(ROUGH CUT ONLY - NO REPORTER NARRATION)
Iranian state television showed on Monday amateur footage of a team of workers on board a ship taking fuel from Dubai to Iran's Bandar Abbas port being rescued.
The team of documentary-makers who were filming in the waters of Iran's southern Bushehr province, involved in the rescue operation, asked the crew if they were "safe" as they approached the ship.
The vessel -- found in flames -- was carrying a nine-man team.
The narrator said the ship caught fire as a result of a technical problem in the engine room, adding it took "one and a half hours to put the fire out".
