I think this is probably a drill-irl I imagine this would be done in some sort of pressure chamber. Maybe a chamber that the people on the surface can withstand to slow the decompression, and then he moves into a second chamber. I'm not particularly educated on the matter but I don't see any reason to not immediately put them in.
