Meet the Managing Director
Joao C. Fernandes, BSc EE, TÜV FS Eng (SIS) — Principal Consultant & Managing Director
With over 30 years in Kuwait’s oil & gas sector, Joao “Johnny” Fernandes is a specialist in Functional Safety and Process Safety Management (PSM). A graduate of Texas Tech University and a TÜV Rheinland Certified Functional Safety Engineer, he has worked across major facilities for KOC, KNPC and EQUATE, from design and commissioning to operations.

His career spans securing and leading the $200M+ TL-4 ICSS scope at ABB, setting up KOC’s first 5-year Fire & Gas O&M contract, and, more recently, leading process-safety reviews within KOC’s PSM organisation. As founder of ADIN Industrial Controls, he combines hands-on field engineering with modern tools, from SIL verification and LOPA to IIoT cloud integration of legacy control systems.

Outside engineering, Joao is a musician with a keen interest in audio engineering and music production, and a long-distance runner. Both reflect the same values he brings to his work: precision, endurance and consistency.
