UNIX file handling issue

I have a huge file semicolon( ; ) separated records are Pipe(|) delimited.

e.g
Code:
abc;def;ghi|jkl;mno;pqr|123;456;789

I need to replace the 50th field(semicolon separated) of each record with 9006. The 50th field can have no value e.g. ;;

Can someone help me with the appropriate command.
