Title Inversion of bottom-hole temperature data: the Pineview field, Utah-Wyoming thrust belt
Date 1988-05
Description The present day temperature field in a sedimentary basin is a constraint on the maturation of hydrocarbons; this temperature field may be estimated by inverting corrected bottom-hole temperature (BHT) data. Thirty-two BHTs from the Pineview oil field are corrected for drilling disturbances by a Horner plot and inverted for the geothermal gradient in nine formations.
