Abstract:
This paper is the result of mineral exploration engineering.
Objective Helium is more and more widely used in scientific research, medicine and high-tech industries because of its unique physical properties. It is the responsibility of the geological industry to find more helium resources to meet the market demand.
Method According to the principle of statistical analysis, the global helium exploration results and supply and demand situation are sorted and summarized.
Results The distribution of helium resources in the world is extremely uneven. The main helium suppliers are the United States, Qatar, Russia and so on. Recently, many companies have begun to carry out helium exploration and development in North America, Russia, Qatar and Tanzania. Helium resources in some parts of North America are located in nitrogen rich reservoirs and have broad development prospects. Global helium exploration activities have set off a new upsurge.
Conclusion In 2021, there was a supply gap in the global helium market, and the growth of global helium demand began to shift to Asia and the Middle East. It is suggested to pay great attention to the non-renewability and irreplaceability of helium, carry out helium resource potential evaluation project, explore the prospect of domestic non hydrocarbon helium deposits, strengthen international cooperation, carry out underground space evaluation and site selection of domestic helium reserves, and enhance China's helium storage capacity.
