If this is the case, it certainly could explain why we find such huge
biomass deposits that turned into coal and oil. Imagine the enormous
waves of ocean water, perhaps kilometers high, that would pour in over
the continents. They would sweep away everything in their path, washing
billions of tons of biomass against the sides of mountain ranges,

Actually, they would be washed into the basins of the lakes and
oceans. Receding water would have dragged the biomass back away from
the mountains.

covering them with silt, dirt, rocks and everything else. With such
extreme and rapid tectonic activity

Nothing to do with tectonics.


, there would surely be lots of
volcanism as well.

No mention of that in the bible.

The intense heat from volcanism and compression, and
the pressure from the water, could form enormous coal and oil deposits
very quickly.

It takes longer than 6000 years to form oil and coal.

The blood and other liquids squeezed from the crushed
animal mass

Much of the biomass would have been rooted plant lifeforms. These
would not have been swept away but would have been fossilised in situ.
Where are they?

could have collected and risen to the top to form salt domes.

There would have been so little salt in the animal biomass that there
would not have been enough to form even a small salt dome.

So again you opt for a far-fetched fallacious option.
