________________________________________________________________________________
Item 1.  Security and Issuer.

         This  Amendment  No. 1 to Schedule 13D (this  "Filing") is filed by the
undersigned  to amend and supplement the Schedule 13D, dated as of September 17,
2004 (the "Original 13D").  The Original 13D related to the common stock,  $0.01
par  value  ("Common  Stock"),  of  Blue  Dolphin  Energy  Company,  a  Delaware
corporation (the "Company"),  which has its principal  executive offices located
at 801 Travis,  Suite 2100,  Houston,  Texas 77002.  This Filing reports Western
Gulf Pipeline  Partners,  LP's  acquisition  of 458,333  additional  warrants to
purchase shares of Common Stock. Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise
defined shall have the meaning set forth in the Original 13D.
________________________________________________________________________________
Item 2.  Identity and Background.

1(b),  2(b),  and 3(b) of Item 2 of the Original 13D are amended and restated in
their entirety, respectively, to read as follows:

         "1000 Louisiana, Suite 1500, Houston, Texas 77002-5007"

________________________________________________________________________________
Item 3.  Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.

         Item 3 of the  Original  13D is amended and restated in its entirety to
read as follows:

         "Funds of $275,000 for its  promissory  note (as  explained  below) and
         funds for the purchase of the Western Gulf Initial Warrants and Western
         Gulf  Additional  Warrants (as defined  below) came from Western Gulf's
         working capital reserves. Any funds needed for any anticipated exercise
         of the  Western  Gulf  Initial  Warrants  and Western  Gulf  Additional
         Warrants by Western Gulf are expected to come from its working  capital
         reserves."
________________________________________________________________________________
Item 4.  Purpose of Transaction.

         Item 4 of the  Original  13D is amended and restated in its entirety to
read as follows:

         "On September 8, 2004,  Company, on the one hand, and Western Gulf, and
         numerous other investors,  on the other hand, signed a Note and Warrant
         Purchase  Agreement (the  "Agreement")  whereby  Western Gulf and other
         investors  agreed to provide a total of  $750,000  worth of  individual
         promissory notes to Company. The Agreement also authorized the sale and
         issuance of 1,250,000  warrants to purchase  shares of the Common Stock
         to  Western  Gulf and the other  investors  (the  "Initial  Warrants").
         Pursuant to the Agreement, on September 8, 2004, Western Gulf purchased
         458,334 of the 1,250,000 warrants ("Western Gulf Initial Warrants").

         On  November  11,  2004,  pursuant  to  the  Agreement,  the  Company's
         stockholders  held a special  meeting  ("Special  Meeting"),  and inter
         alia,  approved the sale and issuance of 1,550,000  additional warrants
         ("Additional  Warrants")  to purchase  shares of the  Company's  Common
         Stock to Western  Gulf and the other  investors.  On November 30, 2004,
         Western Gulf  purchased  458,333 of the 1,550,000  Additional  Warrants
         ("Western Gulf Additional Warrants").

         At  the  Special  Meeting,  the  Company's  stockholders  also  granted
         warrants  to  acquire  300,000  shares,  in total,  of Common  Stock to
         certain  members of the Company's  Board of Directors.  (the  "Director
         Warrants").

         The persons  signing  this Filing have not  acquired or disposed of any
         shares of the  Company's  Common Stock in the public market but reserve
         the right to do so in the future.

         The persons  signing  this Filing  may,  from time to time,  propose to
         Company  management  transactions  which, in the opinion of the persons
         signing this Filing,  have the potential to augment,  expand or improve
         the  Company's  business  and which could  affect  changes in the items
         described below.  However,  other than as set forth in this Item 4, the
         persons signing this Filing do not have any specific plans or proposals
         which  relate  to  or  would  result  in  any  extraordinary  corporate
         transaction, such as a merger, reorganization or liquidation, involving
         the  Company  or any of its  subsidiaries;  a  sale  or  transfer  of a
         material  amount of assets of the  Company or any of its  subsidiaries;
         any change in the  present  board of  directors  or  management  of the
         Company; any change in the present capitalization or dividend policy of
         the Company;  any other  material  change in the Company's  business or
         corporate  structure;  changes  in the  Company's  charter,  bylaws  or
         instruments corresponding thereto or other actions which may impede the
