 Exhibit 10.8 
 AMENDMENT NO. 2 
 TO THE 

SUPERIOR ENERGY SERVICES, INC. 
 SUPPLEMENTAL EXECUTIVE RETIREMENT PLAN 
 WHEREAS, Superior Energy
Services, Inc. (“Superior”) adopted the Superior Energy Services, Inc. Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (the “Plan”), effective January 1, 2008; 
 WHEREAS, Section 9.01 of the Plan states that the Compensation Committee of Superior’s Board of Directors (“Compensation Committee”) may amend the Plan; 

WHEREAS, at its meeting on March 3, 2010, the Compensation Committee approved an amendment to the Plan eliminating the
requirement that the Compensation Committee annually approve the interest rate applied to Plan accounts, and the Compensation Committee authorized any executive officer of Superior to execute such amendment; 

WHEREAS, at its meeting on May 21, 2010, the Compensation Committee declared a discretionary contribution to the Plan account
for Mr. Kenneth L. Blanchard, and pursuant to Section 4.02 of the Plan, such declaration is part of the Plan document and shall be memorialized on Appendix C to the Plan; 

WHEREAS, at its meeting on December 10, 2010, the Board of Directors of Superior adopted resolutions delegating to the SERP
Administrative Committee the authority to adopt administrative and technical amendments to the Plan that do not materially increase the cost of the Plan; and 
 WHEREAS, the SERP Administrative Committee wishes to revise timing for the determination of the SERP earnings rate that applies for a given Plan Year; 

NOW THEREFORE, the Plan is amended as follows, as of the dates set forth below: 

I. 

Section 5.02 of the Plan, Earnings Allocations, is amended and restated effective March 3, 2010, as follows: 

5.02 Earnings Allocation. At the end of each Plan Year, each Participant’s Accounts will be adjusted to reflect
earnings on the average daily balance of the Accounts during the Plan Year at a rate established on an annual basis by the Administrative Committee in accordance with this Section 5.02. The earnings rate established by the Administrative
Committee shall be commensurate with Superior’s after-tax, long-term borrowing rate and may be applied retroactively or prospectively (e.g. made applicable to the prior, current, or subsequent Plan Year). Earnings shall be credited only
on Accounts that are on the books of the Company at the end of the Plan Year. However, Accounts or portions of Accounts 

  
 1 

 
that are distributed during a Plan Year will be credited with earnings from the beginning of the Plan Year through the day immediately preceding the distribution, at the earnings rate applicable
to the preceding Plan Year. Effective January 1, 2011, if the earnings rate for the Plan Year during which a distribution is made has been set by the Administrative Committee, then such rate shall apply to determine the earnings credited on the
portion that is distributed; otherwise, if the earnings rate for such Plan Year has not yet been established, then the earnings rate applicable to the previous Plan Year shall apply to determine the earnings on the portion that is distributed.

 II. 
 Appendix C to the Plan, Discretionary Contributions, is amended effective May 21, 2010 to memorialize changes to the Plan made by the Compensation Committee, by adding a new paragraph to read as
follows: 
 President & COO Contribution. In addition to the amounts credited to his Account in accordance
with Section 4.01 of the Plan, Kenneth L. Blanchard shall receive a fully vested contribution in the amount of $4,675,000, on the earliest of: (i) the date of Mr. Blanchard’s voluntary resignation as President and Chief Operating
Officer of the Company in December 2010; (ii) his becoming disabled; or (iii) his death. Such contribution shall be governed by the terms of the Plan, including but not limited to the time and manner of payment provisions of
Section 7.02 of the Plan. 
 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, this Amendment No. Two to the Plan is executed on the
    day of                     , 2011.

 WHEREAS, pursuant to the Plan the Committee has awarded to the Award Recipient restricted shares of Common Stock on the terms
and conditions specified below; 
 NOW, THEREFORE, the parties agree as follows: 

1.

