The fire inside an oil tanker in the Gadani Ship-breaking yard was put out on the fourth day.
Rescue work inside the ship cannot begin as the metal plates are scalding.
At least 20 people were killed and 58 injured when its fuel tank exploded on November 1.
The MTSS ship with a Nairobi flag had reached Gadani carrying 19 Indian crew members on October 22. The same day the crew left the ship, sources said.
