The data is confidential so I have obfuscated the names:
CREATE TABLE x
(
c01 bigserial NOT NULL,
c02 integer NOT NULL,
c03 integer NOT NULL,
c04 integer NOT NULL,
c05 integer,
c06 integer,
c07 integer,
c08 integer,
c09 integer,
c10 integer,
c11 integer,
c12 integer,
c13 character varying(8),
c14 integer,
c15 integer,
c16 character varying(8),
c17 integer,
c18 character varying(8),
c19 integer,
c20 integer,
c21 integer,
c22 integer,
c23 integer,
c24 integer,
c25 integer,
c26 integer,
c27 integer,

c33 integer,
CONSTRAINT "PK_x" PRIMARY KEY (c01)
