Accounting Policies [Abstract]
INTRODUCTION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION	INTRODUCTION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION Introduction CorEnergy Infrastructure Trust, Inc. (referred to as "CorEnergy" or "the Company"), was organized as a Maryland corporation and commenced operations on December 8, 2005. The Company's common stock, par value $0.001 per share ("Common Stock"), is listed on the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE") under the symbol "CORR" and its depositary shares representing the Company's 7.375% Series A Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share ("Series A Preferred Stock"), are listed on the NYSE under the symbol "CORR PrA". The Company's Class B Common Stock, par value $0.001 per share ("Class B Common Stock"), is not listed on an exchange. The Company owns and operates critical energy midstream infrastructure connecting the upstream and downstream sectors within the industry. The Company currently generates revenue from the transportation, via pipeline systems, of crude oil and natural gas for its customers in California and Missouri, respectively. The pipelines are located in areas where it would be difficult to replicate rights-of-way or transport crude oil or natural gas via non-pipeline alternatives, resulting in the Company's assets providing utility-like criticality in the midstream supply chain for its customers. CorEnergy's Private Letter Rulings ("PLRs") enable the Company to invest in a broader set of revenue contracts within its real estate investment trust ("REIT") structure, including the opportunity to both own and operate infrastructure assets. CorEnergy has determined its investments in these energy infrastructure assets to be a single reportable business segment and reports them accordingly in its consolidated financial statements. The principal executive offices of the Company are located at 1100 Walnut, Suite 3350, Kansas City, Missouri 64106. Basis of Presentation and Consolidation The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include CorEnergy accounts and the accounts of its wholly owned subsidiaries and variable interest entities ("VIEs") for which CorEnergy is the primary beneficiary. The unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") set forth in the Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC"), as published by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (" FASB"), and with the Securities and Exchange Commission (" 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 unaudited 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 have been reduced by the portion of net earnings attributable to non-controlling interests, when applicable. Prior reporting period amounts have been recast to conform with the current period presentation. In preparing the unaudited consolidated financial statements, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the balance sheet and revenues and expenses for the period. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2023 or any other interim or annual period. Amounts as of December 31, 2022 have been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements as of that date but do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements and, as a result, should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in CorEnergy's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, filed with the SEC on March 29, 2023. Subsidiaries of the Company and Crimson Midstream Holdings, LLC, a VIE of the Company ("Crimson"), are co-borrowers under that certain Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as February 4, 2021, which provides for borrowing capacity of up to $155.0 million (the "Crimson Credit Facility"). The Crimson Credit Facility is scheduled to mature on May 3, 2024, which is within twelve months of the date of issuance of these financial statements for the period ended June 30, 2023. On May 25, 2023, the Company announced entry into a definitive agreement to sell the MoGas and Omega pipeline systems to Spire, Inc. for approximately $175.0 million in cash, subject to final working capital adjustments. The transaction is currently expected to close around the end of the calendar year, pending U.S. Federal Trade Commission ("FTC") review and subject to customary closing conditions. The Company is required to use the proceeds from such sale to repay the Crimson Credit Facility . If the MoGas and Omega sale does not occur in early 2024, the Company's operating cash flows may not be sufficient to service our debt instruments in 2024. If the Company is unable to extend the maturity date of the Crimson Credit Facility, or to repay or refinance it by May 3, 2024, the Company's ability to meet its obligations would be adversely affected. Failure to extend the maturity date or repay the debt prior to its contractual maturity would result in the potential foreclosure on the collateral securing such debt and could cause a cross-default under other agreements, which could also result in the acceleration of those obligations by the counterparties to those agreements. The Company’s management believes it is probable the sale of MoGas and Omega will be successful and enable the Company to fully retire the Crimson Credit Facility before its contractual maturity and allow the Company to sufficiently service debt instruments in 2024, although no such assurance can be given. During March 2023, the Company determined that the MoGas and Omega pipeline assets have met the criteria of "held-for- sale" accounting, as specified by FASB's ASC 360, " Property, Plant and Equipment

Accounting Standards Update and Change in Accounting Principle [Abstract]
RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS	RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS In June of 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update ("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 model ("CECL model"), applies to financial assets subject to credit losses and measured at amortized cost, as well as certain off-balance sheet credit exposures. Consistent with the guidance for smaller reporting companies, the Company has adopted this standard as of January 1, 2023. Trade receivables - Accounts receivable from the transportation and distribution of crude oil and natural gas are generally settled with counterparties within 60 days of the service month. The Company has a high historical rate of collectibility of greater than 99% of total revenue and, as such, has adopted an impairment model based on an evaluation of its aging schedule. As of June 30, 2023 the Company's calculated allowance for doubtful accounts was immaterial. Financing note receivable - Refer to Note 6 ("Financing Notes Receivable") for further discussion.

