Abstract: The invention concerns a petroleum product and a process for the production of a petroleum product which can form part of a blend for an internal combustion engine fuel, the process comprisinga) hydrotreating a hydrocarbon feedstock at a partial pressure of hydrogen at the reactor outlet of about 0.5 MPa to about 6 MPa,b) separating a product (P) from step a) into a product (P1) with a final boiling point of about 300.degree. C. and a product (P2) with an initial boiling point greater than the final boiling point of product (P1),c) performing a liquid-liquid extraction with a solvent (S1), to produce an extract (E1) and a raffinate (R1) from product (P2),d) recovering solvent (S1) from raffinate (R1) to produce a product (Q1), depleted in solvent (S1), which has improved qualities and contains less than 500 ppm by weight of sulphur.

Abstract: A fuel for internal combustion engines having an improved cetane index and lower sulfur content is obtained from a hydrocarbon charge, by a process comprising a step (a) for distillation (D1) in which a bottom product (Q1) is obtained via a line 3 and in which a top product (T1) is obtained via a line 2, a step (b) of liquid/liquid extraction (LE) using a solvent (S1) to obtain a raffinate (R1), (line 5) an extract from which product (Q1) is obtained (line 6), a step c) separating (D2) the raffinate (R1) enabling a product (Q2) to be obtained via line 7, which product has a low solvent (S1) content, and a step (d) of hydrotreatment (HDS) in which the mixture of the products (T1) and (Q2) are subjected to hydrotreatment with a hydrogen partial pressure of less than 10 megapascals, to obtain a product (P) (line 9) which has improved qualities and which contains less than 500 ppm by weight sulphur.
