CCGS JEAN GOODWILL is an icebreaking anchor handling tug supply vessel (AHTS) being converted to a medium class icebreaker for the Canadian Coast Guard. She was originally built as BALDER VIKING for Trans Viking Icebreaking & Offshore AS in 2000. The vessel was acquired by the Canadian Coast Guard in 2018 and is expected to enter service in late 2019.
CCGS JEAN GOODWILL has two sister vessels, CCGS CAPTAIN MOLLY KOOL and CCGS VINCENT MASSEY , both of which are converted offshore vessels.

Design
CCGS JEAN GOODWILL is 83.7 metres (275 ft) long overall and 77.77 metres (255 ft) between perpendiculars. Her hull has a beam of 18 metres (59 ft) and moulded depth of 8.5 metres (28 ft). At design draught, she draws 6.5 metres (21 ft) of water, but can be loaded to a maximum draught of 7.22 metres (24 ft) which corresponds to a displacement of 6,872 tons.[4] Built to DNV ice class "ICE-10 Icebreaker", she will be rated as Arctic Class 2 in Canadian service. Originally she was served by a crew of 23, but this will be reduced to 19 (9 officers and 10 crew) when the vessel is commissioned by the Canadian Coast Guard.

CCGS JEAN GOODWILL has four medium-speed diesel engines geared to two controllable pitch propellers in nozzles. She has two eight-cylinder MaK 8M32 and two six-cylinder MaK 6M32 diesel engines rated at 3,840 kW (5,150 hp) and 2,880 kW (3,860 hp) each. With a total propulsion power of 13,440 kW (18,020 hp), she can achieve a maximum speed of 16 knots (30 km/h; 18 mph) in open water and break 1-metre (3.3 ft) ice at a continuous speed of 3 knots (5.6 km/h; 3.5 mph). In addition, she has two bow thrusters (one fixed, one retractable and azimuthing) and one transverse stern thruster for maneuvering and dynamic positioning.

BALDER VIKING (2000–2018)
She has been employed supplying offshore arctic petroleum drilling expedition.
In February 2010 BALDER VIKING, VIDAR VIKING and LAKE VIKING were chartered by Edinburgh-based oil company Cairn Energy UK PLC for four months, starting in June 2010, for drilling operations in Baffin Bay.
2017 Her homeport was Mandal, Norway.

CCGS JEAN GOODWILL
In 2016, Davie Shipbuilding began offering BALDER VIKING and her sister ships as a replacement to the ageing Canadian Coast Guard icebreakers under the moniker Project Resolute. In addition to the three Swedish icebreaking offshore vessels, the offer also included a fourth slightly bigger and more powerful vessel: the US-flagged AIVIQ..

On 10 August 2018, Viking Supply Ships announced the sale of its three vessels to Her Majesty the Queen in Right of Canada for $274 million. Once retrofitted at Davie Shipbuilding, the vessels are expected to remain in service in the Canadian Coast Guard for 15 to 25 years.
BALDER VIKING will be named CCGS JEAN GOODWILL after Jean Cuthand Goodwill (1928–1997), a Canadian Cree nurse who, in 1954, became Saskatchewan's first Aboriginal woman to finish a nursing program.

2019 Owned by Department of Fisheries & Oceans, Canada Coast Guard. If she is already in service I could not find, her last position was Quebec
