description Accurate carbon dioxide (CO2) phase prediction at the bottomhole of injection wells is essential for ensuring safe and efficient CO2 storage and enhanced gas recovery (EGR). Phase misclassification can cause operational inefficiencies, equipment failure, and compromised storage integrity, posing significant risks to CO2 injection projects. While previous studies have contributed to CO2 phase prediction, they have overlooked well geometry effects, which can impact reliability in real-world applications. This study addresses these challenges by introducing a deep learning framework based on the adaptive factorization network (AFN), which enhances CO2 phase prediction accuracy by leveraging feature interactions. The AFN model was trained on ∼43,000 wells across seven major North American shale gas basins, covering a wide range of well geometries and injection conditions. CO2 phases were classified into supercritical and dense categories, reflecting prevailing flow conditions. To enhance practical applicability, we incorporated real-field wellbore data, ensuring alignment with actual injection environments. The standard AFN model achieved an F1-score of 0.94, with data augmentation further improving performance by reducing false predictions by 50 % and increasing the F1-score to 0.97. Rigorous validation demonstrated the model's robustness for optimizing wellhead temperature to achieve the desired CO2 phase transition. By explicitly considering well geometry effects and real-field conditions, this study advances data-driven CO2 injection modeling, providing a scalable, high-accuracy framework for evaluating CO2 storage and EGR feasibility.
