Résumé

Since the USA abandoned its Helium Conservation Programme, global markets for helium have become increasingly unstable, and there are growing concerns about the future of cryogenics and its applications. Work in the last three years, since an International Helium Workshop at Cambridge, UK, has led to the publication of “The Future of Helium as a Natural Resource” (Nuttall et al., 2012) a record of facts, discussions and proposals regarding the question of helium supply, demand and application. For the first time ever, the World has to face the fact that a readily available natural resource, helium from natural gas, is unsustainable. The authors believe there is therefore a need to set up some form of new international arrangements for helium. In this paper they present and expand upon some of the ideas that have been proposed.
