Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
INTRODUCTION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION	INTRODUCTION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION Introduction CorEnergy Infrastructure Trust, Inc. ("CorEnergy" or "the Company"), was organized as a Maryland corporation and commenced operations on December 8, 2005. The Company's common shares are listed on the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE") under the symbol "CORR" and the depositary shares representing its Series A Preferred Stock are listed on the NYSE under the symbol "CORR PrA". The Company is primarily focused on acquiring and financing real estate assets within the U.S. energy infrastructure sector and concurrently entering into long-term triple-net participating leases with energy companies. The Company also may provide other types of capital, including loans secured by energy infrastructure assets. Targeted assets include pipelines, storage tanks, transmission lines, and gathering systems, among others. These sale-leaseback or real property mortgage transactions provide the energy company with a source of capital that is an alternative to other sources such as corporate borrowing, bond offerings, or equity offerings. Many of the Company's leases contain participation features in the financial performance or value of the underlying infrastructure real property asset. The triple-net lease structure requires that the tenant pay all operating expenses of the business conducted by the tenant, including real estate taxes, insurance, utilities, and expenses of maintaining the asset in good working order. CorEnergy considers its investments in these energy infrastructure assets to be a single business segment and reports them accordingly in its financial statements. In 2013 CorEnergy qualified, and in March 2014 elected (effective as of January 1, 2013), to be treated as a REIT for federal income tax purposes. Because certain of the Company's assets may not produce REIT-qualifying income or be treated as interests in real property, those assets are held in wholly-owned Taxable REIT Subsidiaries ("TRSs") in order to limit the potential that such assets and income could prevent the Company from qualifying as a REIT. The Company's use of TRSs enables it to continue to engage in certain businesses while complying with REIT qualification requirements and also allows it to retain income generated by these businesses for reinvestment without the requirement of distributing those earnings. In the future, the Company may elect to reorganize and transfer certain assets or operations from its TRSs to the Company or other subsidiaries, including qualified REIT subsidiaries. TRSs hold the Company's securities portfolio, operating businesses and certain financing notes receivable. Basis of Presentation and Use of Estimates The accompanying consolidated financial statements include CorEnergy accounts and the accounts of its wholly-owned subsidiaries and have been prepared in accordance with GAAP set forth in the ASC, as published by the FASB, and with the SEC instructions to Form 10-Q, and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. The accompanying consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the Company's financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the periods presented. There were no adjustments that, in the opinion of management, were not of a normal and recurring nature. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation, and the Company's net earnings are reduced by the portion of net earnings attributable to non-controlling interests. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2017 or any other interim or annual period. These consolidated financial statements and Management's Discussion and Analysis of the Financial Condition and Results of Operations should be read in conjunction with CorEnergy's Annual Report on Form 10-K, for the year ended December 31, 2016 , filed with the SEC on March 2, 2017 (the "2016 CorEnergy 10-K").

Accounting Policies [Abstract]
RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS	RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09 "Revenue from Contracts with Customers " ("ASU 2014-09"), which requires an entity to recognize the amount of revenue to which it expects to be entitled for the transfer of promised goods or services to customers. The standard was originally effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016 and permits the use of either the retrospective or cumulative effect transition method. On July 9, 2015, the FASB approved a one-year deferral of the effective date making the standard effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017. The Company is currently planning to use the modified retrospective transition method. The Company is also currently evaluating the impact that this standard will have on its consolidated financial statements and disclosures, as well as its processes and internal controls. As part of its assessment work, the Company has formed an implementation team, completed training on the new revenue recognition model and is undertaking a review of its contracts. However, the Company does not expect that adoption of the standard will have a significant impact on its consolidated financial statements, as a substantial portion of its revenue consists of rental income from leasing arrangements, which is specifically excluded from ASU 2014-09. In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-01 "Financial Instruments — Overall: Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities," which will require entities to measure their investments at fair value and recognize any changes in fair value in net income unless the investments qualify for the new practicability exception. The practicability exception will be available for equity investments that do not have readily determinable fair values. