@NPR had an article the other day about a submarine rescue in those sorts of circumstances: https://www.npr.org/2023/06/20/1183249112/missing-titanic-submarine-rescue-pisces-iii

It was a small (phone booth-ish?) two-man sub stranded for three days back in 1973. The two men conserved oxygen by not speaking or moving and were successfully recovered.
