A process for converting a heavy hydrocarbon fraction comprises treating the hydrocarbon feed in a hydroconversion section in the presence of hydrogen, the section comprising at least one three-phase reactor containing at least one ebullated bed hydroconversion catalyst, operating in liquid and gas riser mode, said reactor comprising at least one means for removing catalyst from said reactor and at least one means for adding fresh catalyst to said reactor. At least a portion of the hydroconverted liquid effluent is sent to an atmospheric distillation zone from which a distillate and an atmospheric residue are recovered; at least a portion of the atmospheric residue is sent to a vacuum distillation zone from which a vacuum distillate and a vacuum residue are recovered; at least a portion of the vacuum residue is sent to a deasphalting section from which a deasphalted hydrocarbon cut and residual asphalt are recovered; and at least a portion of the deasphalted hydrocarbon cut is sent to a hydrotreatment section from which a gas fraction, an atmospheric distillate and a heavier liquid fraction of the hydrotreated feed are produced by atmospheric distillation separation.

[ We claim:] [1.] A process for converting a heavy hydrocarbon fraction with a Conradson carbon of at least 10, a metal content of at least 50 ppm, a C.sub.7 asphaltene content of at least 1%, and a sulphur content of at least 0.5%, characterized in that it comprises the following steps:a) treating the hydrocarbon feed in a hydroconversion section in the presence of hydrogen, the section comprising at least one three-phase reactor containing at least one ebullated bed hydroconversion catalyst operating in liquid and gas riser mode, said reactor comprising at least one means for removing catalyst from said reactor and at least one means for adding fresh catalyst to said reactor, under conditions which will produce a liquid effluent with a reduced Conradson carbon, metal content and sulphur content;b) sending at least a portion of the hydroconverted liquid effluent from step a) to an atmospheric distillation zone, from which an atmospheric distillate and an atmospheric residue are recovered;c) sending at least a portion of the atmospheric residue from step b) to a vacuum distillation zone from which a vacuum distillate and a vacuum residue are recovered;d) sending at least a portion of the vacuum residue from step c) to a deasphalting section in which it is treated in an extraction section using a solvent under conditions such that a deasphalted hydrocarbon cut and residual asphalt are recovered;e) sending at least a portion of the deasphalted hydrocarbon cut from step d) to a hydrotreatment section in which it is hydrotreated under conditions such that, in particular, the metal content, sulphur content and Conradson carbon are reduced, and after separation, a gas fraction, an atmospheric distillate and a heavier liquid fraction of the hydrotreated feed are produced by atmospheric distillation, in which at least a portion of the heavier liquid fraction of the hydrotreated feed from step e) is sent to a catalytic cracking section (step f) in which it is treated under conditions such that a gaseous fraction, a gasoline fraction, a gas oil fraction and a slurry fraction are produced.
