A method is described for the decomposition of oil in which one applies to oil a composition made of bacteria-containing, dealginated, partially dewatered kelp residue. The composition will have a water content no greater than 25%, preferably about 5%-10%. The composition material is maintained in contact with the oil with sufficient water to sustain the bacteria and for a period of time sufficient for the oil to be decomposed by the bacteria.
