The hydrocracking of residual oils and tars. Part 2 : The catalytic hydrocracking of Athabasca bitumen / E.C. McColgan and B.I. Parsons, Fuels Research Centre.: M38-1/253-1972E-PDF

"The report describes a bench-scale investigation of the catalytic hydrocracking of the +975 °F residuum in Athabasca bitumen with a view to a) increasing the yield of liquid hydrocarbon obtained compared with coking or purely thermal hydrocracking methods, and b) reducing the extent of on-site treatment required to produce relatively clean, stable distillates suitable for transmission to more central areas"--Abstract, page i.
