Wednesday, 11th December at 8:58 am
New Era Helium, Inc. (NASDAQ: NEHC) ("NEH," "New Era Helium" or the "Company"), an exploration and production (E&P) company sourcing helium produced in association with natural gas reserves within the Permian Basin, is pleased to announce significant progress on its 50/50 joint venture ("JV") with Sharon AI, Inc. ("Sharon AI"), a High-Performance Computing business specializing in Artificial Intelligence, Cloud GPU Compute Infrastructure, and Cloud Storage.
The two companies have executed a binding letter of intent (LOI) to develop and operate a 250MW net-zero energy data center in the Permian Basin, a significant increase from the originally announced 90MW facility [read here].
