So IMO there are a few options:

1. Let it burn out and hope it does not reach the fuel while doing so.

2. flood the holds with fire water to cool the battery packs enough to extinguish the massive internal fires.


#1 has risk because the hull of the ship is burned through in several places already and any rough seas could stress the heat damaged hull sufficient to get her to take on water and risk splitting her in two.

#2 has risk because to get enough water in her to cool the fires could also require the fire tugs to sink her through the addition of fire water. Here is where the already present list factors in. She will continue to list to a capsize position.
