FortiGate IPSec to PfSense OpenVPN

I need to create an IPSec tunnel from a FortiGate to an PfSense OpenVPN. Is this possible, or do I need to create an IPSec tunnel on both firewalls?
Tried to google this but found nothing helpfull.

Kind regards

IPsec tunnels and TLS-based (OpenVPN, Fortinet's SSL-VPN) tunnels are completely different protocols, you will not be able to establish one tunnel between one side using IPsec and the other using OpenVPN.

[ corrections always welcome ]
