ABOUT HELISON MARKETING SA

Helison Marketing SA is a joint venture between Linde, the world leader in industrial gases, and Sonatrach, Africa’s leading hydrocarbon company and Algeria’s flagship public corporation.

Le Partenariat entre Linde et Sonatrach, établi en 2002, a abouti à la construction d’une Usine de production d’hélium liquide de 600 millions de pieds cubes standards (scft), appelée Helison Production et dont la production est destinée totalement à l’exportation à travers Helison Marketing SA.

Built in 2006, the helium extraction plant, supplied with natural gas from Sonatrach’s GL1K liquefaction complex, is strategically located nearby.

Located a few kilometres from the export port of Skikda, the factory enjoys privileged access, which streamlines logistics operations and strengthens Helison Marketing SA’s role in meeting the needs of its customers.
