Most likely increase, due to removing a predator of the krill would decrease the number of them dying from seal predation. also other organisms that eat krill population will increase due to less competition.
A newborn sperm whale is around 4 meters in length and weighs approximately 1000 kilograms or more. They grow very fast and to huge sizes.
Adult Male Sperm Whales can be as long as 20 meters. The average size is around 17 meters and they weigh 40 tonnes or more.
Adult Female Sperm whales are on an average 11 meters long and weigh around 14 tonnes.
In order to say afloat the huge whale needs to be as light as possible. It's skeleton has therefore evolved to be very light and can support the Whales bulk because of the support of the water i.e. upthrust.
Have you noticed when swimming that you feel lighter when supported by water?
When a Whale is beached on land it's skeleton is not strong enough to support it without the upthrust of the water and its organs get crushed leading to its death.

Though sperm whales are the most common type of whale that inhabits almost every ocean in the world, they are endangered because of hunting. Humans have been hunting Sperm Whales for nearly two centuries and have wiped out huge populations of this giant animal. They are hunted for their blubber and sperm oil.
Whales, dolphins and porpoises are all mammals (there is an unrelated fish also called the Dolphin or Dolphinfish). These mammals evolved from extinct hoofed carnivores and gradually adapted to an exclusively marine life. Their similarity in form to fish is an example of convergent evolution; anatomical similarity to land mammals confirms their true origins.
Currently, there is no good estimate for the total number of sperm whales worldwide. The best estimate, that there are between 200,000 and 1,500,000 sperm whales.
Females Sperm Whales stay in groups of about a dozen individuals along with their young. Males leave these "nursery pods" at somewhere between 4 and 21 years of age and join a "bachelor pod" with other males of similar age and size. As males grow older, they tend to break out into smaller groups, and the oldest males typically live solitary lives
Sperm Whales can live for nearly 70 years or more. Since they are gigantic animals and have no known predators (Except Man) after they are adults, they literally can live for as long as they can which should be around 70 years or so. Males are usually larger than females and may even live longer than them.

They rest on the surface and doze, while only half of their brain sleeps (they only close one eye). The other half must focus on breathing, and safety. (This is true in all whales and dolphins.)
Since a whale shark is really a shark rather than a whale (mammal) it does all its breathing through its gills. Although a whale shark can come to the surface, it does not need to do so in order to breath like a whale would. With that in mind, a whale shark can stay underwater from the moment it is born until the minute it dies of injury, disease, or old age. Since the life expectancy of a whale shark is around 70 years, that works out to be around 36,792,000 minutes.
Blue whales are usually about 30m long and Sperm whales are usually between 13 and 20m long. So Blue whales are usually 10-17m longer than sperm whales.
(This is just the average length of these whales, bigger and smaller specimens do exist)

Sperm whales have the largest brains of all living creatures at the moment (so even bigger than the Blue whale's brain). It weighs in at about 7,2 kilos.
