The catalytic composition, of trimetallic type, is prepared from an alumina support of high surface area to which a solution containing a metal precursor of an element of group VIB is added, followed by other solution that contains one of the precursors of the active metallic phase, a solution containing another of the precursors of the active metallic phase from group VIB, a metal promoter of group VIII and an additive promoter of acidity from group VB, and finally another solution containing a metal of group VIB, a metal of Group VIII and an organic compound, the used route promotes the preferential formation of well dispersed structures of the used metals on the support of porous alumina, less refractory to sulfidation, with high stacking and short lengths of metal sulfides formed in the resulting hydrodesulfurization catalyst. In the formulation, at least a percentage, but not all the Mo is replaced by W, in a Mo/W molar ratio of 0.6 to 2.0.
