Aramco reaffirmed its second-quarter base dividend of $20.3 billion, and declared a performance-linked dividend of $10.8 billion to be paid in the third quarter.
The crude producer had an output of 8.99 million barrels per day in the second quarter, according to a July OPEC report citing secondary sources.