Discontinued Operations and Disposal Groups [Abstract]
HELD-FOR-SALE	HELD-FOR-SALE MoGas Pipeline and Omega Pipeline Systems As of June 30, 2023, the Company's MoGas and Omega pipeline systems were classified as assets and liabilities held-for-sale. The Company is disposing of these assets to address upcoming debt maturities on the Crimson Credit Facility and to reduce outstanding debt associated with the Company's 5.875% Unsecured Convertible Senior Notes due 2025 (the "5.875% Convertible Notes"). On May 25, 2023, the Company announced entry into a definitive agreement to sell the MoGas and Omega pipeline systems to Spire, Inc. for $175.0 million in cash, subject to final working capital adjustments. On July 3, 2023, the Company received a request for additional information ("Second Request") from the FTC with regard to this proposed acquisition. The Company is fully cooperating with the FTC regarding the Second Request and expects to close around the end of the calendar year subject to receiving FTC approval. The pre-tax profit from the disposal group held for sale is summarized in the table below for each period the statement of operations is presented: For the Three Months Ended For the Six Months Ended June 30, 2023 June 30, 2022 June 30, 2023 June 30, 2022 Pre-tax profit (1) $ 1,216,053 $ 1,913,585 $ 1,849,788 $ 4,217,235 Allocated interest related to the sale to repay the Crimson Credit Facility 2,528,059 1,444,622 5,034,340 2,693,193 (1) The Company is contractually obligated to use the proceeds from the anticipated sale to repay the Crimson Credit Facility.

TRANSPORTATION AND DISTRIBUTION

TRANSPORTATION AND DISTRIBUTION REVENUE	6 Months Ended

Revenue from Contract with Customer [Abstract]
TRANSPORTATION AND DISTRIBUTION REVENUE	TRANSPORTATION AND DISTRIBUTION REVENUE The Company's contracts related to transportation and distribution revenue are primarily comprised of a mix of crude oil, natural gas supply and natural gas transportation and distribution performance obligations, as well as limited performance obligations related to system maintenance and improvement. Crude Oil and Natural Gas Transportation and Distribution Under the Company's (i) crude oil and natural gas transportation, (ii) natural gas supply and (iii) natural gas distribution performance obligations, the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefit of the services as the commodity is delivered. Therefore, the transaction price is allocated proportionally over the series of identical performance obligations with each contract, and the Company satisfies performance obligations over time as transportation and distribution services are performed. The transaction price is calculated based on (i) index price, plus a contractual markup in the case of natural gas supply agreements (considered variable due to fluctuations in the index), (ii) CPUC and Federal Energy Regulatory Commission ("FERC") regulated rates or negotiated rates in the case of transportation agreements and (iii) contracted amounts (with annual Consumer Price Index escalators) in the case of the Company's distribution agreement. The Company's crude oil transportation revenue also includes amounts earned for pipeline loss allowance ("PLA"). PLA revenue, recorded within transportation revenue, represents the estimated realizable value of the earned loss allowance volumes received by the Company as applicable under the tariff or contract. As is common in the pipeline transportation industry, as crude oil is transported, the Company earns a small percentage of the crude oil volume transported to offset any measurement uncertainty or actual volumes lost in transit. The Company will settle the PLA with its shippers either in-kind or in cash. PLA received by the Company typically exceeds actual pipeline losses in transit and typically results in a benefit to the Company. When PLA is paid in-kind, the barrels are valued at current market price less standard deductions, recorded as inventory and recognized as non-cash consideration revenue, concurrent with related transportation services. PLA paid in cash is treated in the same way as in-kind, but no inventory is created. In accordance with ASC 606, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers" ("ASC 606") when control of the PLA volumes have been transferred to the purchaser, the Company records this non-cash consideration as revenue at the contractual sales price within PLA revenue and PLA cost of revenues. Based on the nature of the agreements, revenue for all but one of the Company's natural gas supply, transportation and distribution performance obligations is recognized on a right-to-invoice basis as the performance obligations are met, which represents what the Company expects to receive in consideration and is representative of value delivered to the customer. System Maintenance & Improvement System maintenance and improvement contracts are specific and tailored to the customer's needs, have no alternative use and have an enforceable right to payment as the services are provided. Revenue is recognized on an input method, based on the actual cost of service as a measure of the performance obligation satisfaction. Differences between amounts invoiced and revenue recognized under the input method are reflected as an asset or liability on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The costs of system improvement projects are recognized as a financing arrangement in accordance with guidance in ASC 842, "Leases," while the margin is recognized in accordance with the ASC 606 revenue standard as discussed above. The table below summarizes the Company's contract liability balance related to its transportation and distribution revenue contracts: Contract Liability (1) June 30, 2023 December 31, 2022 Beginning Balance January 1 $ 5,927,873 $ 5,339,364 Unrecognized Performance Obligations 531,062 1,175,824 Recognized Performance Obligations (348,154) (587,315) Ending Balance (2) $ 6,110,781 $ 5,927,873 (1) As of June 30, 2023, the contract liability balance is included in unearned revenue (Crimson portion) and liabilities held-for-sale (MoGas and Omega portion) in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of December 31, 2022, the contract liability balance was included in unearned revenue in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. (2) As of June 30, 2023, the contract liability balance for MoGas and Omega was $5.5 million and is recorded in liabilities held-for-sale on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company's contract asset balances were immaterial as of both June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022. The Company also recognized deferred contract costs related to incremental costs to obtain a transportation performance obligation contract, which are amortized on a straight-line basis over the remaining term of the contract. As of June 30, 2023, the remaining unamortized deferred contract costs balance was approximately $708 thousand. The contract asset and deferred contract costs balances are included in assets held-for-sale and prepaid expenses and other assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. The following is a breakout of the Company's transportation and distribution revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022: For the Three Months Ended For the Six Months Ended June 30, 2023 June 30, 2022 June 30, 2023 June 30, 2022 Crude oil transportation revenue $ 23,205,929 81 % $ 22,759,790 81 % $ 47,072,520 82 % $ 47,102,774 81 % Natural gas transportation revenue 3,596,338 13 % 4,077,445 14 % 7,348,937 13 % 8,138,721 14 % Natural gas distribution revenue 1,271,553 4 % 1,236,261 4 % 2,510,081 4 % 2,434,166 4 % Other 466,812 2 % 216,158 1 % 848,209 1 % 588,967 1 % Total $ 28,540,632 100 % $ 28,289,654 100 % $ 57,779,747 100 % $ 58,264,628 100 %

