BOHOGS is the Bowen Basin & Hunter Valley Open Cut Geotechnical Society.
The Bowen Basin Open Cut Geotechnical Society (BBOCGS) was created in 2011. When BBOCGS joined the Hunter Valley Open Cut Geotechnical Society (HOGS) in 2013, BOHOGS was formed.
The primarily open cut geotechnical engineering society is based in the coal mining mining regions of the Bowen Basin in Queensland and the Hunter Valley in New South Wales, Australia.
BOHOGS is a society where open cut geotechnical engineers can share experiences, gain career professional development and liaise with like minded professionals in a friendly environment.
With 500+ members, BOHOGS also provides an opportunity for companies, suppliers and consultancies to sponsor the society. This helps to get their brand out there in the geotechnical engineering community as well has aid in helping BOHOGS continue to organise technical events, social events, sponsor university events and organise site visits and annual suppliers days.
