Abstract

With the development of the petroleum industry and advancements in technology, gas injection techniques have gradually matured and become an important means to enhance oil recovery in reservoir development. Gas channeling is a major challenge in the process of gas injection development. The presence of gas channeling can lead to a decrease in the swept volume of gas flooding, severely affecting the effectiveness of gas injection development. This paper focuses on low-permeability reservoirs, comprehensively analyzing the development characteristics of low-permeability reservoirs and the dynamic characteristics of gas flooding production. It selects and evaluates indicators for assessing the development degree of gas channeling and establishes a fuzzy comprehensive evaluation method for evaluating gas channeling in the gas injection development of low-permeability reservoirs. Based on the evaluation values derived from the fuzzy comprehensive evaluation, it classifies the development levels of gas channeling. Application in oilfield cases shows that the evaluation results of this method are generally consistent with the dynamic response of production data, with high evaluation accuracy. This provides strong support for implementing gas channeling prevention and control measures on site and improving the effectiveness of gas injection development.
