You will need to have either the full Oracle database client installed (or the instant client) on each workstation in order to communicate with an Oracle database server.

This is completely separate to the "OracleClient" ADO.net classes.

You don't need to "install" it, but you do have to provide the appropriate DLLs with your assembly.

You need to go and grab the Oracle Data Provider which will enable you to query Oracle databases using standard ADO.NET access patterns.
