ora2pg tool can be used to accomplish the migration from oracle to postgresql.
download it from here...
The one in contib directory is an old version i guess.
About clob, blob, and long columns in Oracle all become 'text' in postgresql.

As I browse through the contrib directory I find an Oracle directory with example perl scripts to do just as your asking.

Yes.
But Oracle is completely useless at dumping data. You may want to use
the sqltool in HSQLDB (http://hsqldb.org/) or similar that is able to
connect both to Oracle and PG.
PLSQL developer is also able to do a connection to both but is
commercial software.
Alternatively, if you are really adventurous, set up a JDBC link to the
PG table via DBLINK in Oracle and then pump across that way.
