As Reddiva asks, quals, experience and so on are relevant so that we can respond accordingly.

Gender is also highly relevant, as are your reasons for wanting to relocate there, if you want tips.

Recent graduate, Mechanical Engineering, I have one year experience. I am hopping to find an entry level graduate job in the oil and gas sector.

Most graduates in oil and gas are Qatari in ( Qatar) or Saudi in Saudi Most operators have made massive cuts and government companies will only recruit nationals. It will be tough market for you to penetrate as it still is recovering
I work this sector in the UAE but unless you have a minimum of 5 years experience with a major operator my clients would not look at you.
