Noticed that so I went to look at their history and it turns out they've been a bit bumpy with increases. Went more than 4 quarters between increases both in 2002-03 and 2008-09, but have also increased more often than every 4 quarters a few times as well.
So, maybe they are going to go 6-7 quarters without a raise in order to conserve cash.

Went 5 quarters in 2008-09, 7 quarters in 2001-03 and 8 quarters in 2000-01.
Will all depend on the price of crude I suppose. Trend is in right direction now as oil is back to the high $50's...
