Jon Heller's answer has some more details, so go upvote his answer. Since this is the accepted answer still, I'll inline part of his response:

ORA_HASH is definitely deterministic for data types that can be used for partitioning, such as NUMBER, VARCHAR, DATE, etc.

But ORA_HASH is not deterministic for at least some of the other data types, such as CLOB.
