I would prefer to stay in VA. Trying to figure out whether it would be worth it. My parents really don't want me to leave for that long, but it might be worth it in the end.
My brother-in-law has been working for Exxon since finishing college at Purdue University. Younger Chemical Engineers at Exxon are typically sent on 2+ years assignments all over the world until they are more senior in the company. He's 6 years older than me, has a BS, makes $250K/year and gets stipend on top of his salary while on assignment. House paid for and just bought another one. I'm following his tracks as far as getting my house paid for while younger.

A couple of cousins are going through the Chemical Engineering program at Colorado School of Mines and one has already been offered internships paying 30-40K over the summer.

So as summary, you picked the right field for $$$, you just have to get used to being sent on projects all over
