About This Seaport
A container terminal, a liquid-bulk jetty, a dry-bulk jetty and a barge landing make POIC Lahad Datu the most complete port facility on Sabah's east coast. Located on Darvel Bay in south-eastern Sabah, the complex was established from 2005 to add value to the region's roughly 1.55 million hectares of oil-palm estates. Its core traffic is liquid bulk — palm oil and oleochemicals — alongside fertiliser, biomass, breakbulk and feeder container volumes; the container terminal has run since 2019 and the port was later opened to public cargo. Mainline container services are not confirmed here, so boxes typically move by feeder to larger hubs. Inland connections rely on the road network serving the surrounding plantations and processing plants within the BIMP-EAGA growth area. Shippers needing mainline capacity generally route through Sepanggar (Kota Kinabalu), with Tawau and Sandakan as alternative east-coast options.
