Heavy oil feedstocks containing at least 20 ppm metals, particularly residuum feedstocks, are hydrodesulfurized using a catalyst prepared by impregnating Group VIb and Group VIII metals or metal compounds into a support comprising alumina wherein the support has at least 70 volume percent of its pore volume in pores having a diameter between 80 and 150 Angstroms and less than 3 volume percent of its pore volume in pores having a diameter above 1000 Angstroms. The catalyst preferably has at least 80 volume percent of its pore volume in pores having a diameter between 80 and 150 Angstroms and less than 1.5 volume percent of its pore volume in pores having a diameter above 1000 Angstroms. An especially outstanding hydrodesulfurization catalyst in terms of very low deactivation rate is attained by using an alumina support of the above pore size distribution or the above preferred pore size distribution and wherein the metals are impregnated into the catalyst in a single step impregnation using a solution of a cobalt or nickel salt and a heteropolymolybdic acid such as phosphomolybdic acid. |

DETAILED DESCRIPTION What is claimed is: 1. A catalyst composition having an improved catalyst life and suitable for use in hydrodesulfurizing a hydrocarbon feedstock containing organometallic compounds in an amount, calculated as metal in parts by weight, of at least 10 ppm, said composition comprising an alumina support, a Group VIb component and a Group VIII component, said components being selected from the group consisting of the metals, oxides and sulfides of the elements of Groups VIb and VIII, said support having a pore volume in the range from about 0. 5 to about 1. 1 cubic centimeters per gram and having at least 70 percent of said pore volume in pores having a diameter between 80 and 150 Angstroms and less than 3 percent of said pore volume in pores having a diameter above 1000 Angstroms, said pore size distribution for said support corresponding to values obtained by using mercury porosimetry. 2. A composition as in claim 1 further characterized in that at least 80 percent of said pore volume is in pores having a diameter between 80 and 150Angstroms and less than 1. 5 percent of said pore volume in pores having a diameter above 1000 Angstroms. 3. A composition as in claim 2 further characterized in that said amount of pore volume in pores having a diameter above 1000 Angstroms is less than 1 percent. 4. A composition as in claim 1 further characterized in that said elements are selected from the group consisting of cobalt, nickel and molybdenum. 5. A catalyst composition having an improved catalyst life and suitable for use in hydrodesulfurizing a hydrocarbon feedstock containing organometallic compounds in an amount, calculated as metal in parts by weight, of at least 10 ppm, said composition comprising a support consisting essentially of alumina, a Group VIb component and a Group VIII component, said components being selected from the group consisting of the metals, oxides and sulfides of the elements of Groups VIb and VIII, said support having a pore volume in the range from about 0
