Currently merchant vessels are strictly limited to carrying cargoes like crude oil on a singular outbound journey, returning with empty holds. The proposed Exagenica Research HYDRA project seeks to test the conceptual viability of a novel maritime engineering solution which, if proven, would enable bulk carriers, crude oil, product and chemical tankers to be multi-purposed in terms of the type of cargoes they can carry. This would facilitate transportation on inbound journeys, potentially transforming shipping economics and its socio-environmental impact.The HYDRA solution consists of an innovative, pre-fabricated conversion system designed by Exagenica Research. When implemented across the respective hold areas of a tanker, the HYDRA system will extend the ship's capability to carry more varied cargoes without the need to undergo expensive or lengthy cleaning.In addition to dramatically improving transportation versatility, the HYDRA conversion has also been designed to improve the structural integrity of hold areas, minimising the potential environmental damage caused by a hull breach while transporting liquid cargoes such as crude oil.

目前，商船被严格限制在一次单独的出境旅行中运载原油等货物，返回时空舱。拟议的Exagenica Research HYDROGEN项目旨在测试一种新型海事工程解决方案的概念可行性，如果得到证实，该解决方案将使散货船，原油，产品和化学品油轮能够在它们可以运载的货物类型方面实现多用途。这将促进入境行程的运输，可能改变航运经济及其社会环境影响。HYDRONIC解决方案由Exagenica Research设计的创新预制转换系统组成。当在油轮的各个货舱区域实施HYDRONIC系统时，HYDRONIC系统将扩展船舶的能力，以运载更多种类的货物，而无需进行昂贵或冗长的清洁。除了显著提高运输的多功能性外，HYDRONIC转换还旨在提高货舱区域的结构完整性，最小化在运输液体货物例如原油时由船体破裂引起的潜在环境损害。
