Product Definition :
TechSci Research has covered and considered helium, whose unique properties allows usage in applications such as
cryogenics, inert atmosphere, fiber optics manufacturing, leak detection and other applications. Helium, with no
substitute in certain applications such as low temperature cryogenics, is viewed as an important commodity. Also
considering the small molecular size and chemical inertness, helium proves to be an ideal gas for leak detection.
Baseline Methodology :
For the study, TechSci Research have gathered information through primary research surveys with 15 respondents
from 8 companies dealing either producing, refining or distributing helium followed by counter validating the
information by analysing best available financial reports of these companies. We also put through exhaustive search
of credible paid databases such as Hoovers, Factiva, Bloomberg etc., including our internal database. Our team of
analysts have then prudently evaluated all the collected information and personated them in chronological order to
depict a meaningful and clear portrait of global helium market.
While compiling the data we have also crossed checked all the collected information from multiple sources and data
warehouses, so that we can present the most accurate and precise information of the concerned industry. The team
encountered a number of challenges during the span of the project such as extracting data from the market was
difficult as the information is beheld among leading players in the market. In addition to this language barrier also
posed a hurdle in some countries, where English is not one of the primarily spoken language.
