This Amendment No. 1 to Schedule 13D amends the Schedule 13D initially filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission by Abax Lotus Ltd., Abax Global Opportunities Fund, Abax Arhat Fund, Abax Upland Fund LLC, Abax Global Capital, Abax Claremont Ltd., Christopher Chung-Yi Hsu and Xiang Dong Yang on February 6, 2008, relating to the commons stock, par value $0.001 per share, of Sinoenergy Corporation. Unless otherwise defined herein, all capitalized terms shall have the meaning given to the in the Schedule 13D.

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

The response set forth in Item 3 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended by adding to the end of Item 3 the following:

The open market purchase of the 69,500 shares of Common Stock on May 7, 2008, was financed from the existing resources of the Investor.

ITEM 4. PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION.

The response set forth in Item 4 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended by adding to the end of Item 4 the following:

On May 16, 2008, the Company and the Controlling Shareholders entered into a clarification of the Investor Rights Agreement (the “Clarification”). Pursuant to the Clarification, notwithstanding any contrary provision of the Convertible Note Indenture, if the Investor shall exercise the Conversion Right (as defined therein) at any time that the Conversion Price (as defined therein) would be less than US$0.40 per share (the “Reset Floor”, in each case as may be proportionally adjusted for any stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split, recapitalization, reclassification, spin-off, merger, combination, consolidation or other similar transaction, such events being hereinafter referred to as “Capital Adjustments”), then such Investor shall exercise the Conversion Right at a Conversion Price not less than the Reset Floor; provided that if the Company shall amend its articles of incorporation such that the number of Shares of authorized common stock would be sufficient to issue Conversion Shares (as defined therein) at a Conversion Price less than US$0.40 per share (as may be proportionally adjusted for any Capital Adjustment), then the Reset Floor shall thereafter be the lowest amount per Share for which the Company would be able to issue the maximum number of Conversion Shares from its authorized share capital, but not less than US$0.05 per share.

On May 30, 2008, the Company announced that Mr. Yang was named to the board of directors of the Company, effective June 1, 2008.

On June 28, 2008, the conversion rate for the Convertible Notes was adjusted downward per the terms of the Convertible Notes Indenture, as amended by the Supplemental Indenture No. 1 by and among the Company, the Trustee and the other parties signatory thereto (the “Supplemental Indenture”) resulting in a current conversion rate of 39,024 shares of Common Stock for each $100,000 principal amount of Convertible Notes. Accordingly, as of the date of this Statement the Investor directly owns (a) the Convertible Notes in principal amount of $9,300,000 and may convert the Convertible Notes into 1,814,634 shares of Common Stock (taking into effect the one for two reverse stock split), and (b) 34,750 shares of Common Stock, which, together, represents 10.6% of the Common Stock.¹

The foregoing description of the Clarification and Supplemental Indenture are qualified in their entirety by the text of the respective agreements attached hereto as Exhibits 1 and 2 and incorporated herein by reference.

ITEM 5. INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE COMPANY.

^{_________________________}

¹ If the Reporting Persons and the Controlling Shareholders were deemed to be a group by virtue of the arrangements described in Items 4 and 6 of this Statement, such group would be deemed to beneficially own approximately 47.4% of the Common Stock as of the date hereof. The Reporting Persons expressly disclaim beneficial ownership of the shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Controlling Shareholders. The share numbers included herein give effect to the one for two reverse stock split that took effect July 9, 2008.

EXECUTION VERSION

CLARIFICATION OF INVESTOR RIGHTS AGREEMENT

THIS CLARIFICATION OF INVESTOR RIGHTS AGREEMENT (this “Clarification”) is made and entered into as of May 16, 2008 by and among (i) (a) Sinoenergy Corporation, a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), Sinoenergy Holdings, Ltd., a British Virgin Islands limited liability company (the “Holdings”), Qingdao Sinogas General Machinery Company Limited, a wholly foreign-owned limited liability company organized and existing under the laws of the People’s Republic of China (the “PRC”) (the “WFOE”, and, together with the Company, Holdings and the other companies set forth on Schedule A hereto, the “Group Companies”); (b) Mr. DENG Tianzhou, a resident of Qingdao in the PRC; (c) Mr. HUANG Bo, a resident of Qingdao Province in the PRC (collectively, Messrs. DENG and HUANG are referred to herein as the “Controlling Shareholders” and individually as the “Controlling Shareholder”); and (ii) Abax Lotus Ltd. (“Abax”) and CCIF Petrol Limited (together with Abax, the “Investors”). For all purposes of this Clarification, capitalized terms not defined herein shall have the respective meanings assigned thereto in the Investor Rights Agreement.

RECITALS

WHEREAS, the Company, Controlling Shareholders and Investors are parties to an Investor Rights Agreement (the “Investor Rights Agreement”) dated as of September 28, 2007 (the “Closing Date”), pursuant to the terms of which any provisions thereof may be, with the written consent of the party against whom enforcement may be sought, waived;

WHEREAS, the Company and the Investors desire to amend the provisions of the Investor Rights Agreement in order to clarify the application of certain antidilution adjustments under the terms of the Convertible Note Indenture.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises contained herein and other valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:

AGREEMENT

SECTION 1. A new Section 2A is hereby added to the Investor Rights Agreement as follows:

2A. Investors’ Covenants.

