My preference is to be able to get a crane-truck on every side of each machine (but I can live with a pipe rack on the end away from the cooler), and to be able to get a crane within a reasonable distance of the compressors. Practically, 12-16 ft skid-edge to skid-edge seems to work well if you designate a clear area for a picker (usually 20-25 ft on the cooler-end works).
One big problem is people that want to put pipe racks on both ends of the machine so you can't get a maintenance truck near enough to jump a damn battery. As long as you've considered both access and air-flow requirements you should be fine.

To limit fire spreading, you may think about putting a few units close together, then have a 50 foot gap to the next series of units.
