Introduction

 

This Amendment No. 1 to Schedule 13D (this “Amendment”) amends the Schedule 13D initially filed on February 11, 2005 (collectively, with all amendments thereto, the “Schedule 13D”).

 

Preliminary Note: The Reporting Person is filing this Schedule 13D with respect to the Common Stock, par value $.00001 per share (the “Common Stock”), of W&T Offshore, Inc. (the “Company”). This Amendment to the Schedule 13D is being filed to report that Tracy W. Krohn (“Mr. Krohn”) is no longer beneficial owner of certain shares reported in his initial Schedule 13D filing.

 

ITEM 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer

 

Items 5(a), (b) and (c) are hereby amended in their entirety to read as follows:

As of February 2, 2005, Mr. Krohn may be deemed to beneficially own an aggregate of 40,752,007 shares of Common Stock, representing approximately 61.8% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock. Mr. Krohn has entered into an Underwriting Agreement, a copy of which was attached to his original Schedule 13D filing, pursuant to which he has granted a group of underwriters the option to acquire from him up to 396,804 shares of Common Stock to cover over-allotments in the Company’s initial public offering. This option terminates on February 26, 2005 if it is not exercised prior thereto.

 

(b) Mr. Krohn has the sole power to vote or to direct the vote and has the sole power to dispose of or to direct the disposition of 40,752,007 shares of the Common Stock that he may be deemed to beneficially own as indicated above.

 

(c) The following is a list of the transactions by the Reporting Person in the Shares since the date of the Reporting Person’s Schedule 13D.

 

On February 2, 2005, Mr. Krohn sold 2,645,371 shares of Common Stock in the Company’s initial public offering.

 

On February 2, 2005, Mr. Krohn ceased to have sole voting power over 7,087,271 shares beneficially owned by Jerome F. Freel and Ann K. Freel.

 

On February 2, 2005, Mr. Krohn ceased to have sole voting power over 1,915,712 shares owned of record by Company employees.

 

Other than the transactions described above, in the past 60 days, no transactions in the shares of Common Stock were affected by the Filing Person.

 

(d) Not applicable.

 

(e) Not applicable.

 

ITEM 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect to Securities of the Issuer

 

Item 6 is hereby amended in its entirety to read as follows:

 

Other than agreements filed by the Reporting Person in his initial Schedule 13D filing, there are no contracts, arrangements, understandings, or relationships (legal or otherwise) between the Reporting Person and any person with respect to any securities of the Company, including, but not limited to, transfer or voting of any of such securities, finder’s fees, joint ventures, loan or option arrangements, puts or calls, guarantees of profits, division of profits or loss, or the giving or withholding of proxies.
