1. A process for upgrading a crude oil comprising:
contacting the crude oil with one or more hydroprocessing catalysts to produce a hydroprocessed effluent wherein the crude oil has an API gravity from 30 to 35; and
contacting the hydroprocessed effluent with a high-severity fluidized catalytic cracking (HS-FCC) catalyst composition in a high-severity FCC (HS-FCC) unit to produce cracked effluent comprising olefins, aromatic compounds, or both, wherein the HS-FCC unit operates at a temperature of greater than or equal to 580° C., a weight ratio of the HS-FCC catalyst composition to the crude oil of from 2:1 to 6:1, and a residence time of from 0.1 seconds to 60 seconds, wherein:
the HS-FCC catalyst composition comprises:
ultrastable Y-type zeolite (USY zeolite) impregnated with lanthanum;
nano-ZSM-5 zeolite impregnated with phosphorous, where the nano-ZSM-5 zeolite has an average particle size of from 0.01 μm to 0.2 μm;
an alumina binder;
colloidal silica; and
a matrix material comprising Kaolin clay.
