As per a notice published on the codal.ir-- an information platform for publishing key stock market data and listed companies-- each salaf contract has an equivalent value of one barrel of oil. 
Heavy crude oil is priced at 9.446 million rials (about $42). Those interested can buy the salaf contracts for minimum one barrel and maximum 20,000 barrels.
