The park, from above.

Four drone passes across thirteen industrial zones — the matured spine, the ready-built cluster, the EV & semiconductor corridor, and heavy industry. Captured this quarter.

Infrastructure · Port

Ready infrastructure. A port that doubles by 2026.

Water, multi-tier grid, gas, fibre and arterial roads — provisioned before tenants arrive. Sapangar Bay's expansion lifts container capacity from 500k to 1.25M TEU on the same shoreline.

KKIP ready infrastructure — water, electricity, gas, roads and fibre

Ready Infrastructure

Water, 11/33/66/132 kV grid, gas, fibre and arterial roads — already in the ground.

An expedited setup: industrial water points, multi-tier electricity distribution lines, a natural gas pipeline, main distributor roads with internal road network, and a fibre-optic telecommunication backbone — all provisioned before tenants arrive.

Sapangar Bay Container Port expansion plan from 500k to 1.25M TEU

Port Development

Sapangar Bay: 500k → 1.25M TEU by 2026.

Berth length extends from 500 m to 833 m, depth from 12 m to 14 m, and a new yard area and access bridge unlock post-Panamax capacity. Capacity more than doubles, accommodating mainline carriers calling Borneo directly.
