The Montana Helium Fairway
Helix Exploration has developed a pipeline of projects based on 25-years’ experience exploring Helium within the region.
Why Montana?
A helium system extending from Saskatchewan to Wyoming. The ‘Montana Helium Fairway’ is named after several helium discoveries made in the Cambrian Flathead Formation on the western edge of the Williston Basin.
- Hosts helium production from North American Helium and Weil Group
- Helium is generated in ancient crust and migrates along major structures
- Nitrogen gas is an important exploration indicator and all helium discoveries on the Flathead Fairway are associated with nitrogen
- Existing infrastructure located across the state for the processing, storing and transportation of helium gas
- Supportive government officials and legislation for exploration and production – natural gas has been successfully produced from Montana for decades
- Safe geographical jurisdiction

Helix Exploration is focused on drilling and rapid commercialisation of low-risk helium assets. An aggressive development timeline saw drilling commence in Q3 2024, with production planned for Rudyard in 2025.
