Another one of my favourite explores and other than me and Revelation_space I've never seen any reports on this massive building that used to sit in Dyce.

Didnt realise it was closed for a long time so we decided to pop along one day and have a look inside, think we spent about 8 hours in here going around the building the first time.

This was BP's North Sea Headquarters until the new offices were built just behind this building, It was mostly just empty offices but there was some interesting bits here and there and the lighting was

very nice.

It was demolished in 2011 and is now a bunch of identical new build houses.

These photos are taken over three visits where me and Revelation_Space pretty much covered the whole building.

Loads of photos so I'll split it over two parts.

Everything marked in Red here was empty on this site.

We decided to catch the sunrise from the top floor then head up to the roof.

Most of the building was empty offices but I still liked them for some reason

These are various images from the last two visits I made to the building to see the bits I had missed.

Loads of old server equipment left behind

I loved this meeting room

The ground floors of the building had an extensive visit from the metal fairies.

Might as well finish off with another one of the entrances.

I have hundreds of photos from here, but I've tried to cut it down a lot so it doesn't end up too excessive!

Thanks for the feedback guys, I realise office buildings aren't everyone's cup of tea but this is a much nicer response than I got with this same report on a forum I wont name a few years ago!
