@Override
        public void init(IViewSite site) throws PartInitException {
            super.init(site);
            site.getActionBars().getToolBarManager().remove("org.eclipse.ui.file.close");
       }

I guess you are using Eclipse legacy. Perhaps you can take a look at addStandaloneView() method in IPageLayout : view’s title can be hidden and no more close button. Can be used in Perspective createInitialLayout() method.
