How do I estimate Bottom Hole Temperature for 2 wells?


15+ million members
I am trying to develop 1-D basin models for 4 wells in the same basin. Only 2 wells
have Bottom Hole Temperature and there is no formation temperature for the four 118+ million publications
wells. How do I assume or estimate BHT value from nearby well. 700k+ research projects

If we consider all four wells in the same structure in the same basin, than the temp.
I am working on a thesis titled "Evaluation of

seismo-geological model and also prepare well-correlation among all the wells.
Observe, if same reservoir facies continues, in that case BHP/ BHT should be View
similar (considering all wells are in same structure). Thereby you may estimate BHT. Equations for geothermal calculation?
