  We propose a model to study the importance of double parton scattering (DPS)
in Mueller-Navelet jets production at the LHC which is consistent with the BFKL
framework used to compute the single parton scattering contribution to this
process. We study this model in kinematics corresponding to existing and
possible future measurements at the LHC and estimate the importance of this DPS
contribution on relevant observables for this process, namely the cross section
and the azimuthal correlation of the jets.
