Miller, J T

A process is described for the hydrocracking of a feedstock comprising a light catalytic cycle oil having a boiling range from about 350/sup 0/F to about 700/sup 0/F which comprises reacting the feedstock with hydrogen at hydrocracking conversion conditions in the presence of a catalyst comprising a hydrogenation component comprising a nickel component and a tungsten component wherein the nickel component is present in an amount ranging from about 1 to abut 10 wt.% and the tungsten component is present in an amount ranging from about 10 to about 30 wt.%, both calculated as oxides and based on the total catalyst weight and a support component consisting essentially of a crystalline molecular sieve component and an alumina component wherein the crystalline molecular sieve component is present in the support in an amount less than about 40 wt.% and greater than about 10 wt.% based on the total weight of the support component.
