A method and apparatus for determining the distance and direction of a well from a borehole. A toroidal inductor surrounds a drill stem within a borehole. The inductor acts as a primary for a transformer, with the drill stem, the earth surrounding the borehole, and electrically conductive material at the target well forming a single loop transformer secondary. An oscillator is connected to the primary to produce an induced AC current in the secondary. Secondary current flowing in the target well produces an AC secondary magnetic field which is detected at the borehole.
