A process for the preparation of gas oil from an asphaltenes-containing hydrocarbon oil by thermal cracking, wherein (a) thermally cracking said asphaltenes-containing oil in a first thermal cracking zone at a temperature from about 400°to 500°C. and a pressure from about 1 to about 30 bar, to obtain a first cracked product comprising 10 to 30 %w on said asphaltenes-containing oil of material boiling at a temperature lower than the boiling range of said asphaltenes-containing oil, (b) separating the product of step (a) by flashing in a phase separation zone into (i) a light fraction boiling substantially below 500°C. which contains in addition to components boiling below 350°C., additional components boiling between 350°and 500°C., and (ii) a heavy fraction boiling substantially above 350°C. which contains in addition to components boiling above 500°C., additional components boiling between 350°and 500°C., (c) separating the heavy fraction from step (b) by fractionation distillation in a vacuum distillation zone into a vacuum distillate fraction and a vacuum residue, (d) deasphalting the vacuum residue from step (c) in a deasphalting zone into a deasphalted oil and bitumen, (e) separating the light fraction from step (b) by fractionation distillation in an atmospheric distillation zone into at least one light distillate fraction, a heavy distillate fraction and an atmospheric residual fraction, (f) passing the vacuum distillate fraction from step (c) and the deasphalted oil from step (d) to step (g), (g) thermally cracking the heavy distillate fraction from step (e) in admixture with components from step (f) in a second thermal cracking zone at a temperature from about 400°to 550°C. and a pressure from about 1 to 30 bar to obtain a second cracked product comprising from 20 to 75 %w of components boiling below the boiling range of said asphaltenes-containing oil feed to step (a), and (h) withdrawing said at least one light distillate fraction from step (e).
