Kimanis Bay (Malay: Teluk Kimanis) is a bay on the west coast of the island of Borneo. It is a part of Malaysian state of Sabah and connects to the South China Sea. Administratively, it belongs to Papar District in the West Coast Division.[1]
Geography

History
The name of the bay is derived from the settlement of Kimanis. The name Kimanis Bay can already be found on a map of British North Borneo from 1899 published by the North Borneo Chartered Company.[3]
Sabah-Sarawak Integrated Oil and Gas Project
The Sabah Oil and Gas Terminal (SOGT), located in the coastal area of Kimanis Bay, serve as a receiving, storage and export station for oil and natural gas from Sabah's offshore fields. At the same time, the Sabah-Sarawak Gas Pipeline (SSGP) begins here, which transports natural gas over a distance of 522 kilometers to Bintulu, Sarawak.[4][5]
