The joint cracking of mechanically activated oil shale and petroleum residue was studied. The introduction of oil shale allowed to intensify the process of destruction of high-molecular components of the petroleum residue. In the obtained liquid thermolysis products, oils predominate from 40,2 to 81,1% wt. With an increase in the share of oil shale in the cracking products, the proportion of asphaltenes decreases from 4,2 to 2,8% wt, and of tar from 6,7 to 4,8% wt. In gaseous products, the proportion of carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide increases markedly. The introduction of mechanically activated oil shale also affects the fractional composition of thermolysis products; the proportion of gasoline (IPB – 200 °С) and diesel fractions (200–360 °С) changes
