FROM   kladr.kladr_tmp k 
WHERE  k.kladr_mod = '00'

DB postgreSql. jpa prov hibernate. What could be the reason of this?

Question now is how to modify this query to work in postgres(before it was working in oracle db) if some subquerys returns null?

In PostgreSQL, an expression of the form a || b will evaluate to NULL if either of its arguments is NULL. So, your INSERT statement will try to insert NULL into kladr_full_name if any of those subqueries fails to find a record. You need to try each of those subqueries separately, and see which one is not giving you a record (or is giving you a record with NULL).

Edited to add in response to OP comment: In Oracle, there's no concept of zero-length strings, because they're converted to NULL (so, for example, '' = '' is not true, whereas '' IS NULL is). Usually the conversion is one-way — LENGTH('') IS NULL — but in the case of the || operator, it converts NULL back to a zero-length string, such that 'ab' || NULL || 'cd' is 'abcd'. PostgreSQL doesn't do this conversion automatically, because it does distinguish '' from NULL, but you can either:
