As far as I know, neither NSFC or SSFC employ expats.
They finished using expats on their 332L2 fleet in about 1996/7 after both Bristow and the at that time Helikopter Service finished their technical service contracts.

They prefer local operators, but the big boys do have the money to bring in locals.
