternative helium storage facility to the U.S. Linde (NYSE:LIN) is a $160-billion-market-cap major that provides atmospheric gases to customers in multiple trillion-dollar industries, from petroleum refining, aerospace, electronics, and healthcare to manufacturing, food and beverage, chemicals and water treatment industries. A partnership with a huge multinational industrial gas company makes this opportunity a rare one for a junior player. ![]()