LEASES	LEASES The Company and its subsidiaries currently lease land, corporate office space, single-use office space, and equipment. During 2022, Crimson entered into a new corporate office lease that commenced upon possession of the property on April 15, 2023. No lease payments are due for the first year. The Company's leases are classified as operating leases and presented as operating right-of-use assets (assets held-for-sale for MoGas and Omega) and operating lease liabilities (liabilities held-for-sale for MoGas and Omega) on the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of June 30, 2023. The Company's leases are presented as operating right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of December 31, 2022. The Company recognizes lease expense in the Consolidated Statements of Operations on a straight-line basis over the remaining lease term.

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, 2023 and December 31, 2022, are as follows: Deferred Tax Assets and Liabilities June 30, 2023 December 31, 2022 Deferred Tax Assets: Deferred contract revenue $ — $ 1,230,985 Net operating loss carryforwards 217,430 7,027,439 Capital loss carryforward — 92,418 Other — 338 Sub-total $ 217,430 $ 8,351,180 Valuation allowance — (5,168,148) Sub-total $ 217,430 $ 3,183,032 Deferred Tax Liabilities: Cost recovery of leased and fixed assets $ — $ (4,386,744) Other — (88,588) Sub-total $ — $ (4,475,332) Total net deferred tax asset (liability) $ 217,430 $ (1,292,300) Deferred Tax Assets and Liabilities - Held-For-Sale June 30, 2023 Deferred Tax Assets: Deferred contract revenue $ 1,146,872 Net operating loss carryforwards 7,230,269 Capital loss carryforward 92,418 Other 324 Sub-total $ 8,469,883 Valuation allowance (4,027,069) Sub-total $ 4,442,814 Deferred Tax Liabilities: Cost recovery of leased and fixed assets $ (4,908,800) Other (97,445) Sub-total $ (5,006,245) Total net deferred tax liability (1) $ (563,431) (1) The deferred tax liability is recorded within certain parent entities that are not part of the disposal group, however, because the liability was generated from the operations of the disposal group, the Company has included it within liabilities held-for-sale on the Consolidated Balance Sheet. The total deferred tax assets and liabilities presented above relate to the Company's taxable REIT subsidiaries ("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. As of June 30, 2023, the Company had no uncertain tax positions. Tax years beginning with the year ended December 31, 2019 remain open to examination by federal and state tax authorities. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the TRSs had cumulative net operating loss carryforwards ("NOLs") of $30.8 million and $29.2 million, respectively. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, NOLs of $28.3 million and $26.4 million, respectively, that were generated during the periods ended June 30, 2023, December 31, 2022, 2021, 2020, 2019, and 2018 may be carried forward indefinitely, subject to limitation. NOLs generated for years prior to December 31, 2018 may be carried forward for 20 years. Management assessed the available evidence and determined that it is more likely than not that the capital loss carryforwards will not be utilized prior to expiration. Due to the uncertainty of realizing this deferred tax asset, a valuation allowance of $92 thousand was recorded, equal to the amount of the tax benefit of this carryforward at both June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022. Additionally, the Company determined that certain of the federal and state NOLs may not be utilized prior to their expiration. Due to the uncertainty of realizing these deferred tax assets, a valuation allowance of $3.9 million and $5.2 million was recorded at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. As a result of certain assets and liabilities being classified as held-for-sale, the Company reassessed the period used to recognize temporary differences which resulted in a lower valuation allowance requirement for the current period. In the future, if the Company concludes, based on existence of sufficient evidence, that it should realize more or less of the deferred tax assets, the valuation allowance will be adjusted accordingly in the period such conclusion is made. The Company provides for income taxes during interim periods based on the estimated effective tax rate for the year and any discrete adjustments. The effective tax rate is subject to change in the future due to various factors such as the operating performance of the TRSs, tax law changes, and future business acquisitions or divestitures. The TRSs’ effective tax rates were (96.6)% and 12.6% for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The negative tax rate for the current period is a result of the tax benefit received from the lower valuation allowance requirement described in the preceding paragraph. 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, 2023 June 30, 2022 June 30, 2023 June 30, 2022 Current tax expense Federal $ 2,282 $ 104,579 $ 8,432 $ 210,147 State (net of federal tax expense) 343 52,298 1,269 97,774 Total current tax expense $ 2,625 $ 156,877 $ 9,701 $ 307,921 Deferred tax expense (benefit) Federal $ (803,525) $ 13,358 $ (803,124) $ 72,782 State (net of federal tax expense) (131,179) 2,851 (143,175) 15,640 Total deferred tax expense (benefit) $ (934,704) $ 16,209 $ (946,299) $ 88,422 Total income tax expense (benefit), net $ (932,079) $ 173,086 $ (936,598) $ 396,343

COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES	COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES Crimson Legal Proceedings As a transporter of crude oil, the Company is subject to various environmental regulations that could subject the Company to future monetary obligations. Crimson has received notices of violations and potential fines under various federal, state and local provisions relating to the discharge of materials into the environment or protection of the environment. Management believes that if any one or more of these environmental proceedings were decided against Crimson, it would not be material to the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows. Additionally, the Company maintains insurance coverage for environmental liabilities in amounts that management believes are appropriate and customary for the Company's business. The Company is also subject to various other claims and legal proceedings covering a wide range of matters that arose in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of management, all such matters are without merit or are of such kind, or involve such amounts, as would not have a material adverse effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company. Restructuring Costs During the first quarter of 2023, the Company approved a restructuring plan associated with changes in management structure and the corresponding reorganization of Crimson management. The Company recognized restructuring expense of $324 thousand and $2.0 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively. These costs are recorded in transportation and distribution and in general and administrative within the Consolidated Statement of Operations. The Company does not anticipate additional restructuring-related costs over the remainder of 2023 related to this plan. As of June 30, 2023, the remaining liability related to these restructuring costs was $815 thousand, which is recorded in accounts payable and other accrued liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Long Term Incentive Awards On March 15, 2023, the Company awarded $2.1 million in "Cash Units" under the Omnibus Plan (as defined below) 2023 Annual Long Term Incentive Awards. Each Cash Unit represents the right to receive $1 at a future date with such amount not tied to the Company’s operating performance or stock price. The Cash Units vest over three years, with 1/3 vesting on March 15th each year. The expense related to these awards was $198 thousand for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2023. California Bonds Indemnification The Company maintains certain agreements for indemnity and surety bonds with various California regulatory bodies. The total annual premium paid for the bonds currently outstanding is approximately $148 thousand, recorded in general and administrative expense.

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]
FAIR VALUE	FAIR VALUEThe following section describes the valuation methodologies used by the Company for estimating fair value for financial instruments 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 carrying value of financing notes receivable approximates fair value. The Company uses the discounted cash flow method to estimate expected credit losses and also reviews other factors that may affect the collectability of the balance, including timeliness of required payments, past due status and discussions with obligors. There are no past due payments associated with the loan. Estimates of realizable value are determined based on unobservable inputs, including estimates of future cash flow generation and value of collateral underlying the notes. Inventory — Inventory primarily consists of crude oil earned as in-kind PLA payments and is valued using an average costing method at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Secured Credit Facilities — The fair value of the Company's long-term variable-rate debt under its secured credit facilities approximates carrying value. Unsecured Convertible Senior Notes — The fair value of the 5.875% Convertible Notes is estimated using quoted market prices from either active (Level 1) or generally active (Level 2) markets. Carrying and Fair Value Amounts Level within fair value hierarchy June 30, 2023 December 31, 2022 Carrying Amount (1) Fair Value Carrying Amount (1) Fair Value 5.875% Convertible Notes Level 2 $ 116,652,380 $ 99,213,942 $ 116,323,530 $ 79,093,500 (1) The carrying value of debt balances are presented net of unamortized original issuance discount and debt issuance costs.

(2) The required quarterly principal payments will increase from $2.0 million to $3.0 million beginning with the payment due September 30, 2023. Crimson Credit Facility The Crimson Credit Facility provides borrowing capacity of up to $155.0 million, consisting of: a $50.0 million revolving credit facility ("Crimson Revolver"), an $80.0 million term loan ("Crimson Term Loan") and an uncommitted incremental credit facility of $25.0 million. On September 14, 2022, the Borrowers completed the first amendment to the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, which replaced the use of a LIBOR reference rate with the Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR"). On March 6, 2023, the Company completed the second amendment to the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, which extended the maturity of the Crimson Credit Facility from its maturity on February 4, 2024 to May 3, 2024 and amended the applicable total leverage ratio in the first two quarters of 2023 from 2.50 to 2.75, as well as increased the required quarterly amortization of the term loan from $2.0 million to $3.0 million beginning in the third quarter of 2023. The Company's total leverage ratio of 2.80 for the second quarter of 2023 violated the 2.75 covenant requirement and the Company utilized an equity cure as allowed by the terms of the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement to remedy the violation. On August 14, 2023, the parties entered into the third amendment to the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the "Third Agreement"), which amended the applicable total leverage ratio in the third and fourth quarters of 2023 from 2.50 to 3.75, which is anticipated to prevent any additional covenant violations before the completion of the sale of the MoGas and Omega assets around the end of the calendar year, although no such assurance can be given.

