Hi Manoj,
This is not a code issue, usually Big End Users like Shell, Exxon etc specify a time Limit for WPS,
"All WPS with qualification greater than 7 years shall be requalified" is an extract from Exxon Welding Spec, In order to approve WPS and satisfy Client you need to evidence of continuous use of WPS till date, attach a Welding Log showing previous clients, year and application of the same WPS.
Trust me it will work since we have done the same thing before.
Regards
Manpreet Singh
