The commission session opened in Russia on Sunday and came to an end on Tuesday.
It was co-chaired by Iranian Minister of Petroleum Javad Owji on the Iranian side and Russian Deputy Prime Minister and Energy Minister Alexander Novak on the Russian side.
On the last day of the session, Owji and Novak signed a strategic document on expansion of bilateral relations.
Other senior officials from both sides also signed three other agreements on health cooperation, and pipeline laying projects and taking a loan for electrifying Inchebron-Garmsar railway.
Owji said a day earlier that cooperation between Iran and Russia can thwart the international sanctions on the two countries.
Iran-Russia relations have never been so close, the minister said, adding that the time is ripe for further enhancement of cooperation with Russia.