Equity [Abstract]
STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY	STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION On May 25, 2022, the Company's stockholders approved the CorEnergy Infrastructure Trust, Inc. Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan (the "Omnibus Plan") (3,000,000 shares of Common Stock authorized) which allows the Company to grant equity awards to its employees, non-employee directors, and consultants in its employ or service (or the employ or service of any parent, subsidiary or affiliate). Incentive compensation programs play a pivotal role in the Company's effort to (i) attract and retain key personnel essential to its long-term growth and financial success, and (ii) align long term interests of recipients with the Company's stockholders. Under the Omnibus Plan, awards may be granted in the form of options, restricted stock, restricted stock units, stock appreciation rights, Common Stock awards, cash-based awards and performance-based awards. On May 26, 2022, the Company filed a Form S-8 registration statement with the SEC, pursuant to which it registered 3,000,000 shares of Common Stock for issuance under the Omnibus Plan. As of June 30, 2023, the Company had remaining availability of 2,446,080 shares of Common Stock under the plan. Restricted Stock Units The Company’s Board of Directors (the "Board") has granted awards of restricted stock units ("RSUs") to certain of the Company’s employees under the Omnibus Plan. The Company did not grant any RSUs during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023. The Company records stock-based compensation expense on a straight-line recognition method over the requisite service period for the entire award. Each RSU represents the right to receive one share of Common Stock at a future date. The RSUs vest over three years, with 1/3 vesting on March 15th each year. These RSUs will be settled within 30 days of vesting, and will accrue dividend equivalents, when and if declared, over the vesting period, which will be paid to the holder in cash or, at the discretion of the Compensation and Corporate Governance Committee of the Board, in the form of additional shares of Common Stock having a fair market value equal to the amount of such dividends upon vesting of the units. Forfeitures will be accounted for when they occur. The following tables represent the RSU activity for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022: Restricted Stock Units Weighted Average Grant Date Outstanding at January 1, 2023 674,312 $ 2.58 Granted — — Vested (148,219) 2.58 Forfeited (201,209) 2.58 Outstanding at June 30, 2023 324,884 $ 2.58 Expected to vest as of June 30, 2023 324,884 Restricted Stock Units Weighted Average Grant Date Outstanding at January 1, 2022 — $ — Granted 654,497 2.58 Vested — — Forfeited — — Outstanding at June 30, 2022 654,497 $ 2.58 Expected to vest as of June 30, 2022 654,497 As of June 30, 2023, the estimated remaining unrecognized compensation cost related to stock-based compensation arrangements was $696 thousand. The weighted average period over which this remaining compensation expense is expected to be recognized is 1.7 years. The following table presents the Company's stock-based compensation expense: For the Three Months Ended For the Six Months Ended June 30, 2023 June 30, 2022 June 30, 2023 June 30, 2022 General and administrative expense $ 83,100 $ 139,394 $ 95,330 $ 139,394 Transportation and distribution expense 19,618 11,965 (2,986) 11,965 Total $ 102,718 $ 151,359 $ 92,344 $ 151,359 DIVIDENDS On February 3, 2023, the Board suspended dividend payments on the Company's Common Stock and Series A Preferred Stock. The Series A Preferred Stock dividends are cumulative and will accrue at their stated rate during any period in which dividends are not paid. Any accrued Series A Preferred Stock dividends must be paid prior to the Company resuming common dividend payments. Based on the suspension of dividend payments to CorEnergy’s public equity holders, the Crimson Class A-1, Class A-2 and Class A-3 Units and CorEnergy’s Class B Common Stock will not receive dividend payments. As of June 30, 2023, the Company had $4.8 million in cumulative unpaid dividends related to its Series A Preferred Stock, which will be paid upon declaration by the Board or upon liquidation of the Company. The preferred return on the Crimson A-1 Units are pari passu to the Series A Preferred Stock dividends. As of June 30, 2023, the Company had $1.6 million in cumulative unpaid distributions related to the Crimson Class A-1 Units. NON-CONTROLLING INTEREST In February 2021, the Company completed the acquisition of a 49.50% voting interest in Crimson (the "Crimson Transaction"). John D. Grier, M. Bridget Grier and certain of their affiliated trusts (collectively, the "Grier Members") own the remaining 50.50% voting interest in Crimson. As part of the Crimson Transaction, the Company and the Grier Members entered into a Third Amended and Restated LLC Agreement of Crimson (the "Third LLC Agreement"). Pursuant to the terms of the Third LLC Agreement, the Grier Members and the Company's interests in Crimson are summarized in the table below: As of June 30, 2023 Grier Members CorEnergy (in units, except as noted) Economic ownership interests in Crimson Midstream Holdings, LLC Class A-1 Units 1,650,245 — Class A-2 Units 2,460,414 — Class A-3 Units 2,450,142 — Class B-1 Units — 10,000 Voting ownership interests in Crimson Midstream Holdings, LLC Class C-1 Units 505,000 495,000 Voting interests of C-1 Units (%) 50.50 % 49.50 % The Crimson Class A-1, Class A-2 and Class A-3 Units held by the Grier Members and the Crimson Class B-1 Units held by the Company represent economic interests in Crimson while the Crimson Class C-1 Units represent voting interests. Upon receipt of CPUC approval for a change of control of Crimson's CPUC-regulated assets ("CPUC Approval"), the parties will enter into a Fourth Amended and Restated LLC Agreement of Crimson (the "Fourth LLC Agreement"), which will, among other things, (i) give the Company control of Crimson and its assets in connection with an anticipated further restructuring of the Company's asset ownership structure, and (ii) provide the Grier Members and management members the right to exchange their entire interest in Crimson for securities of the Company as follows: • Crimson Class A-1 Units will become exchangeable for up to 1,755,579 (which includes the addition of 37,043 shares as a result of the working capital adjustment) of the Company's depositary shares, each representing 1/100th of a share of the Company's Series A Preferred Stock. • Crimson Class A-2 Units will become exchangeable for up to 8,762,158 shares of the Company's non-listed Class B Common Stock. After the conversion of the Company's Class B Common Stock into Common Stock, the Class A-2 Units will be directly exchangeable for Common Stock. • Crimson Class A-3 Units will become exchangeable for up to 2,450,142 shares of the Company's non-listed Class B Common Stock. After the conversion of the Company's Class B Common Stock into Common Stock, the Class A-3 Units will be directly exchangeable for Common Stock. Class B Common Stock will eventually be converted into the Common Stock of the Company on the occurrence of the earlier of the following: (i) the occurrence of the third anniversary of the closing date of the Crimson Transaction or (ii) the satisfaction of certain conditions related to an increase in the relative dividend rate of the Common Stock. Prior to exchange of the Crimson Class A-1, Class A-2 and Class A-3 Units into corresponding Company securities (and after giving effect to the changes to the Company securities into which the Crimson Class A-1 and Class A-2 Units may be exchanged, as described above), the Grier Members only have the right to receive distributions to the extent that the Board determines dividends would be payable if they held the shares of Series A Preferred (for the Crimson Class A-1 Units), and Class B Common Stock (for the Crimson Class A-2 Units and Class A-3 Units), respectively, regardless of whether the securities are outstanding. If the respective shares of Series A Preferred and Class B Common Stock are not outstanding, the Board must consider that they would be outstanding when declaring dividends on the Common Stock. Following CPUC Approval, the terms of the Fourth LLC Agreement will provide that such rights will continue until the Grier Members elect to exchange the Crimson Class A-1, Class A-2 and Class A-3 Units for the corresponding securities of the Company. The following table summarizes the distributions payable under the Crimson Class A-1, Class A-2 and Class A-3 Units as if the Grier Members held the respective underlying Company securities. The Crimson Class A-1, Class A-2 and Class A-3 Units are entitled to the distribution regardless of whether the corresponding Company security is outstanding.

EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE	EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE Basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share data is computed using the two-class method based on the weighted average number of shares of Common Stock and Class B Common Stock outstanding during the periods. The undistributed earnings and losses are allocated between Common Stock and Class B Common Stock as if all earnings and losses had been distributed during the period. Common Stock and Class B Common Stock have equal rights to undistributed earnings and losses.

(2) For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, 2,361,000 shares of Common Stock are excluded from the computation of diluted net earnings per share because their effect would be antidilutive. These shares are related to the 5.875% Convertible Notes. (3) For purposes of the diluted net earnings per share computation for Class B Common Stock, weighted average shares of Class B Common Stock are assumed not converted to Common Stock.

VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITY

VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITY	6 Months Ended
	Jun. 30, 2023
Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITY	VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITY Crimson Midstream Holdings Since February 1, 2021, CorEnergy has held a 49.50% voting interest in Crimson and the Grier Members have held the remaining 50.50% voting interest. Crimson is a VIE because the legal entity is structured with non-substantive voting rights resulting from (i) the disproportionality between the voting interests of its members and certain economics of the distribution waterfall in the Third LLC Agreement and (ii) the de facto agent relationship between CorEnergy and Mr. Grier, who was appointed to the Board and as Chief Operating Officer of the Company upon closing of the Crimson Transaction. As a result of this related-party relationship, substantially all of Crimson's activities either involve or are conducted on behalf of CorEnergy, which has disproportionately few voting rights, including Mr. Grier as a de facto agent. Crimson is managed by the Crimson Board, which is made up of four managers of which the Company and the Grier Members are each represented by two managers. The Crimson Board is responsible for governing the significant activities that impact Crimson's economic performance, including a number of activities managed by an approved budget that requires super-majority approval or joint approval. In assessing the primary beneficiary, the Company determined that power is shared; however, the Company and the Grier Members as a related-party group have characteristics of a primary beneficiary. The Company performed the "most closely associated" test and determined that CorEnergy is the entity in the related-party group most closely associated with the VIE. In performing this assessment, the Company considered, among other factors, (i) its influence over the tax structure of Crimson so its operations could be included in the Company's REIT structure under its PLR, which allows fees received for the usage of storage and pipeline capacity to qualify as rents from real property; (ii) that the activities of the Company are substantially similar in nature to the activities of Crimson as the Company owns existing transportation and distribution assets at MoGas and Omega; (iii) that Crimson's assets represent a substantial portion of the Company's total assets; and (iv) that the Grier Members' interest in Crimson Class A-1, Class A-2 and Class A-3 Units will earn distributions if the Board declares a common or preferred dividend for Series A Preferred Stock and Class B Common Stock. Therefore, CorEnergy is the primary beneficiary and consolidates the Crimson VIE and the Grier Members' equity ownership interest (after the working capital adjustment and paid-in-kind dividends), which is reflected as a non-controlling interest in the consolidated financial statements. The Company noted that Crimson's assets cannot be used to settle CorEnergy's liabilities, with the exception of quarterly distributions if declared by the Crimson Board. The quarterly distributions are used to fund current obligations, projected working capital requirements, debt service payments and dividend payments. Cash distributions to the Company from the borrowers under the Crimson Credit Facility are subject to certain restrictions, including without limitation, no default or event of default, compliance with financial covenants, minimum undrawn availability and available free cash flow. Further, the Crimson Credit Facility is secured by assets at both Crimson Midstream Operating, LLC and Corridor MoGas, Inc. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company did not receive cash distributions from Crimson. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company received $2.4 million and $5.4 million, respectively, i n cash distributions from Crimson, which were made in compliance with the terms of the Crimson Credit Facility.

Related Party Transactions [Abstract]
RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS	RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS As previously disclosed, Mr. Grier, a director and Chief Operating Officer of the Company, together with the Grier Members, own the Crimson Class A-1, Class A-2, and Class A-3 equity ownership interests in Crimson, which the Company has a right to acquire in the future following receipt of CPUC Approval. The Grier Members also retain equity interests in Crescent Midstream Holdings, LLC ("Crescent Midstream Holdings") which they held prior to the Crimson Transaction, as well as Crescent Louisiana Midstream, LLC ("CLM"), Crimson Renewable Energy, L.P. ("CRE") and Delta Trading, L.P. ("Delta"). As of June 30, 2023, the Company was owed $5 thousand from related parties, including CLM, CRE and Delta, which is included in "due from affiliated companies" in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. These balances are primarily related to payroll, employee benefits and other services discussed below. The amounts billed to CLM are cash-settled and the amounts billed to Crescent Midstream Holdings will reduce a prepaid TSA (as defined below) liability on the Company's books until such time as the TSA liability is reduced to zero. As of June 30, 2023, the prepaid TSA liability related to Crescent Midstream Holdings was $156 thousand and recorded in "due to affiliated companies" in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, Crimson billed costs and services related to TSAs and the Services Agreement (each as defined below) to related parties totaling $110 thousand and $252 thousand, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, Crimson billed costs and services related to TSAs and the Services Agreement to related parties totaling $201 thousand and $684 thousand, respectively. Total transition services reimbursements for the TSAs discussed below are presented on a net basis in the Consolidated Statements of Operations within transportation and distribution expense and general and administrative expense. Transition Services Agreements The subsidiaries of Crescent Midstream Holdings were formerly a part of Crimson prior to the Crimson Transaction and received various business services from Crimson or certain of its subsidiaries. Effective February 4, 2021, Crimson and certain of Crimson's subsidiaries entered into several transition services agreements (collectively, the "Transition Services Agreements" or "TSAs") with Crescent Midstream Holdings to facilitate its transition to operating independently. Each of the TSAs are described in more detail below. Also, effective February 4, 2021, Crimson and certain of its subsidiaries entered into an assignment and assumption agreement (the "Assignment and Assumption Agreement") to assign all of the TSAs to Crimson's direct, wholly owned TRS, Crimson Midstream I Corporation ("Crimson Midstream I"). Crimson and/or certain of its subsidiaries were reimbursed approximately $156 thousand per month for services provided under the TSAs during 2021, for which the billed amount was allocated 50.0% to Crescent Midstream, LLC ("Crescent Midstream"), a wholly owned subsidiary of Crescent Midstream Holdings, and 50.0% to CLM, a 70.0%-owned subsidiary of Crescent Midstream. These TSA agreements ended on February 3, 2022 and Crimson entered into the Services Agreement (as defined below) for some of the business services previously provided, as described below. Employee TSA - Crimson and Crescent Midstream Holdings entered into a transition services agreement (the "Employee TSA") whereby an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of Crimson provided payroll, employee benefits and other related employment services to Crescent Midstream Holdings and its subsidiaries. Under the Employee TSA, Crimson's indirect, wholly owned subsidiary made available and assigned to Crescent Midstream Holdings and its subsidiaries certain employees to provide services primarily to Crescent Midstream Holdings and its subsidiaries. While the Employee TSA was in effect, Crescent Midstream Holdings was responsible for the daily supervision of and assignment of work to the employees providing services to Crescent Midstream Holdings and its subsidiaries. Additionally, Crimson's indirect, wholly owned subsidiary, Crimson Midstream Services, entered into an employee sharing agreement with Crimson Midstream I (the "Employee Sharing Agreement") to make available all employees performing services under the Employee TSA to Crimson Midstream I. The Employee Sharing Agreement was effective beginning February 1, 2021. The Employee Sharing Agreement, together with the Assignment and Assumption Agreement described above, effectively bound Crimson Midstream I to the terms of the Employee TSA in the same manner as Crimson's indirect, wholly owned subsidiary. The Employee TSA and the Employee Sharing Agreement ended on February 3, 2022. Control Center TSA - Crimson Midstream Operating, LLC ("Crimson Midstream Operating"), a wholly owned subsidiary of Crimson, entered into a transition services agreement (the "Control Center TSA") with Crescent Midstream Holdings to provide certain customary control center services and field transition support services necessary to operate a pipeline system. The Control Center TSA was assigned from Crimson Midstream Operating to Crimson Midstream I by the Assignment and Assumption Agreement discussed above. This agreement ended on February 3, 2022. Services Agreement Effective February 4, 2022, Crimson Midstream Operating entered into a services agreement (the "Services Agreement") to provide administrative-related services to Crescent Midstream Holdings through February 3, 2023, or upon receipt of Crescent Midstream Holdings' written notice to terminate the Services Agreement prior to February 3, 2023. Under the Services Agreement, Crimson and/or certain of its subsidiaries are reimbursed at a fixed fee of approximately $44 thousand per month. Effective February 1, 2023, Crimson Midstream Operating entered into a first amendment to the Services Agreement (the "Amended Services Agreement") to provide administrative-related services to Crescent Midstream Holdings through February 1, 2024, or upon receipt of Crescent Midstream Holdings' written notice to terminate the Amended Services Agreement prior to February 1, 2024. Under the Amended Services Agreement, Crimson and/or certain of its subsidiaries are reimbursed at a fixed fee of approximately $13 thousand per month.

