Each card carries a disclosed-size chip (HIGH / MEDIUM / LOW — how large the exposure is as a share of revenue, not how dangerous it is) and a nature tag: Built-in(the company’s own model, geography, or products) or Outside party (an external customer, supplier, or distributor it relies on).

W&T Offshore's concentration risk is overwhelmingly structural rather than counterparty-driven. The company's operations are almost entirely offshore in the Gulf of America, with a significant share of production, revenue, and cash flow further concentrated within its Mobile Bay Properties — both geographic exposures tied to the basin itself rather than to any single buyer. Layered on top is customer concentration: BP Products North America accounted for 33% of revenues from oil, NGL, and natural gas sales, while Shell Trading (US) Company accounted for 17%. Together these two counterparties represent half of those product-line revenues, though both are disclosed as revenue shares rather than volume commitments. The structural exposures — the Gulf basin and Mobile Bay — are the harder-to-diversify piece, since they reflect where the company's assets physically sit, while the customer concentration is more a function of the marketing arrangements typical in oil and gas sales, where large refiners and traders often account for outsized shares of offtake. None of the disclosed customer exposures individually rises above a medium share, but the combination of basin-level structural concentration and counterparty dependency means a regional disruption in the Gulf could compound with a marketing-partner issue rather than offset it.
