Bulbultyagi, You can also consider to use a tool called OraExp from http://www.agileinfosoftware.com
It uses OCI to read long, blob, clob etc and generate insert statements as a SQL script and then you can run this script to load it to your target database, export is pretty fast. I tried the other day and it worked great.