(a) Without prejudice to the rights of each Investor pursuant to Section 2.3, each Investor hereby covenants and agrees, severally and not jointly, that, notwithstanding any contrary provision of the Convertible Note Indenture, if such Investor shall exercise the Conversion Right at any time that the Conversion Price would, but for this Section 2A(a), be less than US$0.40 per Share (the “Reset Floor”, in each case as may be proportionally adjusted for any stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock

split, recapitalization, reclassification, spin-off, merger, combination, consolidation or other similar transaction, such events being hereinafter referred to as “Capital Adjustments”), then such Investor shall exercise the Conversion Right at a Conversion Price not less than the Reset Floor; provided that if, following the date hereof, the Company shall amend its articles of incorporation such that the number of Shares of authorized common stock would be sufficient to issue Conversion Shares at a Conversion Price less than US$0.40 per Share (as may be proportionally adjusted for any Capital Adjustment), then the Reset Floor shall thereafter be the lowest amount per Share for which the Company would be able to issue the maximum number of Conversion Shares from its authorized share capital, but not less than US$0.05 per Share.

(b) Each Investor hereby covenants and agrees, severally and not jointly, that it shall not transfer any Convertible Notes to any Person unless such Person agrees in writing with the Company to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Section 2A.

SECTION 2. A new Section 2.3 is hereby added to the Investor Rights Agreement as follows:

2.3 (a) The Company shall not, without the prior written consent of all the Investors, issue any Common Stock Equivalents at a price per Share (on an as-converted or as-exercised basis) less than the Reset Floor (as may be proportionally adjusted for any Capital Adjustment, and as may be adjusted pursuant to the terms of Section 2A(a)).

(b) Notwithstanding Section 2A, the Group Companies agree that upon any breach by the Company of Section 2.3, unless the principal of all of the Convertible Notes shall have already become due and payable, either the trustee for the Convertible Notes or the holders of not less than twenty-five percent (25%) in aggregate principal amount of the Convertible Notes then outstanding determined in accordance with Section 12.04 of the Convertible Note Indenture, by notice in writing to the Company (and to the trustee for the Convertible Notes if given by holders of Convertible Notes), may declare the principal of all the Convertible Notes and the interest accrued thereon to be due and payable immediately, and upon any such declaration the same shall become and shall be immediately due and payable, anything in the Convertible Indenture or in the Convertible Notes contained to the contrary notwithstanding. Each Group Company jointly and severally, hereby unconditionally and irrevocably covenants and undertakes to indemnify and hold harmless the trustee for the Convertible Notes, each holder of Convertible Notes, and their respective directors, officers, employees and agents (each an “indemnified party”) in full at all times against all losses, liabilities, actions, proceedings, claims, demands, penalties, damages, costs, expenses disbursements, and other liabilities whatsoever (for purposes of this Section 2.3, the “losses”), including without limitation the costs and expenses of legal advisors and other experts, which may be incurred, suffered or brought against such indemnified party as a result or in connection with (a) their exercise of any of their powers or duties hereunder or the taking of any acts in accordance with the terms of this Clarification (including, without limitation, the right of holders of Convertible Notes to declare an Event of Default as provided in this paragraph

and to receive payment in full in cash for all principal and accrued interest on such Convertible Notes payable upon declaration of any such Event of Default, whether or not such declaration is made under the Convertible Note Indenture), or (b) any instruction or other direction upon which the trustee for the Convertible Notes may rely, as well as the costs and expenses incurred by an indemnified party of defending itself against or investigating any claim or liability with respect of the foregoing. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, each Group Company hereby waives and relinquishes all defenses, claims, rights and remedies accorded by applicable law and agrees not to assert or take advantage of any such defenses, claims, rights or remedies in respect of the declaration of an Event of Default under the Convertible Note Indenture by either the trustee for the Convertible Notes or the holders of Convertible Notes in accordance with the terms hereof.

(c) The parties hereto agree that, without prejudice to the rights of the holders of Convertible Notes pursuant to Section 2.3(b) and in addition to the rights of holders expressed in Section 2.3, the remedy for any violation by the Company of this Section 2.3 shall also include liquidated damages payable by the Company to each Investor in an amount in cash equal to 9.9% of the aggregate principal amount at maturity of Convertible Notes held by such Investor at the date of breach of this Section 2.3 (in each case, “Liquidated Damages”). The Liquidated Damages shall be paid to such Investor within two (2) Business Days following breach of this Section 2.3, and if payment is not made by such date and in such manner, the defaulted amount shall accrue interest at the default rate of interest provided for in the Convertible Note Indenture from the date such breach of this Section 2.3 occurred to but excluding the date that payment is properly made to such Investor pursuant to the terms hereof. Each Group Company jointly and severally hereby unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees to each Investor the due and punctual payment as if such Group Company was, instead of the Company, expressed to be the primary obligor in respect of the Liquidated Damages and not merely surety (but without affecting the nature of the Company’s obligations) and hereby waives and relinquishes all claims, rights and remedies accorded by applicable law to guarantors and agrees not to assert or take advantage of any such claims, rights or remedies.

(d) Each Group Company acknowledges and agrees that the covenants, waivers and indemnities provided in this Section 2.3 are an inducement to each Investor to execute this Clarification, that each Investor has agreed to enter into this Clarification in reliance on the covenants, waivers and indemnity of each Group Company in this paragraph and, but for the covenants, waivers and indemnity of each Group Company in this paragraph, no Investor would have executed this Clarification. Each Group Company also agrees that the trustee for the Convertible Notes and each holder of Convertible Notes is an intended third party beneficiary of the covenants, waivers and indemnities provided in this Section 2.3 and shall have the right to enforce this Section 2.3 against each Group Company.

(e) For purposes of this Section 2.3, “Common Stock Equivalent” means Common Stock and all shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion,
