Abstract

Process and plant for hydrotreating a liquid oil feedstock stream comprising the steps of i) conducting the liquid oil feedstock stream to a stabilization step by reacting the liquid oil stream with hydrogen in the presence of a catalyst for producing a stabilized composition, and separating therefrom: a stabilized stream comprising a gas phase, and a stabilized liquid oil stream; ii) providing a main hydrodeoxygenation (HDO) step, comprising: ii)-1 conducting at least a portion of said stabilized stream comprising a gas phase, or a stabilized feed stream combining at least a portion of said stabilized stream comprising a gas phase and a portion of said stabilized liquid oil stream, to a main hydrodeoxygenation (HDO) step in a first bed active in hydrodeoxygenation (HDO), thereby producing a first main hydrotreated effluent stream; ii-2) combining at least a portion of said stabilized liquid oil stream with said first main hydrotreated effl-uent stream, thereby producing a first mixed stabilized gas-liquid oil stream; ii-3) con-ducting said first mixed stabilized gas-liquid oil stream to a subsequent bed active in HDO, thereby producing a main hydrotreated effluent stream.
