ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A process for producing additional liquid products from a heavy hydrocarbon material by vis-breaking of a separated asphaltene-containing fraction under controlled conditions of temperature and pressure. The asphaltene- containing fraction is obtained by contacting the heavy hydrocarbon material with a first solvent under elevated temperature and pressure conditions to separate the asphal- tenes as a heavy phase from the remainder of the heavy hydro- carbon material. The products of the vis-breaking operation comprise distillable and substantially nondistillable liquid products in association with a residue including organo- metallic compounds. The distillable and substantially non- distillable liquid products then are separated from the residue. The distillable products can be separated by distillation. The nondistillable products are separated from the residue employing a second solvent maintained under elevated temperature and pressure conditions and then recov- ered as a liquid phase product.
