This invention provides a method for hydrogenation of hydrocarbon oils. The method comprises contacting hydrocarbon oils with the catalyst in the presence of hydrogen for hydrogenation. The catalyst contains carrier, nickel oxide 1-10 wt. %, molybdena oxide and tungsten oxide 10-50 wt. %. The molar ratio of tungsten oxide to molybdena oxide is 2.6-30. The method has such advantage as obviously improved hydrogenation effects.
