 * It is Highly Likely China To Not Start Investments In Burundi’s Petroleum Sector In The Next Five Years **

It is highly likely China will not start petroleum investments in Burundi in the next five years. According to the U.S. Energy Information Administration, Burundi has zero total oil and crude oil production. There have been no petroleum investments from China in the past five years; however Lake Tanganyika has been prospected but has yet to be exploited. Oil reserves are unknown and if oil were to be discovered, it is likely it would take beyond the next five years to discover and properly exploit.
