What kind of engineer? Civil, Electrical, Mechanical, Nuclear physics?? engineers generally make good safety people but you will still struggle with only a NGC. I would go straight for a diploma and knock yourself out.
Yes there are jobs available of the kind your seeking. In my company we have HSE Electrical specialists, HSE Scaffolding Specialists and HSE Construction Specialists. However the specialism is just that as we are all general HSE Practitioners first. So you see it depends on what your expertise is really!

Type "oil careers" into Google and follow the links.
Your experience with maintaining Caterpillar equipment in the field is likely to open a few doors for you, I reckon.
Good luck.
Andrew
