You should already have all needed variables in /etc/profile.d/oracle.sh. Make sure you source it:

$ source /etc/profile.d/oracle.sh

The file's content looks like:

ORACLE_HOME=/usr/lib/oracle/11.2/client64
PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/bin:$PATH
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/lib
export ORACLE_HOME
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH
export PATH

If you don't have it, create it and source it.
