can't see how you could cool that length with the type of cooler you're suggesting.

typically be between 10 to 100ft long. If the string is very long a couple of runs may be made with shorter strings, but time is (lots off) money in this game.

Okay, so use more than one cooler. No worries.

A really long heat pipe could extend from downhole up to a big ice chest in the truck, with a heatsink nestled among the beer cans.

Or, less refreshing, pump some high pressure gas down there and cool by expansion.

Maybe a 2" casing 6 miles long and 15,000 psi.

But the pressure down there is higher than in the gas bottle. Where would it expand to?

A return tube, presumably.

Only partly silly. Nothing in the package of a 200C or higher part will be soldered normally. Even in the early 1970s high temperature stuff was all welded or wire bonded if that was the scale. For devices to operate at=20
