 Extended Abstract
SMU also had success comparing BHT data corrected using their equation to thermal reconstructions for the Anadarko Basin in Oklahoma, based on heat flow and conductivity modeling (Gallardo and Blackwell, 1999).
As a result the tendency for using the BHT data is to miss the highest and lowest gradients in an area.
The secondary correction was applied to all of the AAPG BHT data in the 1000 to 3000 m depth range as a function of gradient based on the least squares line shown in Figure 2 below.
