Golden Triangle Polymers, the new $8.5 billion Chevron Phillips chemical plant under construction, will be using barges on Cow Bayou to transport large modular pieces of the plant along with other heavy equipment. The barges will be unloaded at a new "Marine Offloading Facility," or "MOD," along the bayou on the south side of the State Highway 87 bridge into Bridge City. From there, heavy vehicles will haul the modules and equipment southward on Highway 87 to the plant site and Gate 2, across from the Orange County Airport.
