Abstract
Provided is a fluid flow control system and a well system. The fluid flow control system, in one aspect, includes a fluid nozzle operable to receive production fluid having a pressure (P) and discharge control fluid having a control pressure (P). The fluid flow control system, in accordance with this aspect, further includes an inflow control device having a production fluid inlet operable to receive the production fluid having the pressure (P), a control inlet operable to receive the control fluid having the control pressure (P) from the fluid nozzle, and a production fluid outlet operable to pass the production fluid to the tubing, the inflow control device configured to open or close the production fluid outlet based upon a pressure differential value (P−P). The fluid flow control system, in another aspect, includes a flow regulator coupled to the inflow control device, the flow regulator configured to regulate a pressure drop (P−P) across the production fluid inlet and the production fluid outlet.
