The limit for no decompression amatuer sport diving with either SSA or  PADI certification is 42m. Professional divers can and do go much, much  deeper using Heliox mixtures. 48m is a walk in the park for a  professional in the good visibility apparent from the photos I've seen  of the wreck.
My wife and I used to dive inside ship-wrecks on air at those depths pre-kids. It was not a problem back then.
