differential temperature log

1. n. []

A record of the difference in temperature between two vertical points in a well. Most differential-temperature logs are obtained by differentiating a normal temperature log with respect to depth. Some are obtained by recording the difference in temperature between two vertically displaced sensors. Note that the differential-temperature log and the radial differential-temperature log are not the same.
