Killer Whales (Orca) spend most of their time in the top 20 meters of water, occasionally diving as deep as 200 meters to hunt bottom-dwelling fish. There is one report of an Orca becoming tangled in a cable at over 1000 meters, so clearly they can dive deeper if they want or need to.
The question is why they would want to. Killer whales live on animals that generally frequent shallow water, such as seals, sea lions and other pinnipeds, and occasionally large fish. They sleep and breed in shallow water as well.
