The invention relates to a process for producing high-quality hydrocarbon base oil particularly of biological origin. The process of the invention comprises aldol condensation, hydrodeoxygenation, and isomerization steps. Aldehydes and/or ketones, preferably of biological origin are used as the feedstock. L'invention concerne un procédé de production d'une huile à base d'hydrocarbure de haute qualité d'origine biologique. Le procédé de cette invention comprend des étapes de condensation, d'hydrodésoxygénation et d'isomérisation d'aldol. Des aldéhydes et/ou cétones, de préférence, d'origine biologique sont utilisés en tant que charge.
