You're right..."JDZ Bomu-1 will be drilled using the semi-submersible drilling rig Sedco-702 in a water depth of approximately 1,646 metres (5,400 feet) and down to a total depth of approximately 3,536 metres (11,600 feet) subsea. It is expected that information from the well will considerably aid in understanding the geology and hydrocarbon potential of this and other prospects in the Block. Final well results should be available in fourth quarter 2009. "

I guess sub-sea out there is not the same as here. If I drill 6,000 sub-sea here, I have to drill 6,900 ft because of 900 ft elevation.