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting the new standard but does not believe that its adoption will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements. In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02 "Leases" ("ASU 2016-02"), which amends the existing accounting standards for lease accounting, including requiring lessees to recognize most leases on their balance sheets and making targeted changes to lessor accounting. ASU 2016-02 is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted. At adoption, the standard will be applied using a modified retrospective approach. Management is in the process of evaluating the impact of the standard on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13 "Financial Instruments - Credit Losses" ("ASU 2016-13"), which introduces an approach based on expected losses to estimate credit losses on certain types of financial instruments. The new model, referred to as the current expected credit losses ("CECL model"), will apply to financial assets subject to credit losses and measured at amortized cost, and certain off-balance sheet credit exposures. ASU 2016-13 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within that fiscal year. Early application of the guidance will be permitted for all entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Management is currently evaluating the impact that adopting the new standard will have on the Company's consolidated financial statements but believes that, unless the Company acquires any additional financing receivables, the impact will not be material. In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, "Statement of Cash Flows: Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments." This new standard will make eight targeted changes to how cash receipts and cash payments are presented and classified in the statement of cash flows. The new standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017 and will require adoption on a retrospective basis unless it is impracticable to apply, in which case we would be required to apply the amendments prospectively as of the earliest date practicable. Management is currently evaluating the impact of the new standard but does not expect that its adoption will have a material impact. In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-01, "Clarifying the Definition of a Business," which clarifies the definition of "a business" to assist entities with evaluating whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions or disposals of assets or businesses. The standard introduces a screen for determining when assets acquired are not a business and clarifies that a business must include, at a minimum, an input and a substantive process that contribute to an output to be considered a business. This standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within that reporting period. Early adoption is allowed for transactions where the acquisition (or subsidiary deconsolidation) occurs before the effective date of the amendments and the transaction has not been previously reported in the financial statements. Management is currently evaluating the impact and timing of adopting the new standard. In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, "Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment" ("ASU 2017-04"), which simplifies how an entity is required to test goodwill for impairment by eliminating Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. Step 2 measures a goodwill impairment loss by comparing the implied fair value of a reporting unit’s goodwill with the carrying amount of that goodwill. Under the amendments in ASU 2017-04, an entity should recognize an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value; however, the loss recognized should not exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. The standard is effective for annual or interim tests performed in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted for goodwill impairment tests performed on testing dates after January 1, 2017. Effective January 1, 2017, Management has elected to early adopt this standard in connection with its goodwill impairment testing performed subsequent to January 1, 2017. As the standard will be applied prospectively, for measurement of goodwill impairment losses when an impairment is indicated, the impact of adoption to the financial statements will depend on various factors. However, elimination of the second step will reduce the complexity and cost of measuring any such impairment.

Leases [Abstract]
LEASED PROPERTIES AND LEASES	LEASED PROPERTIES AND LEASES As of June 30, 2017 , the Company had three significant leased properties located in Oregon, Wyoming, Louisiana, and the Gulf of Mexico, which are leased on a triple-net basis to major tenants, described in the table below. These major tenants are responsible for the payment of all taxes, maintenance, repairs, insurance, and other operating expenses relating to the leased properties. The long-term, triple-net leases generally have an initial term of 11 to 15 years with options for renewals. Lease payments are scheduled to increase at varying intervals during the initial terms of the leases. The following table summarizes the significant leased properties, major tenants and lease terms: Summary of Leased Properties, Major Tenants and Lease Terms Property Grand Isle Gathering System Pinedale LGS (1) Portland Terminal Facility Location Gulf of Mexico/Louisiana Pinedale, WY Portland, OR Tenant Energy XXI GIGS Services, LLC Ultra Wyoming LGS, LLC Arc Terminals Holdings LLC Asset Description Approximately 153 miles of offshore pipeline with total capacity of 120 thousand Bbls/d, including a 16-acre onshore terminal and saltwater disposal system.

As a result, the tenants' financial results are highly dependent on the performance of the oil and natural gas industry, which is highly competitive and subject to volatility. During the terms of the leases, management monitors the credit quality of its tenants by reviewing their published credit ratings, if available, reviewing publicly available financial statements, or reviewing financial or other operating statements, monitoring news reports regarding the tenants and their respective businesses, and monitoring the timeliness of lease payments and the performance of other financial covenants under their leases.

