Elephant seals do deep dives to forage for food. The energy used by the seals in diving

Question:

Elephant seals do deep dives to forage for food. The energy used by the seals in diving depends on their body composition; for example, fatter seals use less energy to swim to the surface at the end of a dive, allowing them to take longer, more productive dives. Explain why you’d expect this to be the case.
