ITEM 1. SECURITY AND ISSUER SECURITIES ACQUIRED.

ITEM 1 IS HEREBY AMENDED AND RESTATED TO READ IN ITS ENTIRETY AS FOLLOWS:

Security: Common Stock of Allis-Chalmers Corporation ("Common Stock").

Issuer: Allis-Chalmers Corporation ("Issuer"), 7660 Woodway, Suite 200, Houston,
TX 77063


ITEM 2. IDENTITY AND BACKGROUND.

ITEM 2 IS HEREBY AMENDED AND RESTATED TO READ IN ITS ENTIRETY AS FOLLOWS:

Pursuant to Rule 13d-1(a) of Regulation 13D-G of the General Rules and
Regulations under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Act"),
this Schedule 13D Statement is hereby filed by Jens H. Mortensen, Jr., a United
States citizen.

Mr. Mortensen is President of Jens Oilfield Service, Inc. ("JOS"), a Texas
corporation approximately 81% of the capital stock of which is owned by the
Issuer. Mr. Mortensen's business address is 3 1/2 Mile West Highway 107,
Edinburg, TX 78539.

During the last five years, Mr. Mortensen (i) has not been convicted in a
criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors) and
(ii) was not a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body
of competent jurisdiction and as a result of such proceeding was or is subject
to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining future violations of, or
prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities laws
or finding any violation with respect to such laws.


ITEM 3. SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION.

ITEM 3 IS HEREBY AMENDED AND RESTATED TO READ IN ITS ENTIRETY AS FOLLOWS:

Mr. Mortensen acquired 1,397,849 shares of Issuer's Common Stock in exchange for
81% of the capital stock of JOS. See Item 4 below.


ITEM 4. PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION.

ITEM 4 IS HEREBY AMENDED AND RESTATED TO READ IN ITS ENTIRETY AS FOLLOWS:


Pursuant to the terms of the Stock Purchase Agreement dated February 1, 2002,
between the Issuer and Mr. Mortensen, which is incorporated by reference to
Exhibit 7.1 to the Schedule 13D filed by Mr. Mortensen on March 21, 2002, Mr.
Mortensen sold 81% of his capital stock in JOS to the Issuer in exchange for (i)
$10,250,000 in cash, (ii) a $4,000,000 secured promissory note with interest
payable quarterly and the principal due in four years, (iii) an additional
payment of $983,000 based upon JOS' working capital on February 1, 2002 and(iv)
$1,234,560,000 for a non-compete agreement payable monthly for five years, and
(v) 1,397,849 shares of Common Stock of the Issuer. In addition, Mortensen has
the option to convert the JOS shares retained by him into a number of shares of
Common Stock of the Issuer equal to a fraction, the numerator of which is 4.6
multiplied by the trailing 12 month EBITDA (as defined below) of JOS, less any
net intercompany loans to and third party investments in JOS, multiplied by
0.19, and the denominator of which is the average closing bid price for the
Issuer's Common Stock during the thirty days prior to the date of the exercise
of the option. For purposes of the foregoing calculation, EBITDA means JOS'
earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization and any payments
made to the Issuer in respect of the Issuer's overhead. At March 4, 2004, Mr.
Mortensen notified the Company of his election to trigger this right, and has
the right, anytime during the sixty day period beginning March 4, 2004, to
convert his JOS shares into 5,645,912 shares of Common Stock.

Mr. Mortensen disposed of 69,892 shares of Common Stock in a private transaction
in December 2003.

On March 22, 2004, the Company issued Mr. Mortensen an option to acquire 500,000
shares of the Issuer's Common Stock, of which options to acquire 166,666 shares
vested immediately and 166,666 shares will vest on each of December 16, 2004 and
December 16, 2005.

On April 2, 2004, (a) in exchange for an investment of $2 million, the Company
issued 3,100,000 shares of Common Stock, and warrants to purchase 4,000,000
shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $0.50 per share, expiring on
April 1, 2006, to an investor group consisting of Donald Engel, Chris Engel, the
Engel Investors Defined Benefit Plan, director Leonard Toboroff and RER Corp., a
Michigan Corporation, wholly owned by director Robert Nederlander (the "Investor
Group"), and (b) Energy Spectrum Partners, LP, the holder of all outstanding
shares of the Company's Series A 10% Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock,
converted all shares of Series A 10% Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock,
including accrued dividend rights, into 8,590,449 shares of Common Stock. In
connection with those transactions, the Investor Group, Energy Spectrum Partners
LP, Munawar H. Hidayatallah, Saeed M. Sheikh and Mr. Mortensen entered into a
stockholders agreement (the "Stockholders Agreement") pursuant to which the
parties have agreed to vote for the election to the board of directors of the
Company three persons nominated by Energy Spectrum, two persons nominated by the
Investor Group and one person nominated by Messrs. Hidayatallah, Mortensen and
Sheikh. The parties and the Company also agreed that in the event the Company
has not completed a public offering of its shares prior to September 30, 2005,
then, at the request of Energy Spectrum, the Company will retain an investment
banking firm to identify candidates for a transaction
involving the sale of the Company or its assets. In addition, the Company,
Energy Spectrum, the Investors Group, Messrs. Hidayatallah, Sheikh and Mortensen
and others entered into a registration rights agreement with Issuer and other
parties named therein dated April 2, 2004 (the "Registration Rights Agreement"),
pursuant to which the parties were granted certain registration rights with
respect to the Common Stock owned or to be owned by such parties.

Mr. Mortensen acquired the shares of Common Stock as an investment.

Mr. Mortensen reserves the right to (i) dispose of all or part of his investment
in the Stock at any time, (ii) acquire additional equity securities of the
Issuer or its affiliates, in the open market, in private transactions or
otherwise, (iii) propose a merger or other business combination with the Issuer
or its affiliates, or (iv) to take any other action with respect to the Issuer.
Any such purchases will depend upon the market prices for the shares of Common
Stock, the number of shares which may become available for purchase at prices
which he regards as attractive and various other factors which he may determine
to be relevant.

Except as set forth in this Item 4, Mr. Mortensen has no present plans or
proposals that relate to or that would result in any of the actions or events
described in paragraphs (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D. However, Mr.
