Fuels and/or fuel blending components can be formed from hydroprocessing of high lift deasphalted oil. The high lift deasphalting can correspond to solvent deasphalting to produce a yield of deasphalted oil of at least 50 wt%, or at least 65 wt%, or at least 75 wt%. The resulting fuels and/or fuel blending components formed by hydroprocessing of the deasphalted oil can have unexpectedly high naphthene content and/or density. Additionally or alternately, deasphalted oil generated from high lift deasphalting represents a disadvantaged feed that can be converted into a fuel and/or fuel blending components with unexpected compositions. Additionally or alternately, the resulting fuels and/or fuel blending components can have unexpectedly beneficial cold flow properties, such as cloud point, pour point, and/or freeze point. |
