    here we go:
    EPS for the half year: 115cps (IO and Oil prices good) - no great analysis here, but IO price should give profit uplift of ~$3B and ~$1B for oil
    interim div: USD 18cps (cf USD16cps pcp) - without saying that this is a "base" dividend that will increase each year (remember the problem they got into in the past) they will want to indicate that repeatable dividends will be at or above this.
    special div: USD 18cps - indicating profitability is good, begin repaying shareholders who have suffered pain with div cuts, indicating financial prudence by keeping most of improved profit in the company, keeping firepower for future "specials"

    I will stand corrected in a coupla days!
