1. A fuel gas removal system comprising: a venturi configured to reduce a pressure of a fuel said venturi having a variable opening operable to control a flow of said fuel therethrough, whereby a flow of fuel therethrough is maintained at a relatively constant static pressure,a bubble separator containing media to assist in a formation of gas bubbles within the fuel to separate the gas bubbles therefrom,a sensor for sensing a rate of fuel flow downstream of said venturi and upstream of said bubble separator, anda port to remove gas bubbles created by the reduction of the pressure of the fuel and said bubble separator. 2. The system of claim 1 further comprising: an inlet line in fluid communication with said venturi,a controller for receiving signals from said sensor and for controlling said variable opening in response to said signals so that the fuel in said inlet line flows at a relatively constant rate through said venturi. 3. A system comprising: a plurality of fuel gas removal systems of claim 1 arranged serially or in parallel or in combination with an FSU. 4. The system of claim 1 wherein said variable opening further comprises: a throat anda valve that varies an area of said throat. 5. The system of claim 4 wherein said valve is arranged downstream of said throat. 6. The system of claim 1 wherein said system further comprises: a vacuum source in communication with said port for removing the gas bubbles. 7. The system of claim 2 wherein said controller is located in close proximity to said sensor and said venturi.
