Is fuel consumption (base fuel and burn rate) for the ER and the LR the same? Tha AOM only mentions the ER. Thanks!

The 772LR features raked wingtips, larger fuel tanks, larger wings (212 ft wingspan vs 199) and more efficient engines. The LR range is approx 9380nm while the ER range is 7700nm. The LR carries some 2000 gallons more fuel as well.
