The upgraded raffmate and/or extract in products can have a reduced or minimized concentration of sulfur, nitrogen, metals, or a combination thereof. The reduced or minimized nitrogen, and/or metals can be achieved by hydrotreating low levels of feed conversion. Optionally, the feed can also dewaxed, such as hydrotreatment conditions by catalytic dewaxing or by 0 concentration of sulfur, ei --.... corresponding to relatively a suitable feed under IN solvent dewaxing. Because excessive aromatic saturation is not desired, the pressure for hydrotreatment (and optional dewaxing) can C 1-1 be ei 500 psig (-3.4 MPa) to 1200 psig (-8.2 MPa).