Agreement, and in consideration of services rendered, Superior awarded to the Award Recipient <<Awards Granted>> restricted shares of Common Stock (the “Restricted Stock”), that vest, subject to Sections 2, 3 and 4

	  	Remaining balance

 2.
 AWARD RESTRICTIONS ON 
 RESTRICTED STOCK 

2.1 In addition to the conditions and restrictions provided in the Plan, neither the shares of Restricted Stock nor the right to vote the
Restricted Stock, to receive accrued dividends and other distributions thereon or to enjoy any other rights or interests thereunder or hereunder may be sold, assigned, donated, transferred, exchanged, pledged, hypothecated or otherwise encumbered
prior to vesting. All dividends and other distributions relating to the Restricted Stock will accrue when declared and be paid to the Award Recipient only upon the vesting of the related Restricted Stock. Except as otherwise provided in this
Section 2.1, the Award Recipient shall be entitled to all rights of a shareholder of Superior with respect to the Restricted Stock, including the right to vote the shares. 

 2.2 If the shares of Restricted Stock have not already vested in accordance with
Section 1 above, the shares of Restricted Stock shall vest and all restrictions set forth in Section 2.1 shall lapse on the earlier of: (a) the date on which the employment of the Award Recipient terminates as a result of any of the
events specified in Sections 3(a) or (b) below, (b) if permitted by the Committee in accordance with Section 3 below, retirement or termination by the Company, or (c) the occurrence of a Change of Control (as defined in the
Plan). 
 3.
 TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT 
 If the Award Recipient’s employment terminates as
the result of (a) death or (b) disability (within the meaning of Section 22(e)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”)), all unvested shares of Restricted Stock granted hereunder shall immediately
vest. Unless the Committee determines otherwise in the case of retirement of the Award Recipient or termination by the Company of the Award Recipient’s employment, termination of employment for any other reason, except termination upon a Change
of Control (as defined in the Plan), shall automatically result in the termination and forfeiture of all unvested Restricted Stock and any accrued dividends or other distributions related to such shares. 

4.
 FORFEITURE OF
AWARD 
 4.1 If the Award Recipient engages in grossly negligent conduct or intentional misconduct that either (i) requires
the Company’s financial statements to be restated at any time beginning on the Date of Grant and ending on the third anniversary of the end of the final vesting date set forth in Section 1 or (ii) results in an increase of the value
of the Restricted Stock upon vesting, then the Committee, after considering the costs and benefits to the Company of doing so, may seek recovery for the benefit of the Company of the difference between the shares of Common Stock received upon
vesting during the three-year period following such conduct and the shares of Common Stock that would have been received based on the restated financial statements or absent the increase described in part (ii) above (the “Excess
Shares”). All determinations regarding the amount of the Excess Shares shall be made solely by the Committee in good faith. 
 4.2 The shares of Restricted Stock granted hereunder are also subject to any clawback policies the Company may adopt in order to conform to the requirements of Section 954 of the Dodd-Frank Wall
Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and any resulting rules issued by the SEC or national securities exchanges thereunder. 
 4.3 If the Committee determines that the Award Recipient owes any amount to the Company under Sections 4.1 or 4.2 above, the Award Recipient shall return to the Company the Excess Shares (or the
shares recoverable under Section 4.2) acquired by the Award Recipient pursuant to this Agreement (or other securities into which such shares have been converted or exchanged) or, if no longer held by the Award Recipient, the Award Recipient
shall pay to the Company, without interest, all cash, securities or other assets received by the Award Recipient upon the sale or transfer of such shares. The Award Recipient acknowledges that the Company may, to the fullest extent permitted by
applicable law, deduct such amount owed from any 

  
 2 

 
amounts the Company owes the Award Recipient from time to time for any reason (including without limitation amounts owed to the Award Recipient as salary, wages, reimbursements or other
compensation, fringe benefits, retirement benefits or vacation pay). Whether or not the Company elects to make any such set-off in whole or in part, if the Company does not recover by means of set-off the full amount the Award Recipient owes it, the
Award Recipient hereby agrees to pay immediately the unpaid balance to the Company. 
 5.

