Jackson, Miss. (December 2, 2025) – Bulk liquid storage and logistics services provider BWC Terminals is locating a terminal facility in Pascagoula. The project represents a corporate investment of nearly $316 million and will create 25 jobs.
BWC Terminals serves a variety of industries, including the refining, manufacturing and distribution of bulk liquids such as petroleum, chemicals and agricultural products. The company also provides a range of additional services including custom built tanks, storage, blending and other specialized logistics.
The Pascagoula terminal, which will be located at the site of the former Mississippi Phosphates Corporation facility, is being built and operated to support an agreement with Chevron Products Company to receive, store and deliver petroleum products for the nearby Chevron Pascagoula Refinery. It initially will include seven above-ground storage tanks and direct pipeline connectivity to the refinery, unit train unloading capabilities and connectivity to marine infrastructure to load and unload ships and barges. The refinery will benefit from increased storage and a throughput of various feedstocks, as well.
The Mississippi Development Authority is providing assistance through the Mississippi Flexible Tax Incentive, or MFLEX, program. Jackson County is assisting with the project, as well.
BWC Terminals broke ground on the terminal today and expects to complete construction next fall.
