Dirty air filter, intake has a leak to open air so it is getting dirt sucked in and wearing the cylinders at an alarming rate,worn/brokrn rings, somebody draining some out for their car/truck at night while setting If turboed turbine bearing getting bad. IF the last item look at that very hard. If it goe s to burning the crankcase oil only way to shut it down is ti smother it by closing off the air intake. Shutting off fuel will not do it. And in the end it will probably put a rod through the block as it runs away with itself. You will also need an engine then as the bearings ,crank,and rods will be shot from no oil as it stops. Turbo will be shot too. I'd quit using till I had a chance to look closer at it. Cheaper than the engine result. Burning that much oil daily should be coating the exhaust. If this is idling all day it could be just pushing the oil out the exhaust. IF it was, you would see it running down the outside of the pipe though with that much. Is it leaking fuel into the crankcase? That would help with it using oil by diluting the oil and allowing it to Wash out the rings and burn easier. The reason you don't want to idle diesels for long periods of time.
