BP reported progress as it neared the end of a 48-hour pressure test on the cap.

On Thursday, BP closed the vents on the cap and finally stopped crude from spewing into the Gulf of Mexico - for the first time since the April 20 oil rig explosion that killed 11 workers and unleashed the spill about 1.6 kilometres below the surface.

Officials were worried about leaking because pressure readings from the cap were not rising as high as expected on Friday, indicating that oil may be escaping.

Kent Wells, a BP vice-president, said during a Saturday morning conference call that pressure inside the cap was slightly above the last level announced late Friday.

That level, recorded a day after the flow of oil was choked off, measured about 6,700 pounds per square inch. BP says it wants a pressure reading closer to 7,500 psi and may extend the 48-hour test.
