Try to use ogr2ogr utility from GDAL/OGR (http://www.gdal.org/ogr/)

Basic command looks like as follows:


ogr2ogr -f PostgreSQL PG:dbname=mydb \
   OCI:sys/password at oracle_service


Here you will find more details about:

- OGR utilities

http://www.gdal.org/ogr/ogr_utilities.html

- PostgreSQL/PostGIS driver

- Oracle driver:
