There are no reliable data sets for North Dakota that either list, or enable determination byextrapolation, subsurface temperatures for Cretaceous rocks. Bottom hole temperatures from oilwell logs are unreliable and to assume that a simple linear relationship exists betweentemperature and depth would be incorrect. Although grossly linear the geothermal gradient inthe upper lithosphere is significantly affected by thermal variables (heat flow and thermalconductivity) in the earth's crust. Any method used to accurately calculate subsurfacetemperatures must therefore take these factors into account. Provided the subsurfacestratigraphy is known, Gosnold (1984) showed that at a given depth (Z) the temperature (T) canbe represented by the following equation:

The Dakota Group contains the shallowest of four major geothermal aquifers that occur in theWilliston Basin. It lies unconformably above the Jurassic-age Swift Formation. The mapshows calculated temperatures ( ) for the base of the Inyan Kara Formation, the oldestof the four rock units that comprise the Dakota Group (fig . 1).

100oGeothermal energy is a renewable resource capable of producing an uninterrupted supply ofelectrical power and heat. In stable sedimentary basins, low-temperature energy ( < F)is extracted from the shallow subsurface (~8-400 feet) for use in domestic andcommercial heating and cooling systems. Historically, deeper, hotter resources in these regionshave not been developed because they were not economical. However, as the nationexplores ways to reduce its dependency on foreign energy sources and also begins to lookmore closely at renewable energy, accessing deep geothermal energy resources,particularly via existing oil and gas wells, is attracting a great deal of interest( ).
For the data set used to produce this map K and Q were assumed to be constants. Mean surface temperature was calculated from monthly station normals (atBismarck Municipal Airport, Fargo Hector Airport, Grand Forks International Airport,and Williston Sloulin Airport) for the period 1971 to 2000
(T0 = 5.1o C [41o F])T0,
http://cdo.ncdc.noaa.gov/climatenormals/clim81/NDnorm.pdf( ).Thermal conductivities (K) for formations overlying the Inyan Kara are shown in Table 1 .
Regional heat flow (Q= 62 mW/m2) was averaged from statewide data.Rock units and thicknesses were obtained from oil well log tops (July 2006 update).Temperatures were only calculated for wells where all relevant log tops were given sinceomissions (particularly for the Pierre Formation) do not necessarily imply that units are absent.Metadata used in the compilation of this map is available on CD.
