1. In a thermal cracking process for converting heavy petroleum residual oil to lighter distillate products in which the thermal cracking of the residual oil takes place in the presence of a hydrogen donor diluent, the improvement wherein the hydrogen donor diluent comprises hydrotreated heavy premium coker gas-oil produced in a premium coking operation utilizing a coke drum pressure of from 10 to 150 psig, a coker furnace transfer line temperature of from 900°
- to 960°
F and a coke drum overhead vapor temperature of from 825°
to 900°
F and operated at conditions such that the coke produced has a coefficient of thermal expansion of about 5 times 10-7 /°
C or less.