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. In connection with the Company's pending sale of the MoGas and Omega pipeline systems to Spire, Inc., the Company and Spire, Inc. filed notification and report forms under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended (the "HSR Act"), with the FTC and the Antitrust Division of the U.S. Department of Justice. On July 3, 2023, the parties each received a request for additional information and documentary materials (the "Second Request") from the FTC in connection with the FTC's review of the transaction. The effect of the Second Request is to extend the waiting period imposed by the HSR Act until 30 days after the parties have substantially complied with the Second Request, unless such period is extended voluntarily by the parties or terminated sooner by the FTC. Both parties intend to continue to work cooperatively with the FTC in its review. Completion of the transaction remains subject to the expiration or termination of the waiting period under the HSR Act and the satisfaction or waiver of the other closing conditions specified in the definitive agreement. The Company currently expects to close the sale of the disposal group around the end of the calendar year subject to receiving FTC approval. There can be no assurance that the Company will complete the sale on this expected timeline or at all. During July 2023, Crimson entered into agreements to sell 25,000 barrels of PLA volumes. The average selling price was $73.97 per barrel and generated a total of $1.8 million in revenue. During August 2023, the Company completed the third amendment to the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, which amended the applicable total leverage ratio in the third and fourth quarters of 2023 from 2.50 to 3.75.

	Jun. 30, 2023
Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Basis of Presentation	The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include CorEnergy accounts and the accounts of its wholly owned subsidiaries and variable interest entities ("VIEs") for which CorEnergy is the primary beneficiary. The unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") set forth in the Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC"), as published by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (" FASB"), and with the Securities and Exchange Commission (" 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 unaudited 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.
Basis of Consolidation	In preparing the unaudited consolidated financial statements, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the balance sheet and revenues and expenses for the period. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements	RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS In June of 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2016-13 " Financial Instruments - Credit Losses
Trade receivables	Trade receivables - Accounts receivable from the transportation and distribution of crude oil and natural gas are generally settled with counterparties within 60 days of the service month. The Company has a high historical rate of collectibility of greater than 99% of total revenue and, as such, has adopted an impairment model based on an evaluation of its aging schedule.
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 carrying value of financing notes receivable approximates fair value. The Company uses the discounted cash flow method to estimate expected credit losses and also reviews other factors that may affect the collectability of the balance, including timeliness of required payments, past due status and discussions with obligors. There are no past due payments associated with the loan. Estimates of realizable value are determined based on unobservable inputs, including estimates of future cash flow generation and value of collateral underlying the notes. Inventory — Inventory primarily consists of crude oil earned as in-kind PLA payments and is valued using an average costing method at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Secured Credit Facilities — The fair value of the Company's long-term variable-rate debt under its secured credit facilities approximates carrying value. Unsecured Convertible Senior Notes — The fair value of the 5.875% Convertible Notes is estimated using quoted market prices from either active (Level 1) or generally active (Level 2) markets.
