Royal Helium has awarded a contract to Arjae Design Solutions for the construction of Steveville 14-12 Helium Recovery Plant in Nisku, Alberta, Canada.
The plant will be situated around 40km north of Brooks in Alberta.
Site preparation works and procurement of long lead components have commenced.
The facility will have an operating throughput in the range of 10-15 million cubic feet per day (MMSCFD), producing helium with a 99.999% purity level.
Prior to directing to a three- tube trailer, the final helium product will be first compressed under a delivery pressure of 3,000 pounds per square inch gauge (psig).
The minimum delivery of helium under the first multi-year, fixed price, sales agreement marks about 40% of the facility’s capacity.

By GlobalDataRoyal Helium president and CEO Andrew Davidson said: “Facilitated by Obsidian Engineering of Calgary, we are pleased to award Arjae with the fabrication and commissioning of our first helium processing plant for Steveville.
“Arjae’s proprietary engineering designs provide several substantial economic benefits to Royal over other helium separation plant designs. The Steveville plant will produce: the highest grade 99.999% helium, food-grade carbon dioxide, high value condensate and fuel gas to power the entire facility.”
