Didn't they just weld the hull back together fairly recently?
Uh
I think I read an article that stated they recently replaced their batteries. I believe there was a complaint about the work going to the lowest bidder with a shoddy record.
It is common practice to cut the hull for battery replacement. The USN does the same thing.

These guys knew they were going to die. 1200ft is deeper than most subs operate under normal conditions. They likely had some sort of emergency whether it was loss of propulsion or flooding from a failed seal/valve/weld
ARA San Juan was built in 1983 FYI