Receivables [Abstract]
FINANCING NOTES RECEIVABLE	FINANCING NOTES RECEIVABLE Financing notes receivable are presented at face value plus accrued interest receivable and deferred loan origination costs, and net of related direct loan origination income. Each quarter the Company reviews its financing notes receivable to determine if the balances are realizable based on factors affecting the collectability of those balances. Factors may include credit quality, timeliness of required periodic payments, past due status, and management discussions with obligors. The Company evaluates the collectability of both interest and principal of each of its loans to determine if an allowance is needed. An allowance will be recorded when, based on current information and events, the Company determines it is probable that it will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the existing contractual terms. If the Company does determine an allowance is necessary, the amount deemed uncollectable is expensed in the period of determination. An insignificant delay or shortfall in the amount of payments does not necessarily result in the recording of an allowance. Generally, when interest and/or principal payments on a loan become past due, or if management otherwise does not expect the borrower to be able to service its debt and other obligations, the Company will place the loan on non-accrual status and will generally cease recognizing financing revenue on that loan until all principal and interest have been brought current. Interest income recognition is resumed if and when the previously reserved for financing notes become contractually current and performance has been demonstrated. Payments received subsequent to the recording of an allowance will be recorded as a reduction to principal. Black Bison Financing Notes On February 29, 2016, the Company foreclosed on 100 percent of the equity of BB Intermediate, the borrower of the Black Bison financing notes, as well as all of the other collateral securing the Black Bison Loans. The foreclosure was accepted in satisfaction of $2.0 million of the total outstanding loan balance. On June 16, 2016, the Company entered into an asset sale agreement with Expedition Water Solutions for the sale of specified disposal wells and related equipment as outlined in the sale agreement. Consideration received by the company included $748 thousand cash, net of fees, and the future right to royalty payments, which was recorded at its fair value of $450 thousand . The rights to future cash payments are tied to the future volumes of water disposed of in each of the wells sold. The Company did not record any financing revenue related to the Black Bison Loans for the six months ended June 30, 2016 or any subsequent period. These notes were considered by the Company to be on non-accrual status and were reflected as such in the financial statements. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 the Company recorded $369 thousand and $832 thousand , respectively, in provision for loan losses related to the Black Bison Loans. Four Wood Financing Note Receivable As a result of the decreased economic activity by SWD, the Company recorded a provision for loan loss with respect to the SWD Loans. The Consolidated Statements of Income for the six months ended June 30, 2016 reflect a Provision for Loan Loss of $3.5 million , which includes $71 thousand of deferred origination income and $98 thousand of interest accrued under the original loan agreements. The loans were placed on non-accrual status during the first quarter of 2016.

Variable Interest Entities

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES	VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES The FASB issued ASU 2015-02, "Consolidations (Topic 810) - Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis" ("ASU 2015-02"), which amended previous consolidation guidance, including introducing a separate consolidation analysis specific to limited partnerships and other similar entities. Under this analysis, limited partnerships and other similar entities are considered a VIE unless the limited partners hold substantive kick-out rights or participating rights. Management determined that Pinedale LP and Grand Isle Corridor LP are VIEs under the amended guidance because the limited partners of both partnerships lack both substantive kick-out rights and participating rights. As such, management evaluated the qualitative criteria under FASB ASC Topic 810 - Consolidation in conjunction with ASU 2015-02 to make a determination whether these partnerships should be consolidated on the Company's financial statements. ASC Topic 810-10 requires the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity's activities to consolidate the VIE. The primary beneficiary is identified as the enterprise that has a) the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact the entity's economic performance and b) the obligation to absorb losses of the entity that could potentially be significant to the VIE or the right to receive benefits from the entity that could potentially be significant to the VIE. The standard requires an ongoing analysis to determine whether the variable interest gives rise to a controlling financial interest in the VIE. Based on the general partners’ roles and rights as afforded by the partnership agreements and its exposure to losses and benefits of each of the partnerships through its significant limited partner interests, management determined that CorEnergy is the primary beneficiary of both Pinedale LP and Grand Isle Corridor LP. Based upon that evaluation, the consolidated financial statements presented include full consolidation with respect to both of the partnerships.

