Lease language limiting size of unit per well or horizontal well bore

Shales Marcellus Shale

Has anyone seen some good lease language to limit the unit size so the number of horizontal wells per unit is a well per acreage number or maybe horizonal well bore length? Such as - a unit can not have less than 1 well per 100 acres or a unit can not have less than 2000ft horizonal well bore per 100 acres?

I am trying to protect myself from signing lease that will allow one horizontal well in a 640 acre unit with very short lateral run.

Klaus, do you still need help with this? I'm a WV attorney. If you need good language for a WV well, I can do that. Message me.
