I looked at your stacktrace again and I was wrong that there's nothing that would cause a NPE to be raised (I was looking at a wrong line). The immediate problem must be that a column is null. This column name should be the primary key of the bitstreamformatregistry table. As far as I know, there have been no changes to this table between 1.8 and 3.0, as also evidenced by the postgres upgrade script. That would indicate that some generic change, probably in the DatabaseManager or TableRow class, broke Oracle.
To resolve the problem, check whether you have the BitstreamFormatRegistry table created and bitstream_format_id is its primary key. My hunch is that this is some kind of character case problem with the table name in DSpace code.
