SELECT XMLString.query(
'<well>
<name>{/well/name/node()}</name>
<country>{/well/country/node()}</country>
<block>{/well/block/node()}</block>
<timeZone>{/well/timeZone/node()}</timeZone>
<wellDatum>
<name>{/well/wellDatum/name/node()}</name>
<code>{/well/wellDatum/code/node()}</code>
</wellDatum>
<waterDepth>{/well/waterDepth/node()}</waterDepth>
</well>'
),
XMLString FROM Well
