Abstract: A method for recovering a helium product or intermediate product, wherein a first natural gas stream containing helium is supplied to a first natural gas processing unit and at least one second natural gas stream containing helium is supplied to at least one second natural gas processing unit, at least the first natural gas processing unit comprising helium recovery means via which the helium product is formed from at least a part of the first natural gas stream. At least temporarily a helium transfer from the at least one second natural gas stream to the first natural gas stream by means of a helium transfer arrangement comprising a membrane unit is performed before the first natural gas stream is provided to the first natural gas processing unit and before the at least one second natural gas stream is provided to the at least one second natural gas processing unit.

Abstract: The invention relates to a transport container for helium, comprising an inner container for receiving the helium, an insulation element that is provided on the exterior of the inner container, a coolant container for receiving a cryogenic liquid, an outer container in which the inner container and the coolant container are received, and a thermal shield which can be actively cooled with the aid of the cryogenic liquid and in which the inner container is received, wherein a peripheral gap is provided between the insulation element and the thermal shield, and said insulation element comprises an electrodeposited copper layer that faces the thermal shield.
