Disclosed are hybrid Fischer-Tropsch catalysts containing cobalt deposited on hybrid supports. The hybrid supports contain an acidic zeolite component and a silica-containing material. It has been found that the use of the hybrid Fischer-Tropsch catalysts in synthesis gas conversion reactions results in high C5+ productivity, high CO conversion rates and low olefin formation. L'invention porte sur des catalyseurs de Fischer-Tropsch hybrides contenant du cobalt déposé sur des supports hybrides. Les supports hybrides contiennent un composant zéolite acide et un matériau contenant de la silice. Il a été trouvé que l'utilisation des catalyseurs de Fischer-Tropsch hybrides dans des réactions de conversion de gaz de synthèse a pour résultat une productivité de C5+ élevée, des taux de conversion du CO élevés et une faible formation d'oléfines.
