A proper lift optimization can reduce the operating cost, increase the net present value (NPV) and maximize the recovery from the asset. A wide accepted definition of gas lift optimisation is to get the most output under specified operational conditions. In addition, gas lift, a costly and indispensable means to recover oil from high depth reservoir entails solving the gas lift optimization problems. Gas lift optimisation may be a continuous process; there are 2 levels of production optimisation_ the entire field optimization involves optimizing the surface facilities and also the injection rate which will be achieved by standard tools software. Well level optimisation is often achieved by optimizing the well parameters like point of injection, injection rate, and injection pressure. All these aspects have been investigated and presented in this study by using experimental data and PROSPER simulation program. The results show that the well head pressure has a large influence on the gas lift performance and also proved that smart gas lift valve can be used to improve gas raise performance by controlling gas injection from down hole. Obtaining the optimum gas injection rate is very important as a result of excessive gas injection reduces production rate and consequently will increase the operation expenditure.