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]
INCOME TAXES	INCOME TAXES Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effect of temporary differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities for financial reporting and tax purposes. Components of the Company’s deferred tax assets and liabilities as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 , are as follows: Deferred Tax Assets and Liabilities June 30, 2017 December 31, 2016 Deferred Tax Assets: Net operating loss carryforwards $ 1,533,957 $ 1,144,818 Net unrealized loss on investment securities 34,119 61,430 Cost recovery of leased and fixed assets 669,143 739,502 Loan Loss Provision 385,180 608,086 Other loss carryforwards 3,929,335 3,187,181 Sub-total $ 6,551,734 $ 5,741,017 Deferred Tax Liabilities: Basis reduction of investment in partnerships $ (2,199,063 ) $ (2,158,746 ) Cost recovery of leased and fixed assets (2,333,620 ) (1,823,982 ) Sub-total $ (4,532,683 ) $ (3,982,728 ) Total net deferred tax asset $ 2,019,051 $ 1,758,289 As of June 30, 2017 , the total deferred tax assets and liabilities presented above relate to the Company's TRSs. The Company recognizes the tax benefits of uncertain tax positions only when the position is "more likely than not" to be sustained upon examination by the tax authorities based on the technical merits of the tax position. The Company’s policy is to record interest and penalties on uncertain tax positions as part of tax expense. Tax years subsequent to the year ended December 31, 2012 remain open to examination by federal and state tax authorities. Total income tax expense (benefit) differs from the amount computed by applying the federal statutory income tax rate of 35 percent for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 to income or loss from operations and other income and expense for the periods presented, as follows: Income Tax Expense (Benefit) For the Three Months Ended For the Six Months Ended June 30, 2017 June 30, 2016 June 30, 2017 June 30, 2016 Application of statutory income tax rate $ 3,158,922 $ 3,277,737 $ 5,726,827 $ 4,025,336 State income taxes, net of federal tax expense (benefit) 3,786 25,234 (31,651 ) (58,026 ) Federal Tax Attributable to Income of Real Estate Investment Trust (3,066,973 ) (2,892,533 ) (5,932,047 ) (4,811,998 ) Total income tax expense (benefit) $ 95,735 $ 410,438 $ (236,871 ) $ (844,688 ) Total income taxes are computed by applying the federal statutory rate of 35 percent plus a blended state income tax rate. Corridor Public Holdings, Inc. and Corridor Private Holdings, Inc. had a blended state rate of approximately 3.78 percent for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2.82 percent for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 . CorEnergy BBWS, Inc. does not record a provision for state income taxes because it operates only in Wyoming, which does not have state income tax. Because Mowood Corridor, Inc. and Corridor MoGas, Inc. primarily only operate in the state of Missouri, a blended state income tax rate of 5 percent was used for the operations of both TRSs for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 . For the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 , all of the income tax benefit presented above relates to the assets and activities held in the Company's TRSs. The components of income tax expense (benefit) include the following for the periods presented: Components of Income Tax Expense (Benefit) For the Three Months Ended For the Six Months Ended June 30, 2017 June 30, 2016 June 30, 2017 June 30, 2016 Current tax expense (benefit) Federal $ 52,031 $ 188,467 $ 21,562 $ (438,730 ) State (net of federal tax benefit) 5,620 15,185 2,329 (35,349 ) Total current tax expense (benefit) $ 57,651 $ 203,652 $ 23,891 $ (474,079 ) Deferred tax expense (benefit) Federal $ 39,918 $ 196,737 $ (226,782 ) $ (347,932 ) State (net of federal tax benefit) (1,834 ) 10,049 (33,980 ) (22,677 ) Total deferred tax expense (benefit) $ 38,084 $ 206,786 $ (260,762 ) $ (370,609 ) Total income tax expense (benefit), net $ 95,735 $ 410,438 $ (236,871 ) $ (844,688 ) As of December 31, 2016 , the TRSs had an aggregate net operating loss of $3.0 million . The net operating loss may be carried forward for 20 years. If not utilized, this net operating loss will expire as follows: $90 thousand , $804 thousand , $479 thousand and $1.7 million in the years ending December 31, 2033, 2034, 2035 and 2036 respectively.

FAIR VALUE	FAIR VALUE The following tables set forth the Company's assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis, by level within the fair value hierarchy, as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 . June 30, 2017 Fair Value Total Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Assets: Other equity securities $ 9,147,158 $ — $ — $ 9,147,158 Interest Rate Swap Derivative 43,777 — 43,777 — Total Assets $ 9,190,935 $ — $ 43,777 $ 9,147,158 December 31, 2016 Fair Value Total Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Assets: Other equity securities $ 9,287,209 $ — $ — $ 9,287,209 Interest Rate Swap Derivative 19,950 — 19,950 — Total Assets $ 9,307,159 $ — $ 19,950 $ 9,287,209 At June 30, 2017 , the only assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis were the Company's derivatives and its equity securities. On March 30, 2016, the Company terminated one of the cash flow hedges with a notional amount of $26.3 million concurrent with the assignment of the Pinedale Credit Facility. The remaining cash flow hedge was de-designated from hedge accounting as of March 30, 2016, and continues to be valued using a consistent methodology and