FIELD: oil and gas industry.

SUBSTANCE: for biorecycling of oil sludge and oil production and processing waste by means of soil populating with natural black-soil-forming organisms a mixture is prepared with an initial composition of 26-30% of oil sludge, 26-30% of liquid oil sludge and the remaining part of organic domestic waste and/or saw dust, the mixture is infused within 20-24 hours at a temperature of 20-25°C for further populating with earthworms of the first generation, the mixture is withhold within 17-30 days till the earthworms of the second and third generations appear for the purpose of the sludge-contaminated soil treatment. The earthworms of the second and third generations grown in a hothouse conditions by adaption of the earthworms of the first generation to the above mixture are introduced to the contaminated soil. At that introduction of the earthworms of the second and third generations is made at a volume ratio of soil and the mixture equal to 10-15:1.
