The rig had two submersibles. Why didn’t they just take those to get out right from the start? Surely being cramped or having to make a couple of trips is better than dying.

* ''Deep Core'' is submerged in about 1000 or so feet of water. Lindsey mentions earlier in the film that it would take three weeks to undergo the decompression process to avoid a painful death from the bends (nitrogen bubbles forming in tissues), so evacuating the ship with the submersibles is not a viable option. Even if the ''Benthic Explorer'' had decompression chambers topside, due to the hurricane, it would be functionally impossible to recover the subs and get everyone in the chambers quickly enough before death.
