A feed stream including crude oil may be processed by a method that includes separating the feed stream into at least a C1-C4 hydrocarbon fraction, a lower boiling point fraction, and a higher boiling point fraction. The method may further include steam cracking at least a portion of the C1-C4 hydrocarbon fraction to form a steam cracked product, steam enhanced catalytically cracking at least a portion of the lower boiling point fraction to form a steam enhanced catalytically cracked product, and hydrocracking at least a portion of the higher boiling point fraction to form a hydrocracked product. The method may further include passing at least a portion of the steam cracked product and at least a portion of the steam enhanced catalytically cracked product to a product separator to produce one or more product streams. Systems for processing a feed stream comprising crude oil are further described herein.
