Job description

Who We Are FGE NexantECA is a global energy and chemicals intelligence business, helping energy companies, traders, investors, and governments make better decisions in some of the world's most complex and fast-moving markets. We combine deep market expertise with rigorous data-driven analysis across oil, gas, LNG, chemicals, and the energy transition. Our clients range from major producers and utilities to trading houses and sovereign funds - and they rely on us to cut through noise and give them a clear view of what's happening and what comes next. We're also in the middle of something genuinely exciting. We're launching Lumen, a next-generation intelligence platform that moves us beyond static research towards something faster, more connected, and more directly usable by clients. It's a good moment to join - and this role is part of that story. The Role This is an analyst role focused on one of the most consequential and fast-evolving downstream markets in the world. You'll develop deep expertise in Middle Eastern refined product markets — covering refinery operations, product supply and demand balances, trade flows, pricing, and regional market structure across products including naphtha, LPG, gasoline, jet, gasoil/diesel, fuel oil, and petrochemical feedstocks. You'll work closely with specialists across upstream, refining, crude and products trading, and macroeconomics — gaining a genuine understanding of how Middle Eastern downstream markets fit into the full oil barrel and global trade system. Over time, you'll build real ownership of specific markets or product areas and become a recognised voice in the team. This is not a role for someone who wants to process data in the background. We want someone who is curious about markets, comfortable getting into the detail, and motivated to turn analysis into insight that actually gets used. What You'll Do Market Analysis & Modelling

  • Collect, clean, and analyse refined product data across the Middle East — supply, demand, trade, and pricing
  • Build and maintain downstream supply and demand models by product and country
  • Analyse refinery operations and configurations, including throughput, yields, outages, and new capacity additions
  • Assess product trade flows, export destinations, import requirements, and arbitrage dynamics
  • Analyse pricing structures, including regional benchmarks, netbacks, and linkages to crude and global product markets
  • Develop short- and long-term downstream market forecasts

Market Intelligence & Research

  • Monitor policy, subsidy, specification, and regulatory developments affecting Middle Eastern product markets
  • Translate data and market developments into clear, forward-looking insight grounded in real market behaviour
  • Prepare client-facing presentations, charts, and written analysis
  • Contribute to client deliverables including briefings, reports, and workshops
  • Support senior analysts and consultants on cross-barrel and cross-regional projects

Data & Tools

  • Work with large, often imperfect datasets and bring structure and clarity to ambiguous situations
  • Contribute to how analysis is integrated into Lumen as the platform evolves
  • Use AI and data tools where relevant to accelerate research and improve how insight is communicated

What We're Looking For We're open to candidates with up to 3 years of relevant experience, as well as strong graduates. You might come from energy, engineering, economics, chemistry, mathematics, finance, or a related field. Prior downstream or oil market experience is not required. We're genuinely happy to train the right person from the ground up — what matters more is that you bring strong analytical foundations, intellectual curiosity, and a real interest in how markets work. If you're the kind of person who reads about refinery margins or trade flows for fun, this role is for you. We're particularly interested in people who:

  • Are genuinely curious about refined product markets, trade economics, and regional market structure
  • Are highly numerate and comfortable working with large, complex datasets
  • Can build and interpret product balance and refinery models
  • Think critically about market balances, pricing, refinery behaviour, and trade dynamics
  • Communicate clearly — in writing, in charts, and in conversation
  • Are comfortable managing multiple tasks in a deadline-driven environment
  • Are eager to learn, develop, and take on increasing ownership over time
  • Have started exploring how AI and modern data tools can support analytical work — or are keen to

Technically, advanced Excel with strong modelling aptitude is essential. Python or SQL is a meaningful plus. We're also interested in candidates who are actively exploring how AI and LLM tools can accelerate research, structure insight, and improve how analysis gets communicated — this is becoming a genuine part of how we work. Fluency in English is required; Arabic is an advantage but not essential. Why Dubai — and Why Now Dubai is one of the best places in the world to build a career in energy markets. You'll be at the centre of a region that sits at the intersection of global crude flows, major refining capacity, and some of the world's most significant producers and traders. The Middle East is not a peripheral market — it drives global balances, and understanding it from the inside is a genuine career asset. Beyond the market itself, Dubai offers an exceptional quality of life — a genuinely international city with a dynamic business environment, strong connectivity, and a thriving energy sector community. Joining now also means being part of a business in transformation. You'll contribute to building something new — not maintaining something old — and you'll develop skills in market analysis, data, and AI-assisted research that are increasingly valued across the industry.
