Geothermal Regime of the World Sedimentary Basins

The type of geothermal regime is considered as the significant attribute influenced on the paleotemperature reconstruction methodology and heat flow analysis especially in basin modeling approach. That is the relevance of this study related with. A number of generalized equations were obtained by detailed studying of the temperature-depth profiles and various geothermal indicators al over the world. Three main "summarizing" groups of factors were identified. These allowed classifying all equations obtained into 3 classes: Anomalous, Normal and Magmatic intrusions influenced geothermal regimes.
