1. Use \blank[overlay] to continue on the first line of the item entry

2. Disable the blank line at the start of the table with "before="

\starttext

\startitemize[n]
     \startitem \blank[overlay]
         \starttabulate[|l|c|r|c|r|][before=,after=]
         \NC DC   \NC = \NC  3.20 bbl \NC = \NC   420 ft \NC\NR
         \NC HWDP \NC = \NC  3.90 bbl \NC = \NC   450 ft \NC\NR
         \NC DP   \NC = \NC 34.63 bbl \NC = \NC 2,037 ft \NC\NR
         \NC DC   \NC = \NC 41.73 bbl \NC = \NC 2,907 ft \NC\NR
         \stoptabulate
     \stopitem
     \startitem
         Convert 2,907 to TVD:\crlf
         TVD = 2,907 × cosine 45° = 2,907 × 0.707 = 2,056 ft
     \stopitem
     \startitem
         ΔP = 2,056 ft × 0.052 × (15 – 7.2) = 834 psi
     \stopitem
\stopitemize

You can also get rid of the = in your table when you use the \EQ column 
separator and set the sign for the separator to =.

\starttext

\starttabulate[|l|r|r|][EQ={=}]
\NC DC   \EQ  3.20 bbl \EQ   420 ft \NC\NR
\NC HWDP \EQ  3.90 bbl \EQ   450 ft \NC\NR
\NC DP   \EQ 34.63 bbl \EQ 2,037 ft \NC\NR
\NC DC   \EQ 41.73 bbl \EQ 2,907 ft \NC\NR
\stoptabulate

\stoptext
