A study of continuous flow gas lift system using Cfd

Gas lift optimization has been a point of interest for some decades in order to increase production in oil fields. Despite that there are still lacks of user friendly software in gas lift optimization. The ultimate goal of this study is to develop user friendly program using commercial Computational...
