Estimating the term…
Fuels and/or fuel blending components can be formed from hydroprocessing of high lift deasphalted oil. The high lift deasphalting can correspond to solvent deasphalting to produce a yield of deasphalted oil of at least 50 wt %, or at least 65 wt %, or at least 75 wt %. The resulting fuels and/or fuel blending components formed by hydroprocessing of the deasphalted oil can have unexpectedly high naphthene content and/or density. Additionally or alternately, deasphalted oil generated from high lift deasphalting represents a disadvantaged feed that can be converted into a fuel and/or fuel blending components with unexpected compositions. Additionally or alternately, the resulting fuels and/or fuel blending components can have unexpectedly beneficial cold flow properties, such as cloud point, pour point, and/or freeze point.
A distillate boiling range composition comprising a first portion having a T5 distillation point of at least 190° C. and a T90 distillation point of 350° C. or less, the first portion comprising a pour point of −50° C. or less and at least 90 wt % saturates, the saturates comprising at least 50 wt % naphthenes relative to a weight of the first portion.
A distillate boiling range composition comprising a T5 distillation point of at least 270° C., a T95 distillation point of 400° C. or less, and a density at 15° C. of at least 0.85 g/cm3, the composition comprising at least 70 wt % saturates, the saturates comprising at least 50 wt % naphthenes relative to a weight of the composition.
A composition comprising a T10 distillation point of at least 500° C. and a T90 distillation point of 700° C. or less, the composition comprising at least 75 wt % saturates, the saturates comprising at least 50 wt % naphthenes relative to a weight of the composition.
A composition comprising a T10 distillation point of at least 370° C., a T90 distillation point of 700° C. or less, and a density of 0.86 g/cm3 or less, the composition comprising at least 75 wt % saturates, the saturates comprising at least 50 wt % naphthenes relative to a weight of the composition.
