Ans: Lump-sum turnkey (LSTK) EPC contracting is now popular world-wide as a project delivery system for large process and power facilities. Examples are steel mills, LNG facilities, petroleum and petrochemical facilities and power plants. It is also being adopted for large infrastructure developments such as airports, water treatment facilities and telecommunication systems.
