I have been struggling to merge datetime ranges in oracle SQL/PLSQL (Database Standard Edition 11gR2).
I am trying to merge datetime ranges so that the following data
order_id start_date_time end_date_time
3933 04/02/2020 08:00:00 04/02/2020 12:00:00
3933 04/02/2020 13:30:00 04/02/2020 17:00:00

The format of start_date_time and end_date_time is DAY/MONTH/YEAR HH24:MI:SS.
Any suggestion/solution on how to make that merge in Oracle SQL or PL/SQL?
I thought that was a trivial problem, however I was not able to find a solution on the internet yet.
Thanks in advance.
Solution
alter session set nls_date_format='DD/MM/YYYY HH24:MI:SS';
create table data(order_id number, start_date_time date, end_date_time date);
insert into data values (3933 ,'04/02/2020 08:00:00', '04/02/2020 12:00:00');

Then with some magic:
select d1.order_id, d1.start_date_time, max(d2.end_date_time) as end_date_time
from data d1 join data d2
on (d1.order_id = d2.order_id and
(d1.start_date_time <= d2.end_date_time and d2.start_date_time <= d1.end_date_time))
group by d1.order_id, d1.start_date_time
intersect
select d1.order_id, min(d1.start_date_time), d2.end_date_time
from data d1 join data d2
on (d1.order_id = d2.order_id and
(d1.start_date_time <= d2.end_date_time and d2.start_date_time <= d1.end_date_time))
group by d1.order_id, d2.end_date_time
order by 1, 2, 3;
ORDER_ID START_DATE_TIME END_DATE_TIME

OTHER TIPS
A method that does not require any self-joins and will only read the table once.
This is adapted from this answer which contains an explanation of the code. All that has changed is to add PARTITION BY order_id to calculate the date ranges for each order_id and then to return the ranges (rather than total the values, as per the linked answer):
SELECT order_id,
start_date_time,
end_date_time
FROM (
SELECT order_id,
LAG( dt ) OVER ( PARTITION BY order_id ORDER BY dt ) AS start_date_time,
dt AS end_date_time,
start_end
FROM (
SELECT order_id,
dt,
CASE SUM( value ) OVER ( PARTITION BY order_id ORDER BY dt ASC, value DESC, ROWNUM ) * value
WHEN 1 THEN 'start'
WHEN 0 THEN 'end'
END AS start_end
FROM table_name
UNPIVOT ( dt FOR value IN ( start_date_time AS 1, end_date_time AS -1 ) )
)
WHERE start_end IS NOT NULL
)
WHERE start_end = 'end';
Which, for your test data:
CREATE TABLE table_name (
order_id NUMBER,
start_date_time DATE,
end_date_time DATE
);
INSERT INTO table_name ( order_id, start_date_time, end_date_time )
