An apparatus and associated a method are described for performing gas analysis on a gas sample. The method comprising exciting the gas sample with one or more electromagnetic energy sources and obtaining optical absorption signals associated with the gas sample prior to application of a catalytic process to the gas sample as well as during and/or after application of the catalytic process to the gas sample. The obtained optical absorption signals may then be processed using differential calculation approaches to derive information associated with the gas sample, which may include for example information conveying concentrations of certain specific gases in the gas sample. In some implementations, the optical absorption measurement system is configured to use the one or more electromagnetic energy sources to excite the gas sample to produce first optical absorption signals. The optical absorption measurement system is also configured to apply a catalytic process to the gas sample to derive a modified gas sample and to use the one or more electromagnetic energy sources to excite the modified gas sample to produce second optical absorption signals. Information may then be derived at least in part by processing the first optical absorption signals and second optical absorption signals. The apparatus and associated method may find practical uses in a variety of fields including, without being limited to, the field of dissolved gas analysis (DGA) for detecting/monitoring faults in liquid-insulated electrical equipment as well as equipment used for mine safety, particularly coal mines; equipment for analyzing gases that emerge from the bore hole during drilling for natural gas and oil and equipment for identifying gas leaks in underground natural gas lines as well as other areas.
