The octane number of a cracked naphtha can be significantly improved in a catalytic cracking unit, without significant decrease in naphtha yield, by maintaining certain critical concentrations of metals on the catalyst, suitably by blending or adding a heavy metals-containing component to the gas oil feed. Suitably, in a catalytic cracking process unit wherein a gas oil feed is cracked in a cracking reactor (zone) at an elevated temperature in the presence of a cracking catalyst, the cracking catalyst is regenerated in a regenerator (regeneration zone) by burning coke off the catalyst, and catalyst is circulated between the reactor and regenerator, sufficient of a metals-containing heavy feedstock is admixed, intermittantly or continuously, with the gas oil feed to deposit metals on said catalyst and raise the metals-content of said catalyst to a level of from about 1500 to about 6000 parts per million, preferably from about 2500 to about 4000 parts per million expressed as equivalent nickel, based on the weight of the catalyst, and said metals level is maintained on the catalyst throughout the operation by withdrawing high metals-containing catalyst and adding low metals-containing catalyst to the regenerator. |

DETAILED DESCRIPTION Having described the invention, what is claimed is: 1.
In a catalytic cracking process unit wherein a gas oil feed is cracked in a cracking zone at an elevated temperature in the presence of a cracking catalyst, the cracking catalyst is regenerated in a regeneration zone by burning coke off the catalyst, and catalyst is circulated between the cracking zone and the regeneration zone, the improvement for obtaining a naphtha product of improved octane number comprising introducing sufficient of a nickel and vanadium metals-containing heavy feedstock with said gas oil feed introduced into the cracking zone to deposit nickel and vanadium metals on said catalyst and raise the nickel and vanadium metals-content of said catalyst to a level ranging from about 1500 to about 6000 parts per million of said metals expressed as equivalent nickel, based on the weight of the catalyst, and maintaining said nickel and vanadium metals level on the catalyst by withdrawing high nickel and vanadium metals-containing catalyst and adding low nickel and vanadium metals-containing catalyst to the regeneration zone.
2.
The process of claim 1 wherein the metals-containing heavy feedstock added to said gas oil feed is one having a final boiling point above 1050.
degree.
F.
3.
The process of claim 1 wherein the metals-containing heavy feedstock is added to said gas oil feed prior to the introduction of the feed into the cracking zone.
4.
The process of claim 1 wherein the metals-containing heavy feedstock added with said gas oil feed is one characterized as containing from about 2 to about 1000 ppm of equivalent nickel, based on the weight of said heavy feedstock.
5.
The process of claim 1 wherein the metals-containing heavy feedstock is continuously added with said gas oil feed in amounts ranging above 0 percent to about 25 percent, based on the volume of the gas oil, fresh catalyst is added to the unit at a rate of about 0.
08 pounds to about 0.
50 pounds per hour per pound of gas oil feed processed, and catalyst withdrawn at a rate sufficient to maintain the unit in balance
