The present invention relates to a catalyst composition for ethylene oligomerization and the use thereof. Such catalyst composition includes chromium compound, ligand containing P and N, activator and accelerator; wherein the chromium compound is selected from the group consisting of acetyl acetone chromium, THF-chromium chloride and Cr(2-ethylhecanoate); general formula of the ligand containing P and N is shown as: in which R, R, Rand Rare phenyl, benzyl, or naphthyl. Ris isopropyl, butyl, cyclopropyl, cyclopentyl, cyclohexyl or fluorenyl; the activatior is methyl aluminoxane, ethyl aluminoxane, propyl aluminoxane and/or butyl aluminoxane; the accelerator is selected from the group consisting of 1,1,2,2,-tetrachloroethane, 1,1,2,2-tetrabromoethane, 1,1,2,2-tetrafluoroethane, and compounds having a formula of XRX, in which Xand Xare F, Cl, Br, I or alkoxyl, Ris alkylene or arylene group; the molar ratio of chromium compound, ligand containing P and N, activator and accelerator is 1:0.5&#x2dc;10:50&#x2dc;3000:0.5&#x2dc;10. After mixing the four components mentioned previously under nitrogen atmosphere for 10 minutes, they are incorporated to the reactor, or these four components are incorporated directly into the reactor. Then ethylene is introduced for oligomerization. Such catalyst can be used in producing 1-octene through ethylene oligomerization. It is advantageous in high catalysing activity, high 1-octene selectivity, etc. The catalytic activity is more than 1.0&#xd7;10g product&#xb7;maCr&#xb7;h, the fraction of Clinear &#x3b1;-olefin is more than 70% by mass.
