     This Amendment No. 6 to the Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO (this “Amended Schedule TO”) amends and supplements the Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO originally filed with the Securities Exchange Commission on August 31, 2006, and amended by Amendment No. 1 to the Tender Offer Statement filed on September 11, 2006, Amendment No. 2 to the Tender Offer Statement filed on September 18, 2006, Amendment No. 3 to the Tender Offer Statement filed on September 22, 2006, Amendment No. 4 to the Tender Offer Statement filed on September 26, 2006 and Amendment No. 5 to the Tender Offer Statement filed on September 28, 2006 (as amended, the “Schedule TO”), by Woodside Petroleum Ltd., a company organized under the laws of Victoria, Australia (“Parent”), ATS Inc., a Delaware corporation and an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Parent (the “Purchaser”), and Woodside Finance Limited, a company incorporated under the laws of Victoria, Australia, and a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent, pursuant to Rule 14d-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), in connection with Purchaser’s offer to purchase all of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Common Stock”), of Energy Partners, Ltd., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and the associated preferred stock purchase rights (the “Rights” and, together with the Common Stock, the “Shares”) issued pursuant to the Rights Agreement with Mellon Investor Services LLC, dated as of September 14, 2006 (the “Rights Agreement”), for $23.00 per Share, net to the seller in cash (less applicable withholding taxes and without interest), subject to increase by $0.50 or $1.00 per Share to a total of $23.50 or $24.00 net per Share in cash depending on the resolution of certain litigation described in Purchaser’s Offer to Purchase, dated August 31, 2006, as amended (the “Offer to Purchase”). The terms and conditions of the offer are described in the Offer to Purchase and the accompanying Letter of Transmittal (the “Letter of Transmittal”) and the instructions thereto (the offer reflected by such terms and conditions, as they may be amended or supplemented from time to time, constitutes the “Offer”). Capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined in this Amended Schedule TO shall have the same meanings assigned to such terms in the Schedule TO or the Offer to Purchase.

ITEMS 1 THROUGH 9, AND ITEM 11

     All information in the Offer to Purchase and the related Letter of Transmittal, including all schedules thereto which were previously filed as exhibits to the Schedule TO, is incorporated by reference to Items 1 through 9 and Item 11 of the Schedule TO, except that such information is hereby amended and supplemented to the extent specifically provided herein.

The Offer to Purchase is hereby amended as follows:

1. The section under the heading “Delaware Litigation” in Section 15 (“Certain Legal Matters and Regulatory Approvals”) is hereby amended by adding the following paragraph after the tenth paragraph of such section:

“On September 12, the Company’s public stockholders filed an action in the Delaware Court of Chancery. The claims in the shareholder action overlap to a large extent with the claims brought by Purchaser in its Amended Complaint, and on September 18, 2006, the court ordered consolidation of the two actions.”

2. The section under the heading “Delaware Litigation” in Section 15 (“Certain Legal Matters and Regulatory Approvals”) is hereby amended by adding the following at the end of such section:

“On October 2, 2006, the Company wrote to the Delaware Court of Chancery, requesting clarification with respect to Section 6.2(e) of the Stone Energy Merger Agreement. In particular, the Company asked for a ruling that (i) the Company is permitted to “negotiate” with offerors of third-party acquisition proposals, including Purchaser; and (ii) the Company is permitted to “solicit” potential third-party acquisition proposals.

Also on October 2, Stone Energy filed a motion to dismiss Purchaser’s claims against it for aiding and abetting in the Company’s directors’ breaches of fiduciary duty.

On October 5, 2005, the Delaware Court of Chancery held a hearing on the Company’s motion to dismiss Purchaser’s remaining claims and its request to hear the in a preliminary injunction hearing rather than a trial. The court reserved judgment as to whether Purchaser has standing to bring the claims that are still in the litigation. The court also addressed the Company’s request for clarification concerning its earlier oral ruling on Section 6.2(e) of the Stone Energy Merger Agreement. The court indicated that it understood that Stone Energy had no objections against the Company negotiating with offerors of third-party acquisition proposals. The court further stated that it believed that no ripe dispute existed as to whether the Company has the ability to solicit other third-party acquisition proposals.”
