AFAIK the only info about dividends came from capital markets day:
"Introduction of a dividend policy of $200m (16 pence/share2) annually to be paid in two equal instalments, starting with a final dividend of $100m (8 pence/share2) for 2021 to be paid in May 2022 following shareholder approval."
No mention of a record date / ex dividend date which is the day on which you need to own the shares in order to receive the dividend.
BTW, 16 pence is the same as BP pays per share, so I'd expect the share price to be in the same ball park as BP. (Obvs. you then have to take growth potential, debt etc. into account).
