A process for upgrading vacuum residuum and vacuum gas oil hydrocarbons is disclosed. The process may include: contacting a heavy distillate hydrocarbon fraction and hydrogen with a zeolite selective hydrocracking catalyst in a first ebullated bed hydrocracking reaction zone to convert at least a portion of the vacuum gas oil to lighter hydrocarbons. Contacting a residuum hydrocarbon fraction and hydrogen with a non-zeolite base metal hydroconversion catalyst in a second ebullated bed hydroconversion reaction zone may produce a vapor stream containing unconverted hydrogen, acid gases and volatilized hydrocarbons which may be fed along with the vacuum gas oil in the first ebullated bed hydrocracking zone.

1. A process for upgrading residuum hydrocarbons and heavy distillate feedstocks, the process comprising: contacting residuum hydrocarbons and hydrogen with a non-zeolitic base metal hydroconversion catalyst in an ebullated bed hydroconversion reactor system to produce a first effluent;recovering the first effluent from the ebullated bed hydroconversion reactor system;fractionating the first effluent to recover a first liquid product and a first vapor product;contacting counter-currently the first vapor product with a hydrocarbon stream in an absorption tower to produce a second vapor product and a second liquid product, wherein the second vapor product is lean in middle distillate content and comprises gasoil range hydrocarbons;separating the second vapor product from the second liquid product;contacting the second vapor product and a heavy distillate feedstock with a zeolitic selective hydrocracking catalyst in an ebullated bed hydrocracking reactor system to produce a second effluent;recovering the second effluent from the ebullated bed hydrocracking reactor system; andfractionating the second effluent to recover one or more hydrocarbon fractions. 2. The process of claim 1, further comprising heating the residuum hydrocarbons and hydrogen prior to contact with the non-zeolitic base metal hydroconversion catalyst. 3. The process of claim 1, wherein the residuum hydrocarbons are selected from the group consisting of petroleum crudes, shale oils, tar sands bitumen, coal-derived oils, tall oils, black oils, organic wastes, biomass-derived liquids, any heavy oil residuum stream, and mixtures thereof. 4. The process of claim 1, wherein the heavy distillate feedstock is selected from the group consisting of atmospheric gas oil, light vacuum gas oil, heavy vacuum gas oil, heavy coker gas oil, FCC cycle oil, deasphalted oil, and mixtures thereof, wherein the heavy distillate feedstock is derivable from petroleum, bitumen, kerogen, biomass, or organic waste sources. 5. The process of claim 4, wherein the residuum hydrocarbons are derived from a crude, and wherein the heavy distillate feedstock is a virgin vacuum gas oil topped off of the crude. 6. The process of claim 1, wherein the residuum hydrocarbons comprise at least one of petroleum atmospheric residua, vacuum residua, deasphalted oils, deasphalter pitch, hydrocracked atmospheric tower or vacuum tower bottoms, fluid catalytically cracked (FCC) slurry oils, residuum derived from shale-derived oils, coal-derived oils, bio-derived crude oils, tar sands bitumen, tall oils, and black oils. 7. The process of claim 1, wherein the contacting in the ebullated bed hydroconversion reactor system comprises operating the ebullated bed hydroconversion reactor system at a reactor severity to achieve a hydrocarbon conversion of at least about 50 wt % and a reduction in metal content of at least 50 wt %, wherein the hydrocarbon conversion is defined as the wt % decrease in materials boiling higher than 480° C. in an ASTM D1160 distillation for heavy hydrocarbon mixtures. 8. The process of claim 1, wherein the contacting in the ebullated bed hydrocracking reactor system comprises operating the ebullated bed hydrocracking reactor system at a reactor severity to achieve a hydrocarbon conversion of at least about 60 wt %, wherein the hydrocarbon conversion is defined as the formation of materials boiling less than about 370° C. in an ASTM D1160 distillation for heavy hydrocarbon mixtures. 9. The process of claim 1, wherein the zeolitic selective hydrocracking catalyst has a substrate consisting essentially of at least one of H Y-zeolite, H ZSM-5, mordenite, erionite, ultrastable faujasite, USY zeolite, Beta zeolite, ZSM-11, ZSM-22, ZSM-23, ZSM-35, ZSM-48, ZSM-57, ZSM-34, REY molecular sieve, or REHY molecular sieve. 10. The process of claim 9, wherein the zeolitic selective hydrocracking catalyst further comprises one or more of cobalt, molybdenum, tungsten, nickel, platinum, or palladium. 11. The process of claim 1, wherein the hydrocarbon stream boils in the atmospheric or vacuum gas oil range. 12. A process for upgrading heavy distillate feedstocks, the process comprising: contacting a first vapor fraction with a hydrocarbon stream in an absorption tower in counter current fashion to form a second vapor fraction and a second liquid fraction;contacting the second vapor fraction, heavy distillate feedstocks, and hydrogen with a zeolitic selective hydrocracking catalyst in an ebullated bed hydrocracking reactor system to produce an effluent;recovering the effluent from the ebullated bed hydrocracking reactor system; andfractionating the effluent from the ebullated bed hydrocracking reactor system to recover one or more hydrocarbon fractions. 13. The process of claim 12, further comprising: contacting a residuum hydrocarbon feedstock and hydrogen with a non-zeolitic base metal hydroconversion catalyst in an ebullated bed hydroconversion reactor system to produce a first effluent;recovering the first effluent from the ebullated bed hydroconversion reactor;fractionating the first effluent to recover a first liquid fraction and the first vapor fraction. 14. The process of claim 12, wherein the zeolitic selective hydrocracking catalyst is manufactured to be fluidizable and attrition resistant under a set of reaction conditions in the ebullated bed hydrocracking reactor system. 15. The process of claim 14, wherein the zeolitic selective hydrocracking catalyst comprises a noble metal incorporated onto a zeolitic support.
