Helium is a strategically important raw material with diverse applications in high-tech, medicine, and energy. The global supply situation is tight, while new exploration projects are increasingly attracting investor attention. GOLDINVEST.de reports on current developments, market trends, and relevant companies in the helium sector.
The helium price is currently heavily influenced by supply shortages and geopolitical risks. Production outages in Qatar or the USA, along with rising demand from the semiconductor and aerospace industries, are driving price pressure. Forecasts remain volatile as many new projects are still in the development phase.
Note: This page is updated regularly to always provide you with the latest developments.
Publicly listed helium companies mainly include exploration firms in North America, Africa, and Australia. Smaller developers with access to so-called “green helium” deposits are particularly active. The sector is young but offers high-growth niches for specialized investors.

Helium is a noble gas with unique physical properties, including an extremely low boiling point and chemical inertness. It is not artificially produced but extracted as a byproduct of natural gas production. For investors, helium is interesting because it is considered a critical raw material with a highly concentrated global supply. Technological trends in aerospace, quantum computing, and semiconductor manufacturing increase its strategic importance.
Helium is used in numerous key industries, especially where no other raw material offers comparable properties.
Helium is a niche market with high price sensitivity, making it attractive for specialized investors. Opportunities lie in exploration projects with access to pure helium, especially outside politically unstable regions. Risks arise from political interventions, project delays, and a lack of market transparency.
How is the helium market developing?
Demand is steadily increasing—especially from high-tech sectors. At the same time, supply remains limited, which can lead to price spikes and market shortages.
Which companies are particularly interesting right now?
Exploration companies with advanced projects in the USA, Canada, or Namibia offer potential—especially those focused on “green” helium.
Which external factors influence supply and demand?
Geopolitics, production bottlenecks, new technologies, and demand from aerospace and semiconductor industries directly impact market availability and price.
Is helium a long-term investment theme?
Yes, because helium is hard to replace, and technological innovations are likely to further increase industrial dependence on it.
