There are so many different depth levels of the ocean, it is pretty much impossible to calculate the average depth unless every part of the ocean is measured.

Update: The average is 3,700 meters.

Wikipedia gives the average depth of the World Ocean (that's taking all the Oceans as one continuous body of water) as 3,790 metres (12,430 ft),
