Your new avatar looks a lot better ^_^

Nope, there's no ocean according to the article:

"It would still look like solid rock to you," Wysession told LiveScience. "You would have to put it in the lab to find the water in it."

Although they appear solid, the composition of some ocean floor rocks is up to 15 percent water. "The water molecules are actually stuck in the mineral structure of the rock," Wysession explained. "As you heat this up, it eventually dehydrates. It's like taking clay and firing it to get all the water out."

It's saturated rock…
