Please answer the given financial question based on the context.
Context: discount to brent was narrower in 2013 than in 2012 and 2011 . as a result of the significant increase in u.s . production of light sweet crude oil , the historical relationship between wti , brent and lls pricing may not be indicative of future periods . composition 2013 the proportion of our liquid hydrocarbon sales volumes that are ngls continues to increase due to our development of united states unconventional liquids-rich plays . ngls were 15 percent of our north america e&p liquid hydrocarbon sales volumes in 2013 compared to 10 percent in 2012 and 7 percent in 2011 . natural gas 2013 a significant portion of our natural gas production in the u.s . is sold at bid-week prices , or first-of-month indices relative to our specific producing areas . average henry hub settlement prices for natural gas were 31 percent higher for 2013 than for 2012 . international e&p liquid hydrocarbons 2013 our international e&p crude oil production is relatively sweet and has historically sold in relation to the brent crude benchmark , which on average was 3 percent lower for 2013 than 2012 . natural gas 2013 our major international e&p natural gas-producing regions are europe and e.g . natural gas prices in europe have been considerably higher than the u.s . in recent years . in the case of e.g. , our natural gas sales are subject to term contracts , making realized prices in these areas less volatile . the natural gas sales from e.g . are at fixed prices ; therefore , our reported average international e&p natural gas realized prices may not fully track market price movements . oil sands mining the oil sands mining segment produces and sells various qualities of synthetic crude oil . output mix can be impacted by operational problems or planned unit outages at the mines or upgrader . sales prices for roughly two-thirds of the normal output mix has historically tracked movements in wti and one-third has historically tracked movements in the canadian heavy crude oil marker , primarily wcs . the wcs discount to wti has been increasing on average in each year presented below . despite a wider wcs discount in 2013 , our average oil sands mining price realizations increased due to a greater proportion of higher value synthetic crude oil sales volumes compared to 2012 . the operating cost structure of the oil sands mining operations is predominantly fixed and therefore many of the costs incurred in times of full operation continue during production downtime . per-unit costs are sensitive to production rates . key variable costs are natural gas and diesel fuel , which track commodity markets such as the aeco natural gas sales index and crude oil prices , respectively . the table below shows average benchmark prices that impact both our revenues and variable costs: .
|benchmark|2013|2012|2011|
|wti crude oil ( dollars per bbl )|$ 98.05|$ 94.15|$ 95.11|
|wcs ( dollars per bbl ) ( a )|$ 72.77|$ 73.18|$ 77.97|
|aeco natural gas sales index ( dollars per mmbtu ) ( b )|$ 3.08|$ 2.39|$ 3.68|
wcs ( dollars per bbl ) ( a ) $ 72.77 $ 73.18 $ 77.97 aeco natural gas sales index ( dollars per mmbtu ) ( b ) $ 3.08 $ 2.39 $ 3.68 ( a ) monthly pricing based upon average wti adjusted for differentials unique to western canada . ( b ) monthly average day ahead index. .
Question: how much more was the average wti crude price than the wcs price in 2012?
