Abstract
Reliable estimates of bottom‐hole temperature (BHT) in oil wells are of considerable interest in reservoir engineering problems as well as in geothermal research. Because BHT measurements are usually made soon after drilling, true formation temperature can be obtained only by correcting for the effects of drilling disturbances. The magnitude of drilling disturbance depends upon duration of drilling, time elapsed after stoppage of drilling, well characteristics, thermal properties of drilling fluid, and the nature of heat exchange between the well and the formation.
