The study found that the dominant microbe in the dispersed Gulf of Mexico oil plume was a new species, closely related to members of Oceanospirillales family. Based on these results, the research team suggests that the potential exists for intrinsic bioremediation of the oil plume in the deep-water column without substantial oxygen drawdown.
