Some axially symmetric boundary value problems of potential theory are formulated as integral equations of the first kind. In each case the kernel admits an expansion, for small values of a parameter of the problem, that leads to an approximate integral equation whose solution provides a direct asymptotic estimate for the physical quantity of primary interest. A manipulation of the original and modified integral equations provides an efficient formula for calculating higher order terms in the asymptotic expansion.
