Actually, I was looking for the input, as there are always a few gems weaved in.
Thus, this fits well with doing a lecture on empowerment and management styles.

But hats off to those who have been posting here since 2020, as it has always been a gold mine of those who dug up info and shared it without wanting anything in return.

K.. back on topic.. in support of the figures..

Based on the latest information from several sources, it is evident that helium prices can indeed reach high levels, particularly in specialized or bulk contracts.

NASA Deal:

• NASA has recently signed a contract with Air Products to supply helium, with prices reportedly over $1,100/Mcf. This contract underscores the high value of helium in bulk and specialized applications, especially for critical and high-tech uses such as those by NASA

1. Current Market Conditions:

   • The global helium market has experienced significant price surges due to supply shortages and increasing demand. For instance, bulk helium import prices to China have exceeded $450/Mcf in recent times. This high price reflects the ongoing supply constraints and the crucial role of helium in various industries
   • Additionally, industry reports indicate that wholesale prices for helium can range significantly, from $500 to as high as $1,200/Mcf, depending on the supply situation and contractual agreements

2. Supply Chain and Market Dynamics:

   • The helium market is characterized by its supply volatility, often driven by production issues and geopolitical factors. Despite efforts to stabilize the supply, such as the planned increase in production from Russia's Amur plant, the market remains prone to price fluctuations due to its concentrated supply sources and the complex logistics of helium transport

These high prices for bulk helium delivery highlight the potential profitability for companies like Blue Star Helium, provided they can secure such high-value contracts or reduce operating costs through efficient production and processing methods. The potential for liquefied helium, which commands even higher prices, offers another avenue for increasing revenue streams.

In conclusion, the elevated prices for helium, especially in bulk contracts, present a lucrative opportunity for helium producers. By optimizing production and potentially leveraging liquefaction processes, companies can capitalize on these favourable market conditions

Thus, I rest my case, your honour, on whether I am stealing someone's research.

Many minds make light work. I love the work that many have provided. In 2020, I had no idea about this market; I was more of a conventional fracking gas guy.
