Key words: temperature logging, temperature sensor, injection, well, tubing.

The paper presents the results of measurements of contemporary complex tools which contain temperature channel. It is shown that the design of the tool, in particular, the location of the temperature sensor is very inefficient. This leads to mixing of fluids in the wellbore and recording distorted temperature. As a result, the conclusion on the state of the wellbore and reservoir is wrong.
