Tietze, K., Hirslund, F., Morkel, P., Boyle, J., Wüest, A., & Schmid, M. (2009). Management prescriptions for the development of Lake Kivu gas resources.
To support initiatives to extract methane dissolved deep in Lake Kivu, a Workshop on Lake Kivu Monitoring was held in Gisenyi from March 25 to March 28, 2007. The main topic of the workshop was the monitoring of the lake necessary for maintaining public safety and the integrity of the lake’s stability, ecology and gas resource while undertaking gas extraction operations. At the workshop it was realised that, to achieve these objectives, scientific- technical guidance was required for the concessioning, design and operation of gas extraction plants.
