Is there a method to export a table that contains a BLOB column and import that back with out the exp and imp utilities..? The reason being I need to produce the migration scripts that would be attempted from a machine that need not necessarily have these tools..

You can always write a program (or PL/SQL block) to read the data and write it out to whatever format you want.

Suggestion: write it out in a SQL*Loader compatible format - it will allow you to easily load it back with the sqlldr utility.
