Why do you want to de-register? de-register is only done when you want to use the same SIM on a non-iOS device.

If you still have an iPhone and want to stop iMessages on that number simply go to

Settings > Messages > iMessage [Disable]

Settings > FaceTime > FaceTime [Disable]

That's it.

Probably you are wanting to remove this old number from Apple ID. If that is so watch the GIF below

Where is the SIM with the Old Number? If it is not with you or you have given it back to the Carrier Service Provider, then don't bother about it. You don't have to de-register rather you won't be able to deregister if you do not have the old SIM with you.

If you have it with you and want to use it with an Android device then put the SIM on any Phone (Apple or Android) and follow the GIF

Insert the same SIM into an Android or an iPhone. You may deregister iMessage online

Watch the GIF below. Here I have used another iPhone for the demo but for you, it may your choice. Android or iPhone device.
