A matrix formulation is performed for a linear current‐carrying source located within a cased borehole valid for any frequency. The surrounding formation could be any number of concentric homogeneous regions. It is shown that induced polarization phenomena at the casing‐formation interface can also be modeled as a limiting special case.
