ABSTRACT:
A waxy hydrocarbon feedstock is converted into a high quality lube oil stock of reduced pour point by hydrodewaxing the feedstock in the presence of molecular hydrogen and a hydrodewaxing catalyst under conditions such that the pour point of the feedstock is reduced by selectively converting waxy paraffins into lower molecular weight hydrocarbons. At least a portion of the effluent from the hydrodewaxing zone is then passed to a hydrocracking zone where it is contacted with a hydrocracking catalyst under conditions such that a further reduction in pour point is effected and the overall conversion of components boiling above about 650.degree. F. to components boiling at or below about 650.degree. F. in the hydrodewaxing and hydrocracking steps combined is no more than about 20 percent by volume, preferably no more than about 10 percent by volume.