therefore is classified as a Level 2 measurement. Subsequent to de-designation, changes in the fair value are recognized in earnings in the period in which the changes occur. The valuation of the interest rate swaps are determined using widely accepted valuation techniques including discounted cash flow analysis on the expected cash flows of each derivative. This analysis reflects the contractual terms of the derivatives, including the period to maturity, and uses observable market-based inputs, including forward interest rate curves. The inputs used to value the derivatives fall primarily within Level 2 of the value hierarchy. The changes for all Level 3 securities measured at fair value on a recurring basis using significant unobservable inputs for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 are as follows: Level 3 Rollforward For the Six Months Ended June 30, 2017 Fair Value Beginning Balance Acquisitions Disposals Total Realized and Unrealized Gains/(Losses) Included in Net Income Return of Capital Adjustments Impacting Cost Basis of Securities Fair Value Ending Balance Changes in Unrealized Losses, Included In Net Income, Relating to Securities Still Held (1) Other equity securities $ 9,287,209 $ — $ — $ 70,426 $ (210,477 ) $ 9,147,158 $ 70,426 Total $ 9,287,209 $ — $ — $ 70,426 $ (210,477 ) $ 9,147,158 $ 70,426 For the Six Months Ended June 30, 2016 Other equity securities $ 8,393,683 $ — $ — $ (472,416 ) $ 114,869 $ 8,036,136 $ (472,416 ) Total $ 8,393,683 $ — $ — $ (472,416 ) $ 114,869 $ 8,036,136 $ (472,416 ) (1) Located in Net realized and unrealized gain on other equity securities in the Consolidated Statements of Income The Company utilizes the beginning of reporting period method for determining transfers between levels. There were no transfers between levels 1, 2 or 3 for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 . Valuation Techniques and Unobservable Inputs The Company’s other equity securities, which represent securities issued by private companies, are classified as Level 3 assets and the Company has elected to report at fair value under the fair value option. Significant judgment is required in selecting the assumptions used to determine the fair values of these investments. As of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 , the Company’s investment in Lightfoot is its only remaining significant private company investment. Lightfoot, in turn, owns a combination of public and private investments. Therefore, Lightfoot was valued using a combination of the following valuation techniques: (i) public share price of private companies' investments, and (ii) discounted cash flow analysis using an estimated discount rate of 15.7 percent to 17.7 percent and 15.3 percent to 17.3 percent as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 , respectively. Due to the inherent uncertainty of determining the fair value of investments that do not have a readily available market value, the fair value of the Company’s investment may fluctuate from period to period. Additionally, the fair value of the Company’s investment may differ from the values that would have been used had a ready market existed for such investment and may differ materially from the values that the Company may ultimately realize. As of both June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 , the Company held a 6.6 percent and 1.5 percent equity interest in Lightfoot LP and Lightfoot GP, respectively. Lightfoot’s assets include an ownership interest in Gulf LNG, a 1.5 billion cubic feet per day ("bcf/d") receiving, storage, and regasification terminal in Pascagoula, Mississippi, and common units and subordinated units representing an approximately 40 percent aggregate limited partner interest, and a noneconomic general partner interest, in Arc Logistics Partners LP (NYSE: ARCX). The Company holds observation rights on Lightfoot's Board of Directors. Certain condensed combined unaudited financial information of the unconsolidated affiliate, Lightfoot, is presented in the following tables: June 30, 2017 December 31, 2016 (Unaudited) (in thousands) Assets Current assets $ 17,787 $ 20,412 Noncurrent assets 693,156 698,745 Total Assets $ 710,943 $ 719,157 Liabilities Current liabilities $ 14,902 $ 14,718 Noncurrent liabilities 271,320 268,805 Total Liabilities $ 286,222 $ 283,523 Partner's equity 424,721 435,634 Total liabilities and partner's equity $ 710,943 $ 719,157 For the Three Months Ended For the Six Months Ended June 30, 2017 June 30, 2016 June 30, 2017 June 30, 2016 (Unaudited) (in thousands) Revenues $ 26,586 $ 26,243 $ 52,511 $ 52,310 Operating expenses 22,803 20,812 45,274 42,884 Income (Loss) from Operations $ 3,783 $ 5,431 $ 7,237 $ 9,426 Other income 1,860 2,369 3,770 4,743 Net Income $ 5,643 $ 7,800 $ 11,007 $ 14,169 Less: Net Income attributable to non-controlling interests (1,977 ) (5,070 ) (5,107 ) (9,077 ) Net Income attributable to Partner's Capital $ 3,666 $ 2,730 $ 5,900 $ 5,092 The following section describes the valuation methodologies used by the Company for estimating fair value for financial instruments not recorded at fair value, but fair value is included for disclosure purposes only, as required under disclosure guidance related to the fair value of financial instruments. Cash and Cash Equivalents — The carrying value of cash, amounts due from banks, federal funds sold and securities purchased under resale agreements approximates fair value. Financing Notes Receivable — The financing notes receivable are valued on a non-recurring basis. The financing notes receivable are reviewed for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable.

