From 15:00 BST, Scotland will play Bangladesh in the second match in Group B.
Papua New Guinea - who lost 10 of their previous white-ball cricket games and were making their World Cup debut - lost both openers to ducks before Vala shared a PNG record stand of 81 with Charles Amini.
Amini was caught trying to grab a quick single and was outrun by the non-striker. This sparked a collapse that saw seven wickets fall for 37 runs. Oman spinner Zeeshan Mqsood, Oman's captain, claimed 4-20, the highest Oman bowler in T20 cricket.
Singh and Ilyas, who had never played together for Oman, hit 12 fours each and five sixes to become the third team of men to win a T20 World Cup match by 10 wickets.
