Torlek:
Great Whites and the occasional mako can range as far north as Newfoundland. The waters off Nova Scotia are the natural range of the smaller porbeagle which could still eat you given enough time. Also, we're dealing with a scientific collective that operates on an offshore rig. Who's to say they aren't going full Deep Blue Sea out there? Also, Claire's discounting the possibility of weird gravitational anomalies, hyper-intelligent octopi and portals to the dimension where evil Hanners lives.

And admittedly this is a alternate universe from ours ANYWAY...
SmilingCat:
Claire's scenario is... actually very reasonable.
The ocean is not your friend, and literally everything about it wants to kill you.
And given the kind of organization we've seen out of these people so far, do we really think they put a lot of thought into maintenance, damage control, emergency preparedness, and lifesaving procedure?
EDIT: Though to be fair she's much more likely to die of drowing, hypothermia, or hypothermia then drowning than a shark attack.

There are some things that just want to suck your blood (most are copopods).

"Claire isn't being imaginative enough..."
"Trapped on a research platform that, owing to some weird experimental glitch, is simultaneously freezing and burning, and is sinking because the hungry hyper-intelligent sharks have sabotaged it"
