In 2022, the grade-A helium production capacity in the United States amounted to some 176 million cubic meters. The entire rest of the world's grade-A helium production capacity amounted to just 165 million cubic meters that year, which means that the U.S. has by far the world's largest production capacity.
Grade-A helium is 99.997 percent helium, which is mainly used in cryogenic applications, as well as pressurizing and purging, and to control atmosphere in manufacturing settings, among other lesser uses.
