Aker Solutions' umbilical plant in Mobile, Alabama was honored with the 2009 Alabama Medium Manufacturer of the Year award. The 10th annual awards program, sponsored by the Business Council of Alabama and the Alabama Technology Network, was created to recognize the state's manufacturers that have demonstrated superior performance in the areas of leadership, customer focus, operational excellence, and work force relations.

The awards are presented in three size categories to ensure the fair recognition of all applicants regardless of the size of their work force.
