Locating and recovery of the aircraft from 700m water depth is likely to be well outside the capability of PNG resources. It will require external assistance. I hope the PNG Accident Investigation Board and ATSB can enlist appropriate assistance to recover the aircraft. From the above account of Lloyd's MAYDAY call he did not indicate the nature of the emergency, whether it was engine failure or some other type of malfunction.