ESCROW 
 5.1 The
shares of Restricted Stock will generally be represented in book or electronic entry rather than a physical certificate, and Superior shall take steps necessary to restrict transfer of the Restricted Stock as it deems necessary or advisable until
the lapse of restrictions under the terms hereof. In the event a stock certificates evidencing the Restricted Stock is issued, the certificate shall be retained by Superior until the lapse of restrictions under the terms hereof, and Superior shall
place a legend, in the form specified in the Plan, on such stock certificate restricting the transferability of the shares of Restricted Stock. 
 5.2 Upon the lapse of the restrictions on shares of Restricted Stock, Superior will credit the Award Recipient’s brokerage account with the vested shares of Restricted Stock and any accrued dividends
and distributions related to such shares of Restricted Stock. If the Award Recipient has not established a brokerage account, the shares and any accrued dividends and distributions due will be held by Superior’s transfer agent until such time
as the Award Recipient opens such an account. 
 6.
 WITHHOLDING TAXES; SECTION 409A 
 6.1 At the time that all or any portion of the
Restricted Stock vests, the Award Recipient must deliver to Superior the amount of income tax withholding required by law. In accordance with and subject to the terms of the Plan, the Award Recipient may satisfy the tax withholding obligation in
whole or in part by delivering currently owned shares of Common Stock or by electing to have Superior withhold from the shares the Award Recipient otherwise would receive hereunder shares of Common Stock having a value equal to the minimum amount
required to be withheld (as determined under the Plan). 
 6.2 It is intended that the payments and benefits provided under this
Agreement will comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code and any related implementing regulations or guidance (“Section 409A”) or an exemption therefrom. This Agreement shall be interpreted, construed,
administered, and governed in a manner that effects such intent. No acceleration of the vesting and payment of any accrued dividends and distributions shall be permitted unless permitted under Section 409A. 

7.
 ADDITIONAL
CONDITIONS 
 Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, if at any time Superior further determines, in its
sole discretion, that the listing, registration or qualification (or any 

  
 3 

 
updating of any such document) of the shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant hereto is necessary on any securities exchange or under any federal or state securities or blue sky law, or that the
consent or approval of any governmental regulatory body is necessary or desirable as a condition of, or in connection with the issuance of shares of Common Stock pursuant thereto, or the removal of any restrictions imposed on such shares, such
shares of Common Stock shall not be issued, in whole or in part, or the restrictions thereon removed, unless such listing, registration, qualification, consent or approval shall have been effected or obtained free of any conditions not acceptable to
Superior. Superior agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to issue all shares of Common Stock issuable hereunder on the terms provided herein. 
 8.
 NO CONTRACT OF EMPLOYMENT INTENDED

in any way with the right of the Company to terminate the Award Recipient’s employment relationship with the Company at any time. 
 9.

laws of descent and distribution, and shall not be subject to execution, attachment or similar process. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective heirs, executors, administrators, legal
representatives and permitted successors. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, whenever the term “Award Recipient” is used in any provision of this Agreement under circumstances where the provision appropriately applies to the
heirs, executors, administrators or legal representatives to whom this award may be transferred by will or by the laws of descent and distribution, the term “Award Recipient” shall be deemed to include such person or persons. 

10.

provisions of the Plan as fully as if all such provisions were set forth in their entirety in this Agreement. If any provision of this Agreement conflicts with a provision of the Plan, the Plan provision shall control. The Award Recipient

11.

 12.
 SEVERABILITY 

If any term or provision of this Agreement, or the application thereof to any person or circumstance, shall at any time or to any extent
be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect as written, the Award Recipient and Superior intend for any court construing this Agreement to modify or limit such provision so as to render it valid and enforceable to the fullest extent allowed

circumstances other than those as to which it is held invalid, illegal or unenforceable, shall not be affected thereby and each term and provision of this Agreement shall be valid and enforced to the fullest extent permitted by law. 

13.

void and ineffective for all purposes. The Award Recipient acknowledges that a waiver by Superior of a breach of any provision of this Agreement shall not operate or be construed as a waiver of any other provision of this Agreement, or of any
subsequent breach by the Award Recipient or any other Plan participant.
