Our Story:

True North International was founded in England by Alan Bernard to bring independent, world-class expertise in gyroscopic wellbore surveying to forward-thinking operators and service companies. With more than 35 years leading innovation and operations at industry leaders like Icefield Energy and Gyrodata, Alan built this boutique firm to deliver precision, performance, and profitability — without the bias of equipment vendors.

Why “True North”?

Our name embodies that quest for uncompromising precision — and our promise to guide clients toward the most accurate, ethical, and commercially rewarding outcomes.
