In a typical ultra-deep high-temperature and high-pressure heterogeneous reservoir in Xinjiang, gas channeling quickly occurs during gas injection because of the heterogeneity of the reservoir, the low viscosity of gas injection, and the high gas-oil fluidity ratio. The identification and prediction methods of gas channeling in gas injection development were studied. First, gas channeling discrimination parameters were determined by the numerical simulation method. According to the ratio of gas to oil produced and the composition of oil and gas produced, the flow stages of formation fluid were divided into five regions: gas phase zone, two-phase zone, miscible zone, dissolved gas and oil zone, and original oil zone. The basis for gas channeling identification (namely, the field characterization parameters for gas channeling discrimination) was discovered through analysis and the knowledge of the operability of field monitoring data as the following two parameters: (1) the C1 content rising again on the previous platform when the trailing edge of the two-phase zone is produced and (2) the continuous rise of the gas-oil ratio in production. Then, considering the original high-pressure characteristics of the reservoir, the field characterization parameters of gas channeling under different formation pressures in the exploitation process (namely, C1 content and gas-oil ratio) were simulated and determined. Thus, a gas channeling discrimination method was established for gas injection development in ultra-deep high-temperature and high-pressure heterogeneous reservoirs. According to this gas injection approach, a gas channeling discrimination method was developed, and the field gas channeling judgment was carried out for a gas injection effective D1 well. The results of gas tracer detection were compared to verify the accuracy of this method, leading to strong support for this method in slowing down the gas channeling.
