Industry News

While direct rare-gas-specific developments over the last quarter appear limited in major media sources, broader helium market dynamics remain highly relevant:
• Helium Demand Surge: Though reported in September 2024, the doubling of global helium demand by 2035—driven by semiconductor growth and technology reliance remains a key long-term narrative.
• Regional Energy Assurance: In a recent move, Western Australia’s Premier reassured Japan of continued reliable LNG supply, emphasizing its role in supporting energy transitions and downstream sectors—including resources that tie into rare gas production via air separation—highlighting supply chain stability.

Government Policy Impacts (U.S. & Japan)
United States
While rare gases themselves are not directly targeted by legislation, broader macroeconomic drivers have indirect influence:
• U.S. leadership in rare gas production and robust distribution infrastructure supports supply stability. North America is expected to remain dominant in market share through 2037
Japan
• Japan continues to rely on strategic investments and policies fostering resource security. While rare gases aren't specifically regulated, the country's broader focus on securing critical materials—especially via bodies like JOGMEC—is supportive of long-term supply resilience
• Additionally, continued LNG alliance with regions like Western Australia underpins feedstock stability for industrial gas production
