Abstract
The invention relates to a process for converting a heavy hydrocarbon feedstock containing a fraction of at least 50% with a boiling point of at least 300° C., and containing sulfur, Conradson carbon, metals, and nitrogen, comprising at least two successive hydroconversion steps, which may be separated by an intermediate separation step, and at least one step of deasphalting a heavy fraction of the effluent resulting from the hydroconversion, with recycling at least one portion of the deasphalted oil (DAO) during the hydroconversion, downstream of the first hydroconversion step. The DAO is either recycled at the outlet thereof from the deasphalter, or after having undergone a fractionation step that produces a heavy fraction of the DAO that then constitutes the portion of the DAO that is recycled. This process makes it possible to simultaneously improve the degree of conversion and the stability of the liquid effluents.
