a) plpgsql doesn't support complex expressions on left side of assign
command, b) '' is not NULL in PostgreSQL
you can write your code some like
DECLARE r RECORD;
BEGIN
FOR i IN array_lower(x, 1) .. array_upper(x, 1)
LOOP
r := x[i];
IF r.reference_value = 'ABC' THEN
r.reference_value := NULL;
x[i] := r;
END IF;
END LOOP;
END;
