Abstract
The temperature in the oil field has been used as a parameter to characterize a relatively wide variety of time-response events such as fracture, fluid and gas flow, cementing, and drilling conditions. Also, it has been utilized for monitoring the production conditions as well as for the prevention or estimation of hazardous conditions. On the other hand, thermal properties play a very important and useful role in helping to understanding the process to reach steady-state conditions and in predicting such behaviors in later timescales. Through consideration of temperature logging and monitoring, oil and gas temperature during production and transportation, thermal production, and thermal properties' measurement, this paper describes an overview of how temperature and thermal properties are applied in the oil field and explain the future of such implications.
