Induction logging sonde including transmitter and receiver solenoid coils mounted on a support and axially separated from each other. The support is made of conductive material and comprises at least one first longitudinal portion for mounting the coils and second longitudinal portions on each side of the first portion. At least the first portion has a substantially continuous and axisymmetric outer surface so as to favor the flow of eddy currents around the surface, whereby the electric field on that surface is substantially cancelled.
