Their opening fixture is away to Glamorgan at Neath on Wednesday and they could face Ben Stokes when they go to Durham two days later.
The home campaign starts on Sunday, July 26 as Yorkshire visit Hove.
Then there is a trip to Arundel as Essex head to the scenic Castle Ground on Wednesday, July 29.
