SELECT EXTRACT(EPOCH FROM TIMESTAMP WITH TIME ZONE ‘2001-02-16 20:38:40.12-08‘);
Result: 982384720.12

SELECT EXTRACT(EPOCH FROM INTERVAL ‘5 days 3 hours‘);

Here is how you can convert an epoch value back to a time stamp:

SELECT TIMESTAMP WITH TIME ZONE ‘epoch‘ + 982384720.12 * INTERVAL ‘1 second‘;
