An acquisition and control system for use with devices installed in an underground well, comprising; an installation designer, a data server, an application builder and a control and acquisition system. The installation designer includes a system for defining hardware and software functional configuration for the devices disposed in the well and providing the functional configuration to the data server. The application builder comprises a system for obtaining software components from the data server and configuring such components to meet the requirement as set out by the installation designer, the application builder outputs the configured software to the acquisition and control system. The acquisition and control system is in communication with the devices installed in the well for controlling these devices and to obtain data therefrom. Preferably, a SCADA (supervisory control and data acquisition system) is used as a framework consisting of the overall application resources and modules providing device specific components, the framework hosts the modules and the modules being defined in an installation designer and configured by an application builder.
