This XSLT 1.0 style-sheet should do the trick.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
 xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
 xmlns:ns1="http://www.norskeskog.com/MES">
<xsl:output method="xml" indent="yes"/>

<xsl:template match="@*|node()">
 <xsl:copy> 
   <xsl:apply-templates select="@*|node()" /> 
 </xsl:copy> 
</xsl:template>  

<xsl:template match="ns1:DNRL/ns1:MESSAGE_DATA">
 <xsl:copy> 
   <xsl:apply-templates select="@*" /> 
   <xsl:value-of select="concat(., ' ', ../preceding-sibling::ns1:DNR2[1]/ns1:MESSAGE_DATA)" /> 
   <xsl:apply-templates select="*" /> 
 </xsl:copy> 
</xsl:template>  

</xsl:stylesheet>

Notes

Use the power of the identity template to save you an enormous
amount of script writing.
Write templates to handle the desired variation from identity transformation.
