Abstract: Process for hydrotreating a heavy hydrocarbon fraction using a system of switchable fixed bed guard zones each containing at least one catalyst bed including at least one step during which the flow of feed supplied to the first guard zone brought into contact with the feed is partly displaced to the next guard zone downstream, preferably progressively.

Abstract: Process for hydrotreating a heavy hydrocarbon fraction using a system of switchable fixed bed guard zones each containing at least two catalyst beds and in which whenever the catalyst bed that is brought initially into contact with the feed is deactivated and/or clogged during the steps in which the feed passes successively through all the guard zones, the point of introduction of the feed is shifted downstream. The present invention also relates to an installation for implementing this process.

Abstract: Method and plant for converting hydrocarbon feedstock comprising a shale oil, comprising a step of decontaminating, a step of hydroconverting in an ebullating bed, a step of fractionating into a light fraction, a naphtha fraction, a gas-oil fraction and a fraction heavier than the gas-oil fraction, the naphtha and gas-oil fractions being hydrotreated, the fraction heavier than the gas-oil fraction being conveyed to the decontaminating step. The method aims to maximize the yield of fuel bases.

Abstract: Method for converting hydrocarbon feedstock comprising a shale oil, comprising a step of hydroconverting in an ebullating bed, a step of fractionating by atmospheric distillation into a light fraction, a naphtha fraction, a gas-oil fraction and a fraction heavier than the gas-oil fraction, a step of liquid/liquid extraction of the fraction heavier than the gas-oil fraction, and a dedicated hydrotreating for each of the naphtha and gas-oil fractions. The method aims to maximize the yield of fuel bases.

Abstract: The invention relates to a process and installation for treating heavy petroleum feedstocks for producing a gas oil fraction that has a sulfur content of less than 50 ppm and most often 10 ppm that includes the following stages: a) mild hydrocracking in a fixed catalyst bed, b) separation from hydrogen sulfide of a distillate fraction that includes a gas oil fraction and a heavier fraction than the gas oil, c) hydrotreatment (including desulfurization) of said distillate fraction, and d) separation of a gas oil fraction with less than 50 ppm of sulfur. Advantageously, the heavy fraction is sent into catalytic cracking. The process preferably operates with make-up hydrogen that is brought to stage c), and very advantageously all of the make-up hydrogen of the process in introduced in stage c).

Abstract: A process for hydrotreating a hydrocarbon feed includes passing the feed into a hydrodesulphurization zone along with hydrogen, where a partially desulphurized effluent is sent to a stripping zone in which it is purified by at least one hydrogen-containing gas under conditions in which a gaseous stripping effluent containing hydrogen and hydrogen sulphide is formed along with a liquid effluent containing substantially no hydrogen sulphide.
