Abstract
The present invention relates to a process for hydrodesulphurising a gas oil wherein a sulphur level of less than 50 ppm is obtained, said process comprising a) contacting a gas oil with hydrogen in the presence of a hydrodesulphurisation catalyst, and b) adjusting the temperature and pressure of hydrodesulphurisation so the temperature-pressure relationship lies on or between the curves T=211.15 P0.1363 and T=243.83 P0.1232, for all values of P≧0 where T=temperature in ° C., and P=pressure in bar a.