(2) A portion of the unamortized deferred financing costs, related to our revolving credit facilities, are included in Deferred Costs in the Assets section of the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Refer to the "Deferred Financing Costs" paragraph below. CorEnergy Credit Facility The Company maintains a credit facility with Regions Bank (as lender and administrative agent for the other participating lenders) to provide borrowing commitments of $153.0 million , consisting of (i) a $105.0 million revolver at the CorEnergy parent entity level (the "CorEnergy Revolver"), (ii) a $45.0 million term loan at the CorEnergy parent entity level (the "CorEnergy Term Loan") and (iii) a $3.0 million revolving credit facility at the MoGas subsidiary entity level (the "MoGas Revolver" and, collectively with the CorEnergy Revolver and the CorEnergy Term Loan, the "CorEnergy Credit Facility"). The CorEnergy Credit Facility has a maturity date of December 15, 2019. Borrowings under the credit facility will generally bear interest on the outstanding principal amount using a LIBOR pricing grid that is expected to equal a LIBOR rate plus an applicable margin of 2.75 percent to 3.75 percent , based on the Company's senior secured recourse leverage ratio. Total availability is subject to a borrowing base. The CorEnergy Credit Facility contains, among other restrictions, certain financial covenants including the maintenance of certain financial ratios, as well as default and cross-default provisions customary for transactions of this nature (with applicable customary grace periods). As of June 30, 2017, the Company was in compliance with all covenants of the CorEnergy Credit Facility. On April 18, 2017, the Company repaid the $44.0 million in outstanding borrowings on the CorEnergy Revolver with a portion of the proceeds from a follow-on offering of its 7.375% Series A Preferred Stock, as discussed further in Note 11 ("Stockholder's Equity") . As of June 30, 2017, the Company had approximately $98.2 million and $3.0 million of availability under the CorEnergy Revolver and MoGas Revolver, respectively. On July 28, 2017 , the Company entered into an amendment and restatement of the CorEnergy Credit Facility with Regions Bank (as lender and administrative agent for other participating lenders). See Note 13 ("Subsequent Events") for further discussion of the amended and restated credit facility. Pinedale Credit Facility On December 20, 2012, Pinedale LP closed on a $70.0 million secured term credit facility. Outstanding balances under the original facility generally accrued interest at a variable annual rate equal to LIBOR plus 3.25 percent . This credit facility was secured by the Pinedale LGS asset. The credit facility remained in effect until December 31, 2015, with an option to extend through December 31, 2016. Although the Company elected not to extend the facility for an additional one-year period, it did amend the facility to extend the maturity date to March 30, 2016. During the extension period, the company made principal payments of $3.2 million and the credit facility bore interest on the outstanding principal amount at LIBOR plus 4.25 percent . On March 4, 2016, the Company obtained a consent from its lenders under the CorEnergy Credit Facility, which permitted the Company to utilize the CorEnergy Revolving Credit Facility to refinance the Company's pro rata share of the remaining balance of the Pinedale secured term credit facility. On March 30, 2016, the Company and Prudential ("the Refinancing Lenders"), refinanced the remaining $58.5 million principal balance of the $70.0 million credit facility (on a pro rata basis equal to their respective equity interests in Pinedale LP, with the Company’s 81.05 percent share being approximately $47.4 million ) and executed a series of agreements assigning the credit facility to CorEnergy Infrastructure Trust, Inc. as Agent for the Refinancing Lenders. The facility was further modified to extend the maturity date to March 30, 2021; to increase the LIBOR Rate to the greater of (i) 1.00 percent and (ii) the one-month LIBOR rate; and to increase the LIBOR Rate Spread to 7.00 percent per annum. The Company's portion of the debt and interest is eliminated in consolidation and Prudential's portion of the debt is shown as a related-party liability. The Company also terminated one of two related interest rate swaps with a notional amount of $26.3 million . Pinedale LP's credit facility with the Refinancing Lenders limits distributions by Pinedale LP to the Company. Such distributions are permitted to the extent required for the Company to maintain its REIT qualification, so long as Pinedale LP's obligations under the credit facility have not been accelerated following an Event of Default (as defined in the credit facility). Pinedale LP automatically entered into a Cash Control Period (as defined in the credit facility) with the Refinancing Lenders upon the April 29, 2016 bankruptcy filing by Ultra Wyoming and its parent guarantor, Ultra Petroleum. During the Cash Control Period, the Company as Agent swept all funds for the