SCHEDULE 13D AMENDMENT NO. 2

This Amendment No. 2 (this “Amendment”) to Schedule 13D (the “Schedule 13D”), relating to shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, (“Common Stock”) of Energy Partners, Ltd., a Delaware corporation (the “Issuer”), is being filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”).

This Amendment is filed on behalf of (i) Double Black Diamond Offshore LDC, a Cayman exempted company (“DBD Offshore”), (ii) Carlson Capital, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (“Carlson Capital”), the investment manager to DBD Offshore and other private investment funds and managed accounts (the “Accounts”), (iii) Asgard Investment Corp., a Delaware corporation, the general partner to Carlson Capital (“Asgard”) and (iv) Mr. Clint D. Carlson, the president of Asgard (collectively, the “Reporting Persons”).

This Amendment is being filed to report recent purchases of Common Stock by the Reporting Persons. This Amendment amends and restates Items 3 and 5 of the Schedule 13D in their entirety as follows:

Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration

The net investment costs (including commissions, if any) of the shares of Common Stock purchased by the Reporting Persons is approximately $39,409,029. Currently, all shares of Common Stock are held by DBD Offshore and the Accounts.

Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer

(a) As of the date hereof, Mr. Carlson, Carlson Capital and Asgard report beneficial ownership of 3,006,168 shares of Common Stock, and DBD Offshore reports beneficial ownership of 2,036,141 shares of Common Stock, which represents 9.5% and 6.4%, respectively, of the Issuer’s outstanding shares of Common Stock, which such percentages were calculated by dividing (i) the 3,006,168 shares owned by Mr. Carlson, Carlson Capital and Asgard (which represents the shares held by DBD Offshore and the Accounts), and the 2,036,141 shares owned by DBD Offshore (which represents the shares it holds), respectively, by (ii) 31,717,315 shares of Common Stock outstanding as of November 5, 2007 as reported in a Form 10-Q filed by the Issuer with the Commission on November 7, 2007.

The filing of this statement on Schedule 13D shall not be construed as an admission that Mr. Carlson, Carlson Capital and Asgard are for the purposes of Section 13(d) or 13(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, the beneficial owner of any of the shares of Common Stock held by DBD Offshore and the Accounts. Pursuant to Rule 13d-4, Mr. Carlson, Carlson Capital and Asgard disclaim all such beneficial ownership.

(b) Mr. Carlson, Carlson Capital and Asgard, for the account of DBD Offshore and each of the Accounts, has the power to vote and dispose of the aggregate 3,006,168 shares of Common Stock held by DBD Offshore and the Accounts. DBD Offshore, for its own account, has the power to vote and dispose of the 2,036,141 shares of Common Stock it holds.

(c) The transactions in the Issuer’s securities by Reporting Persons in the last sixty days, and not previously reported by the Reporting Persons, are listed as Annex A attached hereto and made a part hereof.
