You could use DateTime and DateTimeZone. There's also a DateInterval class that allows you to specify an interval that you can use with DateTime::add and DateTime::sub.

<?php

$date = new DateTime('2000-01-01', new DateTimeZone('Pacific/Nauru'));
echo $date->format('Y-m-d H:i:sP') . PHP_EOL;

$date->setTimezone(new DateTimeZone('Pacific/Chatham'));
echo $date->format('Y-m-d H:i:sP') . PHP_EOL;

?>

Outputs:

2000-01-01 00:00:00+12:00
2000-01-01 01:45:00+13:45
