A process and apparatus for hydrocracking a hydrocarbon stream strips a liquid hydrocracked stream in a reboiled stripping column to provide a stripping overhead stream and a stripped stream and a vaporized stripping overhead stream has LPG hydrocarbons absorbed from it with an absorbent stream comprising the stripped stream. No equipment is needed to remove water from the absorbent stream due to the lack of steam added during stripping with a reboil column.
