Disclosed is a process and system for upgrading low-quality oils. The upgrading process comprises: (1) subjecting a low-quality oil to a conversion reaction in the presence of hydrogen and optionally in the presence of a conversion catalyst to obtain a conversion product, (2) processing the conversion product to obtain a first processed product, wherein the first processed product comprises a specific amount of a special component, and (3) subjecting the first processed product to extraction separation to obtain an upgraded oil and a pitch. The upgrading process and the upgrading system have the advantages of stable operation, high upgrading efficiency, environmental friendliness, low coke yield or high yield of upgraded oil.
