Unless Ubuntu has done something strange it should just be a matter of
removing any references to that partition from the /etc/fstab file so
they don't get mounted. To be really sure you could remove the swapon
commands from the appropriate /etc/rc files.
You can use swapon -s to check what swap partitions are currently in
use.
You can use swapoff to turn off swap partitions manually (not
permanent).
