I think the methane explanation is the most logical idea. They know there is large amounts of methane pockets out there. When these pocket rupture they cause large amounts of bubbles on the surface and those bubbles cause ships to lose buoyancy and will sink instantly like a rock.

They've done tests on this and shown how fast a ship will sink in this situation and its extremely fast. Added to this, the methane will enter the air and aircraft flying through that area will have engine failure due to no oxygen for the engine to run. This can also explain no maydays because the people are passed out or dead due to no oxygen.
