None is mandatory. Several are highly recommended, however.

I do not understand the need for listing it down. Almost all environment variables have their own effect on the server and the stages being used in the jobs.

Also, environment variables have a default value which is ok unless you find a problem with that.

As Craig suggested, you should first go through the environment variables listed in Parallel Job Advanced Developer's Guide and then you can list down the variables which affects you jobs. If you have any questions regarding any Environment variable then we should be able to help you.
