Temperature gradient well definition

Temperature gradient well means a well authorized under a geothermal ex- ploration permit drilled in order to ob- tain information on the change in tem- perature over the depth of the well.
Temperature gradient well means a well located outside a known geothermal reservoir and being used solely for the purpose of measuring the temperature-gradient.
Temperature gradient well means a geothermal well used solely for the purpose of measuring the temperature change with depth.
