HI:
above title..
Try cx_Oracle.
I think it is the best variant on Linux,win32 and Solaris.
"cx_Oracle is a Python extension module that allows access to Oracle databases and conforms to the Python database API specification.
This module is currently built against Oracle 8.1.7 and 9.2.0. "
see:

I heard good things about the cx package since I was looking at the same
stuff recently. Note you will need to install the Oracle client for this.

If you are doing just a few simple queries you can do without cx and the
client by calling 'sqlplus' and just sending the input and capturing the
output. I had this working using 'popen2' and running sqlplus as a child.

This is viable if you are happy calling sqlplus each time, ie could you do
what you want as a shell script, but it is worth considering.
