The steel casing of a well is deliberately magnetized with a known orientation by the passage therethrough of a tool having a demagnetizing section and a magnetizing section along with a gyrocompass section and a magnetic compass section. The casing is first demagnetized and then remagnetized with a polarization which can be determined. The two compasses establish the orientation of the remagnetized casing.
