I think that you are unfortunate, probably the water went into a massive obsidian underworld house and evaporated there. And to answer your question, yes. I do 3-4 blocks wide hellevators, but not necessary to be in the ocean - if you have the resources, just do inlet / outlet pumps. I did it and got a total of 1526 obsidian, legitimately.
