An analytical technique was developed for analyzing maximum bottom hole temperatures, which are recorded during well logging operations, to determine static formation temperature. The method requires use of a maximum recording thermometer on each logging run, plus information concerning circulating time and time that the logging instrument was last on the bottom of the borehole.
