Background
Shale gas is a natural gas resource which is stored in a shale layer and can be exploited, and the formation and enrichment of the shale gas have unique characteristics and are often distributed in shale hydrocarbon source rock strata with large thickness and wide distribution in a basin. Compared with the conventional natural gas, the shale gas development has the advantages of long mining life and long production period, most of produced shale gas has wide distribution range and large thickness and generally contains gas, so that the shale gas well can produce gas at a stable rate for a long time. Under the influence of a special seepage mechanism of shale gas, the yield of the gas well has the characteristics of fast early-stage decline, slow middle-stage decline and stable later-stage low yield. The bottom hole effusion is a common problem faced by shale gas well production, and the foam drainage method becomes one of effective measures for solving the bottom hole effusion due to the advantages of small investment, quick effect, simple and convenient operation and the like. The foam drainage gas technology is characterized in that foam drainage foaming agents are injected into a gas well, and after bottom liquid contacts with the foam drainage foaming agents, a large amount of water-containing foam is generated by stirring natural gas flow and is carried to the ground along with the gas flow from the bottom, so that the purposes of increasing yield, stabilizing yield and prolonging the self-blowing period of the foam drainage foaming agents are achieved. The key of foam drainage gas recovery lies in the performance of foam drainage foaming agent, namely under certain methanol content, formation temperature and condensate oil content, the foam drainage agent is required to have foaming capacity and liquid carrying capacity as high as possible. Patent CN102020981A discloses a temperature-resistant salt-resistant low-tension foam oil displacement agent and a preparation method thereof, wherein the main agent of the foaming agent is alkanolamide and a bipolar surfactant, the temperature resistance is relatively poor, and the foaming agent is easy to lose efficacy in the stratum; methanol is usually added when the foaming agent is used, and the methanol can greatly reduce the foaming effect and the foam stabilizing performance of the foaming agent. Therefore, a novel foam discharging and foaming agent for shale gas, which has good temperature resistance and strong methanol resistance, needs to be provided.

The ionic liquid is [ Bmin]BF4、[Bmin][SO4]、[Bmin][HCOO]One or more of; preferably, the ionic liquid is [ Bmin]BF4. The ionic liquid not only obviously reduces the interfacial tension of the surfactant solution, but also can slow down the trend that repulsive force between liquid films is weakened when the temperature is higher, so that the strength of the liquid films is improved, the foam stability is improved, and the temperature resistance is improved.
