AB The use of a low-cost split-ring resonator (SRR) passive sensor for the real-time permittivitycharacterization of hydrocarbon fluids is proposed in this paper. The characterization of the sensoris performed through both full-wave simulation and measurements. Thanks to the analysis ofseveral crude samples, the possibility of discrimination between different types of crude and theestimation of several of their properties are demonstrated. Between them, the estimation of sulfur,aromatic hydrocarbons, and salt-water concentrations either in normal ambient conditions or in ahigh-pressure and high-temperature environment can be mentioned. Experiments were run both atnormal ambient conditions and pressures up to 970 bar and temperatures up to 200 °C.
