A process and catalyst are provided for the hydrogenation of a hydrocarbon feedstock consisting essentially of hydrocarbon boiling between about 150.degree. F. and 700.degree. F. at atmospheric pressure. The process comprises reacting the feedstock with hydrogen at hydrogenation conditions in the presence of a catalyst comprising hydrogenation metals and a support comprising beta zeolite. The hydrogenation metals comprise from about 0.1 percent by weight to about 2.0 percent by weight each of palladium and platinum measured as a percentage of the catalyst. The beta zeolite comprises from about 1 ppm by weight to about 3.0 percent by weight sodium calculated as a percentage of said beta zeolite.

A process for the hydrogenation of a hydrocarbon feedstock consisting essentially of distillate hydrocarbon boiling between about 150.degree. F. and 700.degree. F. at atmospheric pressure which comprises reacting said feedstock with hydrogen at hydrogenation conditions comprising a reaction temperature ranging from about 400.degree. F. to about 750.degree. F. and a reaction pressure ranging from about 300 psig to about 2000 psig in the presence of a catalyst comprising hydrogenation metals and a support comprising beta zeolite, said hydrogenation metals comprising from about 0.1 percent by weight to about 2.0 percent by weight each of palladium and platinum and measured as a percentage of said catalyst, and said beta zeolite comprising sodium in an amount ranging from about 1 ppm by weight to about 2.0 percent by weight of said beta zeolite.