repayment of accrued interest, scheduled principal payments and principal prepayments on the loans. Ultra Petroleum emerged from bankruptcy in April 2017, resulting in the end of the Cash Control Period and, in May 2017, Pinedale LP resumed distributions. The Company has provided to Prudential a guarantee against certain inappropriate conduct by or on behalf of Pinedale LP or us. The credit facility also requires Pinedale LP to maintain minimum net worth levels and certain leverage ratios, which along with other provisions of the credit facility limit cash dividends and loans to the Company. At June 30, 2017 , the net assets of Pinedale LP were $146.1 million and Pinedale LP was in compliance with all of the financial covenants of the Pinedale Credit Facility. Deferred Financing Costs The CorEnergy Credit Facility's deferred financing costs, net, as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 were $1.7 million and $2.2 million , respectively. This portion of deferred financing costs relate to a revolving credit facility and are not presented as a reduction to long-term debt but rather as deferred costs in the assets section of the Consolidated Balance Sheets. A summary of deferred financing cost amortization expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 is as follows: For the Three Months Ended For the Six Months Ended June 30, 2017 June 30, 2016 June 30, 2017 June 30, 2016 CorEnergy Credit Facility $ 272,074 $ 272,076 $ 544,148 $ 534,378 Pinedale Credit Facility — — — 156,330 Total Deferred Debt Cost Amortization Expense (1)(2) $ 272,074 $ 272,076 $ 544,148 $ 690,708 (1) Amortization of deferred debt issuance costs is included in interest expense in the Consolidated Statements of Income.

The Convertible Notes mature on June 15, 2020 and bear interest at a rate of 7.00 percent per annum, payable semi-annually in arrears on June 15 and December 15 of each year, beginning on December 15, 2015. On May 23, 2016, the Company repurchased $1.0 million of its convertible bonds on the open market. The following is a summary of the impact of Convertible Notes on interest expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 : Convertible Note Interest Expense For the Three Months Ended For the Six Months Ended June 30, 2017 June 30, 2016 June 30, 2017 June 30, 2016 7.00% Convertible Notes $ 1,995,000 $ 1,983,528 $ 3,990,000 $ 3,996,028 Discount Amortization 184,728 185,727 369,456 373,962 Deferred Debt Issuance Amortization 12,069 12,703 24,138 24,958 Total Convertible Note Interest Expense $ 2,191,797 $ 2,181,958 $ 4,383,594 $ 4,394,948 The Convertible Notes were initially issued with an underwriters' discount of $3.7 million which is being amortized over the life of the Convertible Notes. Including the impact of the convertible debt discount and related deferred debt issuance costs, the effective interest rate on the Convertible Notes is approximately 7.7 percent for each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 .

Subsequent Events [Abstract]
SUBSEQUENT EVENTS	SUBSEQUENT EVENTS The Company performed an evaluation of subsequent events through the date of the issuance of these financial statements and determined that no additional items require recognition or disclosure, except for the following: Common Stock Dividend Declaration On August 1, 2017, the Company's Board of Directors declared the 2017 second quarter dividend of $0.75 per share for CorEnergy common stock. The dividend is payable on August 31, 2017 to shareholders of record on August 17, 2017.

The preferred stock dividend is payable on August 31, 2017 to shareholders of record on August 17, 2017. Amendment and Restatement of CorEnergy Credit Facility On July 28, 2017 , the Company entered into an amendment and restatement of the CorEnergy Credit Facility with Regions Bank (as lender and administrative agent for other participating lenders). The amended facility provides for commitments of up to $161.0 million , comprised of (i) increased commitments on the CorEnergy Revolver of up to $160.0 million , subject to borrowing base limitations, and (ii) a $1.0 million commitment on the MoGas Revolver. The amended facility has a 5 -year term maturing on July 28, 2022 , and provides for a springing maturity on February 28, 2020, and thereafter, if the Company fails to meet certain liquidity requirements from the springing maturity date through the maturity of the Company's convertible notes on June 15, 2020. Other terms of the amended and restated CorEnergy Credit Facility are substantially the same as the prior facility. Borrowings under the credit facility will generally bear interest on the outstanding principal amount using a LIBOR pricing grid that is expected to equal a LIBOR rate plus an applicable margin of 2.75 percent to 3.75 percent , based on the Company's senior secured recourse leverage ratio. The CorEnergy Credit Facility contains, among other restrictions, certain financial covenants including the maintenance of certain financial ratios, as well as default and cross-default provisions customary for transactions of this nature (with applicable customary grace periods).

Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Basis of Presentation and Use of Estimates	Basis of Presentation and Use of Estimates The accompanying consolidated financial statements include CorEnergy accounts and the accounts of its wholly-owned subsidiaries and have been prepared in accordance with GAAP set forth in the ASC, as published by the FASB, and with the SEC instructions to Form 10-Q, and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. The accompanying consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the Company's financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the periods presented. There were no adjustments that, in the opinion of management, were not of a normal and recurring nature. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation, and the Company's net earnings are reduced by the portion of net earnings attributable to non-controlling interests. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2017 or any other interim or annual period. These consolidated financial statements and Management's Discussion and Analysis of the Financial Condition and Results of Operations should be read in conjunction with CorEnergy's Annual Report on Form 10-K, for the year ended December 31, 2016 , filed with the SEC on March 2, 2017 (the "2016 CorEnergy 10-K").
Recent Accounting Pronouncements	RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09 "Revenue from Contracts with Customers " ("ASU 2014-09"), which requires an entity to recognize the amount of revenue to which it expects to be entitled for the transfer of promised goods or services to customers. The standard was originally effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016 and permits the use of either the retrospective or cumulative effect transition method. On July 9, 2015, the FASB approved a one-year deferral of the effective date making the standard effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017. The Company is currently planning to use the modified retrospective transition method. The Company is also currently evaluating the impact that this standard will have on its consolidated financial statements and disclosures, as well as its processes and internal controls. As part of its assessment work, the Company has formed an implementation team, completed training on the new revenue recognition model and is undertaking a review of its contracts. However, the Company does not expect that adoption of the standard will have a significant impact on its consolidated financial statements, as a substantial portion of its revenue consists of rental income from leasing arrangements, which is specifically excluded from ASU 2014-09. In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-01 "Financial Instruments — Overall: Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities," which will require entities to measure their investments at fair value and recognize any changes in fair value in net income unless the investments qualify for the new practicability exception. The practicability exception will be available for equity investments that do not have readily determinable fair values. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting the new standard but does not believe that its adoption will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements. In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02 "Leases" ("ASU 2016-02"), which amends the existing accounting standards for lease accounting, including requiring lessees to recognize most leases on their balance sheets and making targeted changes to lessor accounting. ASU 2016-02 is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted. At adoption, the standard will be applied using a modified retrospective approach. Management is in the process of evaluating the impact of the standard on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13 "Financial Instruments - Credit Losses" ("ASU 2016-13"), which introduces an approach based on expected losses to estimate credit losses on certain types of financial instruments. The new model, referred to as the current expected credit losses ("CECL model"), will apply to financial assets subject to credit losses and measured at amortized cost, and certain off-balance sheet credit exposures. ASU 2016-13 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within that fiscal year. Early application of the guidance will be permitted for all entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Management is currently evaluating the impact that adopting the new standard will have on the Company's consolidated financial statements but believes that, unless the Company acquires any additional financing receivables, the impact will not be material. In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, "Statement of Cash Flows: Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments." This new standard will make eight targeted changes to how cash receipts and cash payments are presented and classified in the statement of cash flows. The new standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017 and will require adoption on a retrospective basis unless it is impracticable to apply, in which case we would be required to apply the amendments prospectively as of the earliest date practicable. Management is currently evaluating the impact of the new standard but does not expect that its adoption will have a material impact. In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-01, "Clarifying the Definition of a Business," which clarifies the definition of "a business" to assist entities with evaluating whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions or disposals of assets or businesses. The standard introduces a screen for determining when assets acquired are not a business and clarifies that a business must include, at a minimum, an input and a substantive process that contribute to an output to be considered a business. This standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within that reporting period. Early adoption is allowed for transactions where the acquisition (or subsidiary deconsolidation) occurs before the effective date of the amendments and the transaction has not been previously reported in the financial statements. Management is currently evaluating the impact and timing of adopting the new standard. In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, "Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment" ("ASU 2017-04"), which simplifies how an entity is required to test goodwill for impairment by eliminating Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. Step 2 measures a goodwill impairment loss by comparing the implied fair value of a reporting unit’s goodwill with the carrying amount of that goodwill. Under the amendments in ASU 2017-04, an entity should recognize an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value; however, the loss recognized should not exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. The standard is effective for annual or interim tests performed in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted for goodwill impairment tests performed on testing dates after January 1, 2017. Effective January 1, 2017, Management has elected to early adopt this standard in connection with its goodwill impairment testing performed subsequent to January 1, 2017. As the standard will be applied prospectively, for measurement of goodwill impairment losses when an impairment is indicated, the impact of adoption to the financial statements will depend on various factors. However, elimination of the second step will reduce the complexity and cost of measuring any such impairment.
