Chemical company moving to B'ville
By ROD WALTON World Staff Writer

Chevron Phillips Chemical Co. LP will move its Orange, Texas, polyethylene technology center to Bartlesville by the end of next spring, a company spokesman said Monday.
The transfer will relocate or redeploy about 20 jobs from the Orange facility. The relocations will be to Bartlesville's Plastic Technology Center, while other personnel may be redeployed elsewhere in the company, spokesman Brian Cain said.
"We don't know how many that will be," he added.
Chevron Phillips, a 50-50 joint venture started in 2000 by ConocoPhillips and Chevron Corp., researches and produces high-density polyethylene for pipes, milk jugs and many other uses. The division's manufacturing center will remain in Orange, Cain noted.
Both the tech center and the plant sustained damage during the hurricane season. The manufacturing facility is being restored for a planned December reopening, while the storm damage played a role in moving the technology center to Bartlesville.
"The relocation of OTC (Orange Technology Center) is something that has been considered for some time, but the hurricane damage did factor into that decision," Cain said.
Chevron Phillips Chemical is a top producer of olefins, plastic piping and polymer resins worldwide. The company and its affiliates employ more than 5,300 people at 38 manufacturing and research facilities in nine countries.
