Aerospace Mindset for
Energy Projects
Transferring aerospace-grade excellence to Energy Transition, Oil & Gas, and EPC projects — where failure is not an option.
Why Aerospace?
Why Now?
Aerospace taught us to build systems that never fail.
Now energy projects demand that same mindset.
I bring that standard to your EPC and transition operations.

About
About Damian Cambronero
I’m a systems integration specialist with over 20 years of experience in aerospace and oil & gas.
My work spans engine assembly for the Eurofighter (Rolls-Royce), quality leadership in Shell Prelude FLNG (subsea), and implementation of QMS/SMS frameworks in greenfield projects across Europe and Southeast Asia.
What makes me different:
While many focus on operations, I focus on the integrity of the systems that make operations possible — applying the discipline of aerospace to the next generation of energy infrastructure.
Core Narrative – My Personal Journey
“This is embedded in my DNA. I began as an aerospace engineer, later certifying complex systems like the EJ200 engine — where failures don’t just happen; they are built through invisible chains across disconnected functions.With systems engineering training, I learned to trace and connect those signals — and when I joined Shell Prelude, I saw the same issue in energy: operational silos working in parallel, blind to each other.What would have triggered an alert in aerospace, was just another data point in EPC.That’s when I realized — my role is to integrate, anticipate, and protect complex projects from within.”
Expertise
Translating high-integrity systems into energy and infrastructure projects.
Quality Management Systems (QMS)
I’ve built QMS from scratch for greenfield aerospace lines and EPC megaprojects — with audit-readiness, integrated KPI dashboards, and data-driven continuous improvement.
Safety Management Systems (SMS)
Focused on proactive risk identification, safety performance indicators, and organizational maturity — beyond mere compliance.
Risk Management & Compliance
From military engine certification under NATO protocols to subsea EPC execution in Shell Prelude, I ensure technical and legal integrity in high-risk environments.
Systems Integration
I help energy and infrastructure projects apply this interdisciplinary systems logic to enhance transparency, governance, and cross-functional alignment.
Technical Documentation & Traceability
I design structured systems to ensure digital traceability, approval flows, and audit readiness — critical in investor environments or EPC transitions.
Greenfield Projects Systems Design
My approach bridges the gap from design intent to operational execution, ensuring safety and reliability from day zero.
Solutions
Deploying aerospace-integrated systems to solve complex energy challenges.
Energy Transition
From carbon to hydrogen, from ambition to execution.
I support companies in the design and integration of high-reliability systems that accelerate safe, auditable deployment of renewable technologies and transition infrastructures.
Key Services:
- QMS/SMS Integration for Hydrogen Projects.
- Compliance Planning for Emerging Energy Tech.
- Safety Strategy for Green Energy Operations.
- “Proof-of-Control” for Investor Readiness.
Oil & Gas Operations
Applying aerospace discipline to reduce failure in high-risk environments.
Whether upstream, subsea, or terminal operations — I help embed systems that detect weak signals, prevent escalation, and ensure full traceability.
Key Services:
- Independent Risk & Safety Reviews.
- Documentation & Traceability Systems.
- FMEA & Risk Scenario Mapping.
- SMS/QMS for Terminal Operations.
EPC Projects
Where integration fails, projects fail.
I help EPC leaders build systems that align quality, safety, and compliance from day one — with KPIs linked across disciplines, early warning systems, and a culture of prevention.
Key Services:
- Integrated QMS+SMS Deployment.
- Compliance Scorecards for Project Phases.
- KPI Systems for Multi-Stakeholder EPCs.
- Readiness Reviews for Gate Approvals.
Greenfield / Hydrogen / Critical Infrastructure
Designing the system before the system exists.
I specialize in greenfield environments where there’s no existing structure — bringing in aerospace-level foresight to build safety, traceability, and compliance into the blueprint.
Key Services:
- “First Principles” Systems Design.
- Documentation & Quality Structures from Zero.
- Digital Audit-Readiness Frameworks.
- Cultural Maturity Scaling.
