Don't think the water depth fits your idea there.*l am not convinced that is a fruitful area for search, but who knows?
*Since my last ASW mission was a few years ago, I may have missed some developments in shallow water uses of various towed arrays.
As to the report from the oil rig ... not sure what to make of that. Not as confident as yourself regarding its fit to the missing aircraft.
