A process for manufacturing a lubricating base oil, comprising dewaxing a substantially paraffinic wax feed by hydroisomerization dewaxing using a shape selective intermediate pore size molecular sieve under hydroisomerization conditions including a hydrogen to feed ratio from about 712.4 to about 3562 liter H<SUB>2</SUB>/liter oil, whereby a lubricating base oil is produced having a)a total weight percent of molecules with cycloparaffinic functionality greater than 10, and b) a ratio of weight percent molecules with monocycloparaffinic functionality to weight percent molecules with multicycloparaffinic functionality greater than 30. Also a method for producing a base oil having a high ratio of weight percent molecules with monocycloparaffinic functionality to weight percent molecules with multicycloparaffinic functionality by hydroisomerization dewaxing a selected Fischer-Tropsch wax under hydroisomerization conditions including a hydrogen to feed ratio from about 712.4 to about 3562 liter H<SUB>2</SUB>/liter oil. Also a lubricating base oil manufacturing plant.
